What else can I help you with?
What melts ice other than salt?
Other substances that can melt ice include sugar, sand, calcium chloride, and urea. These substances lower the freezing point of water, causing it to melt at temperatures below the usual freezing point of 0 degrees Celsius.
How the salt melt?
heat
Do substances other than salt help melt ice cubes?
well water but other than that sugar
Does ice melt faster with substances?
yes salt
When you spill sodium chloride onto a stove while cooking why does it not melt?
Sodium chloride, or table salt, has a high melting point of about 801 degrees Celsius (1474 degrees Fahrenheit). Most stovetops do not reach temperatures high enough to melt salt; even at high heat, it will remain solid. When salt is spilled on a hot stove, it may heat up and can potentially caramelize or react with other substances, but it won't melt under typical cooking conditions.
What are some other types of things you can melt other than ice?
You can apply heat, which makes the particles move faster. You can add salt (or many other substances, but salt is cheap) to depress the freezing point. You can put the ice under pressure; this is what happens under an ice skate blade so you glide on a thin film of water.
Can something else melt ice instead of salt and sugar?
Heat, that's the only other thing I know of
If you use a blow torch what happens when you try to melt salt?
When you try to melt salt with a blow torch, the salt will initially absorb the heat and start to melt, becoming a liquid. However, if you continue to heat the molten salt with the blow torch, it will eventually evaporate and release fumes of sodium chloride.
Why doesn't salt melt in the heat?
It does. Salt, or sodium chloride, melts at 801C or 1474F.
How does salt make ice melt faster?
The salt dissolving in the water creates heat which then melts the ice.
What is the best method to melt ice?
probably salt will do the best not including heat
What substance melts ice most efficiently sugar salt pepper or artificial sweetener?
== == Salt lowers the freezing point of water by 32 degrees. If salt is sprinkled onto ice, it causes the ice to melt by a heat transfer. Out of the substances listed, salt would melt ice most efficiently.
