When cement is frozen it shrinks. the salt adds heat and it expands. The cement is not used to the change and it expands to much and it cracks. just like when paper rips. =============================== I have a different mechanism to propose: -- Salt on the surface of the frozen rock melts the fine layer of ice on the rock, just as it does when salt is used on the roads or sidewalks. -- The liquid water seeps into microscopic cracks in the cement. -- When the water re-freezes, it expands, cracking the cement.
What did you observe! This is not a question we can answer as we were not present when the salt was added.
Salt added to water form a solution, an electrolyte.
When a salt is added to the water, it will be decomposed to it's ion. Ions has ability to conduct the electricity.
If you add an equal amount of salt to the beaker on the left, the water level in that beaker will rise slightly due to the displacement caused by the added salt. In contrast, the water level in the beaker on the right, which has no added salt, will remain unchanged. The overall increase in water level in the left beaker is a result of the combined volume of the water and the salt.
When salt is added to water to change its color, the salt dissolves in the water and does not directly affect the color of the water.
the salt dissolves and the water will become salt water

Yes , the volume of water will increase if salt is added , as salt is a solute and water is a solvent. When salt is added , it affects the weight of molecules and the liquid itself.

Because this water contain salt - naturally or added.
We cannot see the salt particle when it is added to the water because it dissolves
magnesium sulphate
Only if the concentration is the same.
Salt added to water form a solution, an electrolyte.
salt is added, or dissolved into it, oceans are about 30 - 33%
No, salt does not disappear in water. When salt is added to water, it dissolves to form a salt solution. The salt particles are still present in the water, but they are not visible to the naked eye.
