Saltwater freezes into ice at a temperature below 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The exact freezing point can vary depending on the salinity or concentration of salt in the water. Generally, the presence of salt lowers the freezing point of water compared to pure water.

Is salt water colder then ice?
well for something to freeze it has to be 0 degrees or lower which is what ice is, frozen water. so the water has to be 1 degree or more to NOT freeze so the ice is colder than salt watercoz salt water is not frozen... does t6hat make sense? Actually, salt water CAN be colder than ice because the salt lowers the freezing point of the water.
When does ice freeze on Celsius scale?
The freezing point of water is 0 degree Celsius.
Do rock salt or table salt freeze homemade ice cream faster?
No. But ice and water with table salt dissolved in it, can.The salt lowers the freezing temperature of the water, so that it can remainliquid even when it's below 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius). In that condition,it can be used to cool the can in which the ice cream ingredients are mixed, andcan freeze it faster than solid normal ice could.
Do you add salt to the ice or the ice cream ingredients?
You add salt to ice to lower the temperature of the ice/water mixture. Without the salt, the temperature would not fall below 32.F, which is not cold enough to make ice cream. The freezing point of salt water is below that temperature and thus allows the cream to partially freeze, a necessary part of making ice cream Salt causes water to freeze at a much lower temperature. Adding salt to the ice causes the temperature of the brine solution to drop dramatically, while freezing the ice cream inside the container.
Why salt is used in hilly areas to remove ice but on the other hand it would be used ice factory for making ice?
Salt is not used for making ice, because all you have to do to make ice is freeze water.

Why can't salt water freeze?
beacause salt melts ice.
What causes salt to melt water?
Salt lowers the freezing temperature of water/ice therefore the water/ice needs to be colder then usual to freeze.
Can you separate salt from water if you freeze it?
it is not possible to seperate salt from the ice....bcoz...it is mixed up with water and if we make ithe ice into powder we can't seperate the salt from it...
What will melt ice faster salt or water?
Salt because water especially hot water will make it freeze faster.
Why salted water cannot freeze?
because salt melts ice
Can saltwater and freshwater freeze different or the same?
Salt water needs to be much colder than fresh water to freeze because salt melts ice.
If you put salt on ice does it freeze or get cold faster?
Salt lowers the temperature at which water freezes which would cause the ice to melt.
Will water freeze on sand?
yes, it can. the reason people think it can't is because the sand at the beach is salty, and salt makes ice melt. so, with no salt involved, water can freeze
When does ice freeze on Celsius scale?
The freezing point of water is 0 degree Celsius.
Why is it important that salt lowers the freezingpoint of water?
if you don't want things to freeze or ice over you can add salt... that's why they salt the roads in winter so the water molecules in the air wont freeze on the surface of the road
Which will freeze the faster between salt water sugar water and tap water?
Tap Water because adding substances to the water (salt or sugar) reduce the rate at which water will form ice crystals, making it freeze at a lower temperature.
