When salt is sprinkled on a candle flame, the salt absorbs the heat, causing the flame to change color slightly and emit a bright yellow light. The salt also reacts with some of the wax vapors, creating additional colors in the flame, such as orange and blue.
Sprinkling salt on a candle while it is burning can help to stabilize and smoothen the flame. The salt can absorb excess liquid wax and prevent excessive dripping. However, too much salt can potentially suffocate the flame, so it's best to use a small amount.
Putting salt on a burning candle can help extinguish the flame by cutting off the oxygen supply. The salt melts and can create a crust over the wick, preventing it from burning. However, adding salt can also generate some smoke and may produce a foul smell.

To do a flame test on low sodium salt, first moisten a wooden splint with water and dip it into the low sodium salt. Then, heat the splint in a Bunsen burner flame and observe the color of the flame. The color produced can help identify any other metal ions present in the salt.
You can't burn table salt very easily, but when you do, it "cackles" and will often fly up. I tried it on cement and a little bit of salt flew up at me. Be VERY careful when doing this with more than one bit of salt.

nothing, it's only effective when salt is sprinkled ON the ice.

The color of the flame depends on the metal from the salt.

because the salt absorbs the water so that it dehydrates and dies
salt melts all ice thus clearing the roads for transport
It Sweats
it dies
The salt reacts chemically with the water in the snow, lowering its melting point. Depending on outside temp, this may be enough to cause the snow/ice to melt.
