Salt can be used to depress the freezing point of water. For example, to delay the freezing of water on roads during winter, salt can be applied to the roads before the water on the surface reaches the freezing point. Consequently, the salt will dissolve in the water and force the freezing point down by an amount proportional to the mole fraction of salt present. As a result, the water will not freeze at 0 degrees Celsius but instead will freeze at some lower temperature, keeping ice off the road. This is an example of the colligative properties of matter.
