Salt melts ice essentially because adding salt lowers the freezing point of the water. Pure water freezes at 32F. Water with salt, or any other substance in it, will freeze at some lower temperature.

When NaCl is combined with H2o it increases the temperature and causes the snow to melt.

Sprinkling salt on icy roads doesn't warm up the ice. What it does is depress the freezing point of water to the point where the ice is too warm to be solid, even though it is just as cold as before.
adding salt lowers the freeze point of water so it causes the ice to melt at temperatures below 32 degrees. If it get too cold even salt won't help melt the ice.
salt on icy roads give automobile tires more traction.
salt on ice creates a "liquid brine" which generates heat to melt the ice
for sure

Salt melts ice, sand improves tires grip on the road
Rock salt is used to remove ice from sidewalks in the winter, because the freezing point of salty water is much lower than that of pure water. Salt is commonly used on icy roads, but alternative methods are being investigated in some areas.
The salt used on icy roads in winter is quarried from underground salt deposits (salt mines), which are the remains of ancient salty seas. Salt is not extracted from fresh water.

The definition after the Longman dictionary is: "a large vehicle that puts salt or sand on the roads in winter to make them less icy".

to melt the ice put salt
Adding salt the freezing point of water is lowered.

Sprinkling salt on icy roads melts the ice, allowing the drivers to have more friction so their cars don't slip off the road and go out of control.

Yes, because beet root extract melts ice quicker than salt which would help your community out during the cold winter times.
Salt rock is the same as rock salt also known at grit it is used on roads when they are icy or when it has been snowing or has been cold! :)
