I don't know how much it is affected, by yes it is affected. I would say insignificantly though.

Could the freezing point of water be lowered with the addition of salt?
Yes
True or false the freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
false
Does solute effect the freezing point of water?
the temperature at which the solution freezes is lowered.
How does salt keep wet roads from freezing in the cold weather?
The freezing point of water is lowered because by dissolution salt release heat.
What is meant by the medical term or ailment 'freezing point depression'?
Freezing point depression is not a medical term, but a term of physics. It refers to the scientific concept of when the freezing point of a liquid is lowered by adding something to it. For example: The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celcius, but if salt is added to water, the freezing point is lower, and will still be a liquid at 0 degrees.
The freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
yes
Is it true the freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
yea
Could the freezing point of water be lowered with the addition of salt?
Yes
True or false the freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
false
Does salt affest the freezing point of water and why?
The addition of salt to water will affect the freezing point as it the freezing point temperature is lowered. It's not the salt that lowers the temperature but it's because a new solution that was created.
What is a freezing point depression?
Freezing point depression is when the normal freezing temperature of a liquid is lowered by the addition of another solate for example the freezing temperature of fresh water can be lowered by the introduction of salt. This is why when salt is laid over snow the snow melts because the salt combines with the water in the snow and thereby increases it's freezing temperature.
Is true that the freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
Yes, different salts will lower it by different amounts. Other things will also lower the freezing point when added to water (e.g. alcohols, ethylene glycol, sugars).
What is the effect of pH on the freeziing point of water?
If the water contain impurities the freezing point is lowered.
What does salt have to do with the freezing point of water?
Adding salt to water the freezing point decrease.
Does solute effect the freezing point of water?
the temperature at which the solution freezes is lowered.
Does salt affect the temperature of water -boiling point - freezing point?
i would opt for the Freezing point. salt decreases the freezing point of water. so if water would normally freeze at 0C, saltwater would freeze at -3C.
The freezing point of water can be lowered by adding?
By adding any "foreign" molecules or ions. Such as if u add sugar or salt to water, it will lower the freezing point of water.
