Because salt dissolves into water. The resulting mix (salty water) has a lower freezing point.
Pepper does not dissolve into water.
Yes. Salt lowers the freezing point of water whereas pepper probably has little or no effect.
salt
Salt water will melt an ice cube faster.
sugar melts ice the fastest. i did a science experiment and my question was does salt sugar or pepper melt ice faster and my answer was sugar try it
Salt - maximum change in melting point.
Salt cubes will also melt at temperatures of -38
"The ice cube without salt melts because the air around it is warmer than 32 degrees F. The salted cube melts faster. When you add salt it dissolves into the water of the ice cube. Salt water freezes at a lower temperature than the 32 degrees F at which freshwater freezes. The difference between the air temperature and the freezing point of salt water is bigger than the difference between the air temperature and the freezing point of freshwater. This makes the ice with salt on it melt faster." ("Salt and Ice." Salt and Ice. N.p., n.d. Web. 23 Nov. 2015.)

An ice cube melts faster in salt water.
yes.
You need to determine what you think will melt the fastest, and that will be your hypothesis. If you think that pepper will melt it faster, you would say "My hypothesis is that the pepper will melt ice faster than the other variables (sand, salt, and sugar)."
Yes it does, in northern states when it snows they use ice to melt the streets.
salt
Salt would melt the ice cube faster because if you have noticed, people put down salt to melt the ice.
yes as the salt dissolves lowering the ices freezing point!!
