Please note that ammonia LOWERS the freezing point of water; at a certain (somewhat colder) temperature, the ammonia / water mixture will still freeze.

Ammonia mixed with water is NOT an example of a chemical reaction at all.
NOT endothermic and NOT exothermic.
WHY? A chemical reaction occurs when the chemicals you start with are different from the ones you end up with: not a state change, but an identity change.
(from here on, substitute the word AMMONIA instead of KCl or potassium chloride; the text is borrowed from a similar answer with the same concept)
--
After the KCl and water are mixed, you still have KCl and water.
This is NOT a chemical reaction.
Why does the temperature decrease?
FREEZING POINT DEPRESSION and melting point elevation often occur when substances are mixed.
In the situation described by the other respondent, the water immediately got colder when KCl was added. This is because the water was at its freezing/ melting point, in a cold room; when the water gets cold enough, it will all crystallize into a solid - frozen - crystalline matrix. BUT when the KCl (or salt, or any of a variety of substances) is added, this interferes with the crystallization process, so that more heat energy must be lost in order for the molecules to lock into their crystalline matrix. THEREFORE in that particular situation, the water was first mostly frozen with some liquid areas remaining at a low temperature...then KCl was added, and the crystals were broken apart, more able to release heat/ vibrate until a new freezing point, colder than before, is reached.
Research freezing point depression for more information.
"Nitrogen" in fertilizer is in the form of bioavailable nitrogen ... nitrates and/or ammonia salts ... so yes, it would lower the melting point of water and "melt ice" the same way that rock salt does.
Dirt does not melt ice. In fact, dirt can insulate ice, preventing it from melting quickly by forming a barrier between the ice and warmer temperatures. The dark color of dirt can also absorb sunlight and heat, causing the ice to melt more slowly.
Application of heat makes ice melt, so global warming makes lots of ice melt.
When ice sheets melt, the water from the ice flows into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise.
in fact yes.....methanol melt ice as we use methanol to remove the ice formed around some valves "JT valves" in industry..but i dont know how it works yet
keep it in liquid ammonia
Water ice would remain solid in liquid ammonia, because the temperature of the ammonia is well below 0 degrees Celsius, the melting point of ice. At normal atmospheric pressure, ammonia is liquid below minus 33.34 degrees C.
No, ammonia will not melt iron. Ammonia is a compound made of nitrogen and hydrogen, and it does not have the ability to melt metals like iron, which requires much higher temperatures to change its state.
yes
it will become water If you melt an ice cube it will melt
no, but ice melt is a salt

Ice melt is made up of chemicals that are intended to melt ice. These chemicals often include salt as well.
No garlic powder can not melt ice.
No. Ice is simply water in its solid state. Ammonia is a completely different substance.
Clorox is not designed to melt ice. It is a cleaning product that can be harmful if not used properly. To melt ice, it is recommended to use specialized ice melt products that are safe for the environment.
If the oil is warmer than the ice cube then the ice will melt.
