Salt makes ice melt quicker and suger causes the ice to melt slower.
Why sodium chloride used on roads in winter?
because the sodium chloride is salt and we use it in the roads because the salt melt the ice
Does the salt melt ice faster if it can lower the freezing point more?
When you add a salt to ice , the salt lowers the freezing point of the water, keeping it from refreezing as easily and helping to melt the ice. In other word, the salt itself cannot melt ice. So if the Environment temperature is lower than the freezing point, the ice will not melt faster. But , if the temperature is higher than the freezing point, the salt will surely make the melting process faster .
How long does a a 1inch cube of ice take to melt with one spoon of mineral rock salt?

How fast does 2 tablespoons of salt melt 5 pints of melted ice?
Instantly, the ice is already melted. If the ice weren't melted, it would depend on what salt was used and the temperature of the salt and the ice. Certain salts, like magnesium chloride, melt ice much faster and at a lower temperature than table salt. If the ice is really cold it won't melt, regardless of what salt is used.

Does rock salt melt ice faster than epsom salt?
Yes, salt really does melt ice, but it can refreeze if the temperature is low enough. The idea is to create a salt-water mix that has a much lower freezing point. Generally, rock salt may be used, occasionally with other binders such as sand. An alternative to using granular salt is to spray on a solution of brine, sometimes mixed with other minerals or chemicals (usually not ordinary antifreeze because it is ecologically toxic).
