Plain water because the salt in the other water lowers the freezing point. All molecules must line up in order to freeze, therefore if adding salt, the Na and CL must line up with the water molecules in order to freeze. With plain water, the molecules line up faster and thus freeze faster.

Zinc will corrode in vinegar faster than salt water
What melts faster milk or water?
of course they can be cut into a square. if you peel the skin of and cut it into pieces you can cut it into a square, rectangle, and many other shapes.
Does water freeze faster in plastic or metal?
it would melt faster in a glass container faster.
Does salt water freeze faster than fresh water?
Salt freezes slower (i.e. at a lower temperature) than fresh water. Generally the greater the level of dissolved substances, the harder it is for ice crystals to form, so the greater the level of cooling required. Completely saturated saltwater freezes at -6°F / -21.1° C. == ==
Does sound travel faster in fresh water or salt water?
it depends on the circumstances. boat type, wind..... In a controlled environment where water temp,current, and wind are equal you will be faster in fresh water. this is because fresh water is less dense thus creating less resistance. on the other hand you float higher in saltwater which can also create less drag. However mathematically because of the resistance of saltwater you can calculate that you will be able to go faster in fresh water despite floating higher in saltwater. Its not much faster. I haven't calculated it but if I had to guess maybe 1-2% faster. A more dramatic example would be easier to understand. lets compare freshwater vs mud or somewhat diluted mud 50 50. its a lot easier to figure out which you will go faster in. My boat will practically sit on top of the mud. less drag right? This is what most people think saltwater does for them. How fast are you going to go in mud? Not hard to figure that out. there is too much resistance, you probably wont go anywhere. Apply this same logic to saltwater vs fresh and you can see that the more dense a solution is the more resistance it will have.
Which liquid freezes faster water saltwater or sugarwater?
saltwater
Does saltwater or sugar water freeze faster?
Sugar water freezes faster trust me I know.
Does plainwater contract like other liquids when it freezes?
No. H2O expands as it freezes. I am a little rusty on my chemistry, but I remember it having something to do with dual-polarity (?) of a water molecule.
Which kind of water freezes faster?
