What will be the reaction if you put table salt in ice or snow?
The salt will cause the snow and ice to melt, which it does whenever I sprinkle salt on to my front path during winter, here, in the UK. For more info. search Google with your question and have a look through the websites on the subject.
Do you put down the salt before or after the snow?
It is smarter to put down salt before the snow comes. Once the snow has begun, it may be harder to melt any ice that has begun to form.
Why do they put salt on snow?
Salt is used on snow and ice to lower the freezing point of the water, helping to melt the snow and ice faster. This creates a slushy mixture that is easier to shovel and clears pathways. Salt also helps to prevent the formation of new ice by inhibiting water from refreezing.
Will ice melt... melt snow if you put it down before it actually starts snowing?
Putting down ice melt before it starts snowing can help prevent snow and ice from accumulating on surfaces by lowering the freezing point of water. However, it won't directly melt existing snow unless the snow is already close to the melting point and the ice melt accelerates the process. It is more effective as a preventive measure rather than a snow melting solution.
What to put on icy roads?
It is recommended to use salt or sand to increase traction on icy roads. Sand provides grit and improves grip, while salt helps to melt the ice. It is important to drive cautiously and slowly on icy roads to prevent accidents.
Do ice cubes melt faster when salt is added?
yes they do melt faster like you know in the winter how you put salt out in the snow and it melts the snow,well that proves it

How can you melt salt in oil?
you put the salt in the oil :)
Why do they put salt in the streets in the US?
Countries that have cold winters, that can result in snow and ice on their roads, will spread salt and grit to help avoid vehicle crashes.
Do you put down the salt before or after the snow?
It is smarter to put down salt before the snow comes. Once the snow has begun, it may be harder to melt any ice that has begun to form.
How do cities treat runoff from rain and Snow melt to fight algae blooms?
They put salt on the roads and sidewalks so that there isn't any ice.
Can you get snow in a rainforest?
no, because it will melt and if you put it in the freezer it will turn to ice and not snow!
What type of bridal shoes are worn in winter weddings?
normal but if you are doing it outside put some salt down to melt the snow and ice where you are going to walk
If you put salt on ice of snow decrease the melting point or increase it?
Putting salt on ice or snow decreases the melting point of water, a process known as freezing point depression. When salt is added, it disrupts the formation of ice crystals, causing the ice to melt at lower temperatures. This is why salt is commonly used to de-ice roads and walkways in winter.

Can snow melt by water?
You can keep snow from melting if you are able to control the temperature of its environment and keep it below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The amount of snow and the amount of time that the snow is to be preserved are variables that greatly affect the ease in which it can be done.
Why put salt on snow to reduce friction?
Unless it is bitterly cold (below zero Fahrenheit) salt will at the least "corrode" snow, causing it to pit and weaken. Pressure put on that ice will crumble the surface somewhat, making it less smooth and slippery - hence offering a better grip, and salt that does not melt ice because of extremely low temperature can act as a coarse "grit" itself. But sand is much more effective in such an application, and is not temperature dependent.
