We can use sodium, calcium and potassium chlorides; NaCl is the cheapest, calcium chloride is the most efficient but is more expensive.

What do you think salt does to the melting point of ice?
Salt lowers the melting point of ice.
What are examples of melting ice and dissolving salt in water?
Ice melting in a glass, salt in the ocean
When you add salt to ice what happens to the melting point of the ice?
Adding salt to ice decreases its melting point. Adding salt to the top of ice helps melt the ice faster.
Will the melting point of ice increase or decrease when salt is added on it?
The melting point of ice decreases when salt is added.
How come ice with salt melts faster than ice with no salt?
Since impurities decrease melting point of solid ,so ice mixed with salt has lower melting point then pure ice .
Why if you left an ice cube and salt at the sun the ice cube melts and the salt doesnt?
Because the melting temperature of the ice is 32°F and the melting temperature of the salt is 1,474°F.
Why does salt prevent ice from forming on sidewalk?
salt lowers ice's melting point
Discusion for does salt affect the melting rate of ice?
Salt lower the freezing point of ice.
What are irreversible materials?
melting choalate,melting ice ,dissolving salt in water
Does salt stop ice from melting?
No, salt does not stop ice from melting. In fact if the temperature is not too low it will cause ice to melt.
What when applied to snow or ice lowers the melting point of the mixture?
Salt lowers the melting point of snow and ice.
What is in the salt that slows down the melting of ice?
Salt doesnt slow down the melting of ice. It actually speeds up the melting in most cases because the addition of salt lowers the temperature required for the water to freeze. That's why they will often put salt on the roads after a snow storm...to melt the ice.
