Gelatin slows down the melting of a popsicle because it creates a gel-like structure that traps water molecules. This structure stabilizes the ice crystals, reducing the rate at which they melt when exposed to warmer temperatures. Additionally, gelatin's presence increases the viscosity of the mixture, which can further slow down the melting process. As a result, popsicles made with gelatin tend to maintain their shape and stay frozen longer compared to those without it.
Yes, a Popsicle can melt at 5 degrees Celsius because that temperature is above the freezing point of water, causing the ice in the Popsicle to melt. However, the rate of melting may be slower compared to at higher temperatures.
Yes, a popsicle can melt faster than ice under certain conditions. This is primarily due to the added sugars and other ingredients in the popsicle, which lower its freezing point and can cause it to melt more quickly. Additionally, the surface area and temperature of the popsicle may contribute to a faster melting process compared to solid ice.
Experiments have been done and a red popsicle was found to melt the fastest. The dark popsicles actually melt faster than the light colors.

No. Colligative properties, such as freezing point depression and boiling point elevation, work in only one direction. Some polymers will cause water to gel, so that it never "melts" in the sense of becoming liquid on a large scale, but that is not the same thing. An example of this kind of polymer is gelatin, used in gelatin desserts such as JelloTM in the U. S.
it would melt.
Slower
No, because gelatin is meant to be hardened but then soft at the same time, so if you bake it, it would melt.
Gelatin is the real term for Jell-O, if that's what you mean. It does melt, because the process of making it starts with liquid.
Ice melts slower
Yes it does
Gelatin dissolves best in Hot or boiling water and if possible by using the double boiling method. In cold water Gelatin dissolves at a much slower pace and then reaches a point where it stops dissolving. In both cased constant stirring of the mixture is recommended.
