Of course not!!! If you added salt to fresh water, it wouldn't be fresh, anymore . . . gees.
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.
The freezing point of salted water is lower than the freezing point of pure water; this is a phenomenon known as freezing point depression when a solute exist in the solution.
it lowers the freezing point of the water
Eh, freezing point of what? Fresh water is uncomplicated, that is zero degrees Celsius.
it rises
sea water doesnt freeze faster than fresh water, fresh water freezes faster than sea water as it has a lower freezing point than sea water has as sea water contains salt which makes the boiling/freezing points increase therefore making the sea water freeze at a lower temperature.
The salt in the water lowers its freezing point, causing the water to become colder than 0 degrees Celsius. This rapid transfer of heat from the fresh water to the iced salt water speeds up the freezing process of the fresh water in the test tube.
If the water contain impurities the freezing point is lowered.
Pure fresh water freezes at 0° C. Average for sea water is about -2° C. In a solution of more extreme salinity, the freezing point might be depressed to as low as -30° C.
The freezing point of fresh water under normal conditions.
32 F or 0 centigrade
The freezing point of saltwater is lower than the freezing point of freshwater upto a specific ratio of salt & water. The freezing point goes below upto -11 C, but if you increase the salt content thereafter the freezing point will increase above 0 c. The sal and water mixture is usually termed as "Brine"
