Ice cream makers that consist of a container enclosed in a larger bucket of chunks of ice include salt with that ice because the salt lowers the temperature of the entire mixture. The salt causes the ice to melt, creating a drop in the temperature of the resulting icy salt water.

Salt and ice?
Added salt lower the frezing point of water; this is important for the use as an deicing material or for ice cream preparation.
What is Morton Ice Cream Salt?
I believe that Morton Ice Cream Salt is just standard rock salt, used in making homemade ice cream.
What is the rule of salt in the ice cream cart?
Salt is used to keep the ice cream cold, and it is also what you use to make the ice cold enough in a machine, to make the cream form into a solid.
Why don't you mix salt with ice cream?
Salt melts ice so salt will melt ice cream.
What is in ice cream salt?
yes most ice cream contains salt
Can you use different salt for ice cream?
no,because if you put a salt in ice cream the ice cream will be tasted not nice
How do you separate ice cream and salt?
You can't really separate salt and ice cream and still end up with ice cream and salt. However, you can recover just the salt.
Why is salt needed for ice cream in an ice cream maker?
because salt makes the ice colder allowing the ice cream to freeze faster!
Why is salt added to ice cream when your making homemade ice cream in an ice cream in a ice cream freezer?
You add salt to ice to lower the temperature of the ice/water mixture. Without the salt, the temperature would not fall below 32F, which is not cold enough to make ice cream. The freezing point of salt water is below that temperature and thus allows the cream to partially freeze, a necessary part of making ice cream Salt causes water to freeze at a much lower temperature. Adding salt to the ice causes the temperature of the brine solution to drop dramatically, while freezing the ice cream inside the container. As the ice melts, the "heat" of the ice mass is preserved by lowering the temperature. (It's called "latent heat") It takes approximately 80 calories of energy to melt a gram of ice. That latent heat principle is used to lower the temperature of melting ice, thereby allowing the ice cream to freeze. It's an example of simple physics and is described in most physics books and physics classes.
How is rock salt used when making ice cream?
there are particals that they use.
What physical properties are used to separate salt from water?
the physical properties are gold and ice cream due to the salt being covered by the gold and the ice cream being in my belly.
Why is ice stored with common salt and stored in ice cream factories?
Salt on the ice slows the melting process and is an ingredient in ice cream.
