The freezing point will be lower. That means that the normal temperature that worked before now will have to be lower. This is one reason that salt is used on icy roads and sidewalks and stairs.

What happens if salt water is mixed with salt and then place in the freezer?

The freezing point of that salt solution will get even lower in temperature


What happens to the properties of each substances when water is mixed with salt?

When water is mixed with salt, the properties of the salt remain unchanged. However, the properties of the water may change, such as its boiling and freezing points. The salt dissolves in the water, forming a homogeneous solution.


What happens if you mix salt with water?

The freezing point of the water is lowered. ADD: You get a salt water solution.


What is a good hypothesis for can you separate salt from water by freezing?

A possible hypothesis could be: "If salt is mixed with water and the solution is frozen, then the salt will not separate from the water, as both salt and water will freeze together into a solid."


What happens when you put two trays of salt water and pure water into the freezer?

The pure water will freeze first since it has a lower freezing point than salt water. The salt in the salt water reduces its freezing point, so it will take longer to freeze compared to the pure water.


What happens if you put water into salt water?

Salt will dissolve in water. Adding salt will lower the temperature of water by a few degrees Celsius as well as lower the freezing point.


Will a temperature of a beaker of water increase or decrease when its mixed with salt?

This is the typr of experiment that is performed with a 'Slurry' of ice and water in the beaker, and not just room temperature water. Adding salt to a slurry will cause some of the ice to melt. When ice melts, the temperature of the solution will drop, and potentially below the freezing point of pure water.If the water and salt are at room temperature, the mixing will yield no significant changes in temperature.


What is occur when salt is evenly mixed with water?

When salt is evenly mixed with water, it dissolves into the water forming a homogeneous solution. This happens because the salt molecules interact with the water molecules, breaking apart into ions that are uniformly distributed throughout the water.


Does water mixed with salt affect the taste?

Water mixed with salt does not affect the taste,bt it also depend on the amount of water mixed with the salt and the quantity of salt mixed with the water


What happens when salt and sand are mixed with water?

When salt and sand are mixed with water, the salt dissolves in the water, forming a saltwater solution, while the sand does not dissolve and remains as a solid. This allows you to separate the sand from the saltwater solution through methods like filtration or evaporation.


What happened when salt and water are mixed?

The salt will dissolve into the water. If the water becomes saturated with salt (it cannot absorb any more) the water will eventually evaporate into the air leaving behind a crystal like formation in the bottom of whatever the two were mixed in.


How does salt keep water from freezing on your roadways?

Salt lowers the freezing temperature of water, which means that it has to be colder for the water to freeze.
