Salt will tend to make ice melt. This is because impurities tend to lower the freezing point of a liquid. This means that while pure water freezes at 0 degrees Centigrade salty water is still liquid at the same temperature.

Which is colder frozen water or frozen salt water at melting points?

The freezing point of salted water is lower compared with the freezing point of pure water. So when melting frozen salt water is colder.


Frozen salt water melt faster then frozen fresh water?

Salt lowers the melting or freezing point of water. The effect is termed 'freezing point depression'. Therefore frozen salt water melts faster and remain melted for long.


If sea water is frozen will the salt go away?

no, the salt wont go away it will just be inside the frozen water i don't think salt freezes though.


If salt water freezes does the salt freeze to?

If the salt is still in the water it will freeze inside the water so its technically frozen


Can you separate water from salt when frozen?

No, not from the frozen state. If a saline solution (dissolved salt in water) is gently heated, the water will evaporate, leaving salt crystals behind. If the water vapour is captured and condensed, the result is drinking water.


Is frozen salt water heavier than frozen water?

The density of saline water is greater than the density of pure water.


Can salt water be disalted by freezing?

No, it just turns into frozen salt water. What you should do is evaporate the water and then you'll be left with salt crystals.


Will fresh water be completely frozen before salt water?

yes


Does Salt separate from sea water when frozen?

yes


What does table salt do to water when frozen?

salt lowers the freezing point of water. so the temperature that salt water freezes at is much lower than just 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.


Does salt water separate when frozen?

When a mixture of salt and water freeze, the two substances will not separate. The mixture will just become frozen salt water.
