Any solute lowers the freezing point; there's nothing special about NaCl. One way to think about this is that the solute molecules "get in the way" of the freezing process: they don't fit into the regular crystalline lattice of the solid, which makes it harder to go from a liquid to a solid, which means the freezing point goes down.

The solution that will lower the freezing point of water the most is going to be the solution with the highest concentration of particles. This will likely depend on whether the salt dissociates into 2, 3, etc... particles.

If the solutions have the same molality, the salt will produce twice as many dissolved particles (Na+ ions and Cl- ions) but the sugar does not dissociate into particles when dissolved.
The freezing point of water solutions containing sodium chloride is lower.
Dissolved solute (NaCl, salt) will raise the boiling point and lower the freezing point of water. This is known as a colligative property.
The freezing point of the solution depends on the NaCl concentration.

NaCl
Yes, salt can help melt ice by lowering the freezing point of water. When salt is applied to ice, it causes the ice to begin melting since the saltwater mixture has a lower freezing point than plain water.
Yes, because the heat of dissolution in water of NaCl is released and the freezing point of water lowered.
NaCl solution freezes at lower temp. than water but boils at higher temp.than water
The boiling point of the solution increases, and the freezing point of the solution decreases.
when any substance is dissolved in water, it lowers the freezing point of the substance per concentration of solution. NaCl, commonly known as salt, dissolves very readily in water, lowering the freezing point and thus making water freeze at a lower temperature.
The solution that will lower the freezing point of water the most is going to be the solution with the highest concentration of particles. This will likely depend on whether the salt dissociates into 2, 3, etc... particles.
Impurities lower the freezing point of a solution and raise the boiling point, a phenomenon known as freezing point depression and boiling point elevation. This occurs because impurities disrupt the crystal structure formed during freezing and reduce the vapor pressure during boiling, requiring higher or lower temperatures for the phase change to occur.
