Why does salt take longer to boil than water?
Surprisingly, water with a high salt content boils faster than pure water. Salt water may have a higher boiling point than freshwater, but because it takes less energy to increase the temperature of salt water (due to the salt requiring very little energy to heat) the salt water boils faster.
Why does salt dissolve salt faster in hot water?
Salt dissolves faster in hot water because of kinetics. A particle at a higher temperature has more energy and thus will move faster, causing the bonds holding it together to break faster, dissolving the salt crystal faster.
What does salt water do to make people sink?
In fact the level of salt in water causes the opposite. The higher the salt content, the less likely you are to sink. The Dead sea is my example for this.
Will a quarter decompose faster in salt water or fresh water?
salt water, as the salt water eats away at the coin faster.
When salt is added to boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius will the water boil faster or slower?
Slower, at higher temperature that is.
What is the difference between fresh water and ocean?
Ocean water has a higher salinity (salt content) than fresh water does.

What boils faster salt water or plain water?
For salt water to boil faster than plain water, the salt concentration would have to be fairly high. In addition, the salt water would need to be a salt water solution before putting the pot on to heat because of the density of the water content itself.
Why does salt dissolve salt faster in hot water?
Salt dissolves faster in hot water because of kinetics. A particle at a higher temperature has more energy and thus will move faster, causing the bonds holding it together to break faster, dissolving the salt crystal faster.
Why does a ice cube melt faster in fresh water than salt water?
It's because THE TEMPERATURE of the water. The higher temperature the faster melts.
Why does bread mold faster than cheese?
its because cheese has a higher fat and salt content therefore it preserves it better
Why can we float in Dead Sea even if we can't swim?
The higher the salt content of seawater, the more buoyant the water is. And the Dead Sea has the highest salt content of any body of water in the world.
Does water boil faster if it contains salt?
Salty water boils at a higher temperature than pure water does.
What does salt water do to make people sink?
In fact the level of salt in water causes the opposite. The higher the salt content, the less likely you are to sink. The Dead sea is my example for this.
Why does salt water evaporate faster than tap or sugar water in the microwave?
because the salt sucks in the water faster. because the salt sucks in the water faster. because the salt sucks in the water faster.
Does salt water freeze at a higher or lower freezing point than freshwater?
Salt water freezes at a lower temperature because the high salt content in the water lowers the freezing point but not by a lot.
What freeze faster salt or water?
Water will freeze faster than salt water.
