What effect does salt water have on ice?
Fresh-water ice will melt faster in salt water than it will in fresh water or in the open air. Ice forms when water molecules are cooled down enough to arrange into solid crystals. Salt will, basically, get between the water molecules and make it harder for them to form crystals.
Why does the string stick to the ice when you put salt on it?
The salt temporarily melts the ice. The melted water flows over the string. The water refreezes on top of the string.
What is a practical use for dry ice?
Dry ice can be used for tons of stuff. Here is a list of some of the most popular uses:Dry ice blast cleaningMedical cleaningMedical transportationExperimentsKeeping food fresh in power outagesShipping of food across the country
Can you use ice melt salt in a water softener?
Be careful of what you put in your water softener.The water softeners work by ion exchange... I.E. Exchanging heavy ions with lighter ions.Typically people fill the softeners with highly pure NaCl or KCl (sodium or potassium chloride).Your ice melt (assuming it is Sodium Chloride (salt)) based, would probably work, but it may not have the same purity as the salt for the water softener.I suppose you can think of it this way... if you let your dog drink out of mud puddles, why don't you drink out of mud puddles?
What substanes can melt ice the fastest?
A very good substance for melting ice is table salt. This is because salt is highly soluble in water, and, as more NaCl dissolves in the water, the more this impurity will depress the melting point. Because the water's melting point will be depressed, it will start to melt above zero degrees Celsius. (I'm not sure this is the best substance to melt ice, I simply put it here because of its solubility in water; if anyone knows a more soluble salt, then that will probably melt ice better) Sand is also really good to melt ice
What happens if you put saltbon dry ice?
You will have some dry water sodium. Salty dry ice.
Why ice cream seller put salt in ice?
salt causes the temp of ice water to decrease.
Why will there be a hole when you put a pinch of salt on the ice?
Some of the water molecules in the ice bond with the salt to form a solution. This solution has a higher melting point than water which forms a hole in the ice adjacent to the place where the salt was put.

When you put dry ice into hot water why does it stem more than in cold water?
Because dry ice evaporates faster in higher temperatures
Which ice melts faster dry ice or regular ice?
Dry Ice because dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, totally different from ordinary ice, which is frozen water. Dry ice is much colder than water ice, thus it melts faster. P.S. DO NOT TOUCH IT FREEZES YOUR SKIN INSTANTLY!!
What happens when you put ice in salt water?
Pouring the salt in your hand and squeezing the ice cube for at least 5 to 10 minutes will leave a huge blister.
Why does the string stick to the ice when you put salt on it?

If ice were to put ice into both salt water and fresh water then which water could come cold faster?
Yes it will melt faster because salt lowe the freezing
If you put salt on ice does it freeze or get cold faster?
Salt lowers the temperature at which water freezes which would cause the ice to melt.
How do you cure the salt and ice challenge burn?
Put Warm Water On It.
What should you do if you put ice and salt on your skin?
Rinse it of with fresh water.
