Salt doesnt melt, it is absorbed, and as for melting on cold mornings.... name something that does melt on a cold morning.

----

Salt will cause water ice to soften and melt unless the temperature is very cold (much colder than you're ever likely to see this side of the arctic circle). the salt itself doesn't melt; it converts the ice around it to water and dissolves in that water, allowing it to spread out and melt more ice.

Why does salt cause snow to melt faster?

Salt increases the thermal energy of water to a point higher than the surrounding cold temperatures (below 32 degrees F), therefore causing it to melt.


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.


Is salt the same as ice melt?

no, but ice melt is a salt


Does ice melt in cold freshwater or cold saltwater?

Oh, dude, ice melts in cold freshwater because the freezing point of freshwater is 0 degrees Celsius, so when it's in contact with ice, it warms up and melts the ice. In cold saltwater, the freezing point is lower because of the salt, so the ice would actually melt slower. But hey, no need to lose sleep over it, ice is gonna do its thing regardless!

How fast does 2 tablespoons of salt melt 5 pints of melted ice?

Instantly, the ice is already melted. If the ice weren't melted, it would depend on what salt was used and the temperature of the salt and the ice. Certain salts, like magnesium chloride, melt ice much faster and at a lower temperature than table salt. If the ice is really cold it won't melt, regardless of what salt is used.
