when salt dissolves in water it doesn't allow the water to get warm because it traps the heat within the water, therefore keepin the water cold.
...and a little thing called specific gravity comes into play....the water with specific gravity of 1 is now salt water with a different specific gravity depending on the salinity. Consider alcohol; it has no salt but does not freeze right? Beer's sg is slightly higher than water so it wont freeze til perhaps 30F.
What else can I help you with?
How can the salt melt the ice even when the salt is cold?
Salt lowers the freezing point of water by disrupting the formation of ice crystals. When salt is added to ice, it mixes with the thin layer of liquid water on the ice's surface, forming a saltwater solution. This solution has a lower freezing point than pure water, causing the ice to melt even though the salt itself is cold.
Does ice melt fastest in cold water cold air warm air or warm water?
Warm air and warm water. Cold air and cold water keep ice cooler longer.
What causes seawater to become more dense?
Seawater becomes more dense when the temperature decreases or when salinity increases. Cold water is denser than warm water, and water with higher salt content is denser than water with lower salt content.
Can you use salt and chlorine in your pool?
Yes as a mater of fact that is what salt water pool normally is. With a salt water pool there is a electronic salt water chlorinator installed that uses the salt in the water to create chlorine. However if you don't have a salt water chlorinator and prefer the feeling of a salt water pool then there is no reason not to add salt to the pool as well as keeping up the chlorine yourself.
When salt is dissolved in water what is the water?
The salt is the solute and the water is the solvent. Water is the solvent because it is what dissolves the solid salt into the solution. The water molecules pull apart the crystal structure of salt and surround the salt ions.
Does Cold water keep ice cold?
The water would have to be colder than the ice to keep it cold. That is not possible unless it is brine(salt water). Then ice at 32f could be cooled by brine at say 30f.
How does salt keep wet roads from freezing in the cold weather?
The freezing point of water is lowered because by dissolution salt release heat.
Is warm salt water more dense than cold salt water?
Cold water is more dense.
Which water will freeze faster cold water with salt or normal water with salt?
normal water with salt
How does cold water affect how salt dissolves?
Cold water simply slows down the rate at which salt dissolves.
What happens to salt when it is put into cold water and stirred?
When salt is added to cold water and stirred, the salt crystals dissolve in the water. This process is known as dissolution, where the salt molecules break apart from the crystal structure and mix evenly with the water molecules. It may take longer for salt to dissolve in cold water compared to hot water due to the lower kinetic energy of the molecules.
Why does water freezes faster then salt water?
the salt prevents the water from getting cold
Will add salt to ice water help keep soda cold?
Yes, it will keep the soda cold because the salt help the ice not to melt. Don't believe me check it yourself. Get an ice cube put a little salt on it and it doest melt. Or get an ice cube put some salt on it and then get a string put on top and IT WILL STICK!!!!!!!
What is the freezing point of hot salt water?
Same as the cold salt water.
What is the materials of hot and cold water with salt?
Hot water typically consists of H2O molecules and salt. Cold water with salt is also made up of H2O molecules and dissolves the salt in its solution.
What is the densest cold salt water warm salt water cold fresh water warm fresh water?
Cold Salt Water is the densest. When there is less heat in a liquid, the particles are closer together. The salt also saturates the water and makes it even denser. That's why boats float better in Cold Salt Water than in Warm Fresh Water. P.S. Next time, put commas between the options. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sources: Grade 8 Science
what dissolves faster in hot or cold water salt or sugar?
salt in hot water
