∙ 11y agoIt can keep a room warmer or cooler. A polished surface will reflect radiated heat. If the heat is from the sun outside, it will be reflected away from the window and reduce the amount of heat entering the room. If the heat is inside the room while it is cold outside, the foil will reflect it back into the room and reduce the heat loss from the room, so keeping the room warmer.

Why does ice melt when salt is placed on it?
Ice melts when salt is placed on it for two reasons. Firstly, the salt sits on the ice surface, making the surface bumpy. This means that radiation doesn't just reflect away from the ice, but some heat is absorbed. Also, the salt causes impurities in the ice, reducing the melting point.
