No. Although technically a "salt", Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt in it's Heptahydrate form) will not melt snow or ice.
To make magnesium sulfate, you would use sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) as the starting materials. When sulfuric acid is added to magnesium carbonate, it will react to form magnesium sulfate, carbon dioxide, and water.
Magnesium sulfate, also known as Epsom salt, can be beneficial for lawn care when used in moderation. It can help green up the grass by providing magnesium and sulfur, two important nutrients for plant growth. However, overapplication of magnesium sulfate can lead to nutrient imbalances and harm the lawn. It's best to use magnesium sulfate as directed and in combination with a balanced fertilizer for optimal results.
Bitter salt, also known as magnesium sulfate, is a natural mineral compound that is commonly used as a laxative and for therapeutic purposes like relieving sore muscles or treating constipation. It is available in various forms, including Epsom salt for external use and magnesium sulfate supplements for oral use.
Well the main difference between the two is that they are totally different compounds. Magnesium sulfate has derivatives of sulfur and oxygen when magnesisum chloride is a derivitive of chlorine. Magnesium sulfate has a polyatomic ion (sulfate); magnesium chloride is made of a cation and an anion. In the magnesium sulfate, the magnesium and the sulfate ion cancel the charges so the both have a charge of 0. In magnesium chloride, the magnesium cation has a charge of 0 while the chloride anion has a charge of 2-.As for the uses of salts in agriculture, MgSO4 is often encountered as the heptahydrate epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt. In agriculture and gardening, magnesium sulfate is used to correct magnesium deficiency in soil, since magnesium is an essential element in the chorophyll molecule. It is most commonly applied to potted plants, or to magnesium-hungry crops, such as potatoes, roses, tomatoes, peppers and cannabis. The advantage of magnesium sulfate over other magnesium soil amendments (such as dolomitic lime) is its high solubility.As for the magnesium chloride, its uses include using for dust and erosion control and for experimenting anti lipid effects in animals.

To convert milliequivalents (mEq) of magnesium sulfate to milligrams per milliliter (mg/ml), you can use the molecular weight of magnesium sulfate, which is approximately 120.37 g/mol. Since magnesium (Mg) has a valence of +2, 1 mEq of magnesium sulfate corresponds to 60.19 mg. Therefore, 2 mEq of magnesium sulfate is 2 x 60.19 mg, which equals approximately 120.38 mg. If you're considering a 1 ml volume, this would result in about 120.38 mg/ml.

Epsom Salt chemical formula = MgSO4-7H20 use this linc to Wiki for Magnesium Sulphate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_sulfate or another good one (or better) is http://curezone.com/forums/FM.asp?i=61985 Dave e.
You must state the purpose of using MgSO4.
Anhydric Magnesium sulphate can be used as a drying agent for wet organic solvents or solutions of organic compounds in organic solvents. It dries faster than the commonly used anhydric calcium chloride.
One way to quickly melt snow is by using hot water or a shovel to break up and remove the snow. Another method is to use salt or ice melt products to help speed up the melting process.
Epsom salt (or colloquially usually "epsom salts") is an old-fashioned name for magnesium sulfate heptahydrate.
Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate heptahydrate) and calcium chloride (sold as DampRid).
We use it as an abrasive to remove hard water deposits. Can't think of any other reason.
