What effect does chloride salt have on water temperature?
Sodium Chloride- table salt - lowers the water's boiling and freezing point.
What are the effect of impurities on the freezing point of water?
An impurity, such as salt lowers the freezing point of water by interfering with the lattice structure water makes with hydrogen bonding at it's freezing point.
Why does salt can melt a ice cube faster than pepper?
Because salt dissolves into water. The resulting mix (salty water) has a lower freezing point.Pepper does not dissolve into water.
What happens to the freezing point of pure water when grit is added?
That really depends what you mean by grit. If it's just powdered rock, there is no effect. If you mean rock salt, then the freezing point is reduced because the salt dissolves. The lowest freezing point achievable for salt solution is - 21.1 degrees C.
Does salt water freeze at a higher or lower freezing point than freshwater?
Salt water freezes at a lower temperature because the high salt content in the water lowers the freezing point but not by a lot.
Why does salt effect the freezing point of water?
Salt mixes with the water raising it's freezing temperature above normal.
How does salt effect the properties of water?
Salt increases the boiling point of water and lowers its freezing point.
What effect does chloride salt have on water temperature?
Sodium Chloride- table salt - lowers the water's boiling and freezing point.
What kind of salt to use on sidewalks for snow?
Salt works by lowering the melting or freezing point of water. The effect is termed 'freezing point depression'.
Why does salt melt ice faster than sugar or sand?
Salt. Salt dissolves in water, and causes the freezing point to fall; this causes the ice to melt. Sugar does not have this effect, and chalk doesn't dissolve in water.
What are the effect of impurities on the freezing point of water?
An impurity, such as salt lowers the freezing point of water by interfering with the lattice structure water makes with hydrogen bonding at it's freezing point.
Frozen salt water melt faster then frozen fresh water?
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.
Does the amount of salt in water effect the rate at which water frezzes?
Yes, salt lowers the freezing point of water (makes it take longer to freeze)
Dose salt effect the freezing point of fresh water?
Of course not!!! If you added salt to fresh water, it wouldn't be fresh, anymore . . . gees.
Why does salt can melt a ice cube faster than pepper?
Because salt dissolves into water. The resulting mix (salty water) has a lower freezing point.Pepper does not dissolve into water.
What is the effect of the salt by usingthe concept of melting point?
Salt water has a lower freezing point and a higher boiling point.
What does salt have to do with the freezing point of water?
Adding salt to water the freezing point decrease.
