Hypothesis: Sprinkle Salt on ice would melt the ice.
Null-Hypothesis: Sprinkle Salt do ice do not melt the ice.
Theory behind hypothesis: (explain what any why you believe the salt do or interact to melt the ice like if it exert heat from solution)
Hypothesis is just write the sentence describe what would you believe in the result and what might be the cause of what is going on. You then design experiment base on your hypothesis.

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.
Will pool salt melt ice?
yes
Which will make ice melt qicker ice or salt add to ice?
Hot water, salt can melt an ice cube as well but hot water raises the temperature in the ice cube causing it to go through a phase change referred to as melting thus turning it to a liquid more rapidly than salt could.
How long does it sand to melt ice?
Sand will not melt ice, it only adds a rough surface to enhance traction. A rough guideline for most "sand/salt" ice melt commercial products, if there isn't an improvement within a half hour, re-apply the ice melt. A Salt or similar compound that undergoes an exothermic (releasing heat) reaction with water will melt ice, and sometimes salt and sand are mixed for this purpose, the sand providing traction until the salt melts the ice. Keep in mind that non-salt ice melts can work faster and are less damaging to concrete and metal compared to salt. The speed of the ice melting depends on many factors, such as the thickness of the ice, ambient air temperature, and amount of salt applied.
Why do people use salt on icy roads?
because it will melt the ice on the sidewalks.
Is salt the same as ice melt?

Can you melt ice with laundry detergent?
AnswerSalt melts ice. Laundry detergent is like salt it lowers the melting temp and also creates traction

What happens when sand is scattered on icy roads?
The sand helps melt the ice. I did an experiment. I put three ice cubes in 1 bowl without ice. The other bowl had salt and ice. The one with salt melted the quickest.
Will the amount of salt make a difference to melt ice?

How does baking soda melt ice?
Baking soda is a type of salt so it will melt ice like salt. It will lower the freezing point of water and the ice will melt
Which substance will melt the ice first salt or sugar?
Salt will melt first.
Does salt stop ice from melting?
No, salt does not stop ice from melting. In fact if the temperature is not too low it will cause ice to melt.
