As the temperature of the water goes up, the higher the potential for an increase in salinity. In other words if you have warm water and you put in salt, or whatever dissolvent (sugar, chemicals, etc.), and come to a maximum (you start seeing dissolvent form at the top or bottom of the water) you can add more if you increase the temperature of the water. The opposite is also true, if you have very saline water and want to make it less saline cool the water and some salt, or dissolvent will come out of solution*.
* Note; this will only work if the dissolvent is at the maximum amount for that temperature. If the dissolvent is less than the maximum for that temperature nothing will come out, that is why salt water in the ocean can freeze and still be salt water it's just less salty.

What is the temperature if you put salt in water?
Adding salt does not effect the temperature.Answer:Adding salt does not change the temperature at the time you add the salt, but it raises the temperature at which the water will boil
How does fresh water freezes faster than salt water?
When water has a substance dissolved in it, it freezes at a lower temperature. Salt water has salt dissolved in the water, so it freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water.
When you mixed room temperature salt and room temperature water the mixture changes temperature. If you leave this mixture undisturbed for several hours what would happen to the temperature?
The temperature of the water/salt solution will equalize to room temperature.
What temperature does salt dissolve in water fastest?
highest possible temperature for the water, without boiling
How does adding salt to water affect it freezing point?
Adding salt to water increases its density and lowers its freezing point. ---------------------- I've just completed a repeated experiment on the effects of salt and the freezing point of water. A saturated salt solution will not freeze at -15 degrees Celsius (my freezer temperature). At exactly -21.1 degrees Celsius the salt begins to crystallize out of the solution, along with the ice, until the solution completely freezes.
What effects does salt have on water?
No major effects. The salt water and the water join to become a less concentrated salt solution than the salt water but a more concentrated salt solution than the regular water.
What is the temperature if you put salt in water?
Adding salt does not effect the temperature.Answer:Adding salt does not change the temperature at the time you add the salt, but it raises the temperature at which the water will boil
How can you use the effects of the salt in the temperature of the boiling water when you cooking?
Adding salt to water increases the boiling temperature of the water. Therefore a pot of salted water will take longer to reach its boil than the same size pot of plain water. So why do we do it? Because the higher boiling point means an increase in the temperature of the water which increases cooking temperature and thereby decreases cooking time.
Why does salt water have positive effects on us?
Because salt turns into water and water is what we need.
Does drinking water boil at a lower temperature than salt water?
Yes, drinking water does boil at a lower temperature than salt water.
What is the reaction of salt in the water at freezing temperature?
Salt doesn't react with water.
Which lowers the water temperature faster baking soda or salt water?
salt
How does fresh water freezes faster than salt water?
When water has a substance dissolved in it, it freezes at a lower temperature. Salt water has salt dissolved in the water, so it freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water.
How fast does salt in water?
what is temperature
Why can we separate salt from water?
Water evaporates at a MUCH lower temperature than salt.
Is salt water hotter than tap water?
Salt water can be any temperature you like, so depending on your tap water's temperature it's either yes or no.
If you add salt to water does it make the water hot or cold?
salt doesn't change the temperature of water, it changes the freezing point. salt lowers the freezing point of water so that it will become ice at a lower temperature, therefor melt at a lower temperature which is why salt is put on the roads when it is icy
