The motivation is to decrease thr freezing point.
Salt water. The salt makes it melt faster, than pure fresh water.That is rubbish. Salt crystals may be spread onto ice to melt it (causing a drop in temperature too). A mixture of crushed ice and salt is commonly used as a "freezing mixture" in the laboratory. However, a lump of ice (of a given mass and temperature) will not melt at any appreciably different rate in a bath of salty water than in a bath of fresh water at the same temperature. This is because the thermal conductivity of salty water is only very slightly greater than that of fresh water, but the thermal capacity of salty water is less than that of fresh water, so any effects due to these differences tend to cancel each other out. The main factor that would influence the rate of melting would be the temperature of the water bath. Some experiments have shown that if the bath water is salty enough, the bath water is more dense than any cold, recently-melted water from the ice cube and thus there will be no convection currents which might carry heat away quicker than by conduction alone, from which the obvious conclusion is that the ice should melt quicker in fresh water.
Yes. If it were not soluble it would not work well as bath salt.
well for something to freeze it has to be 0 degrees or lower which is what ice is, frozen water. so the water has to be 1 degree or more to NOT freeze so the ice is colder than salt watercoz salt water is not frozen... does t6hat make sense? Actually, salt water CAN be colder than ice because the salt lowers the freezing point of the water.
When you put ice in salt water, the salt lowers the freezing point of the water, causing the ice to melt. This process is known as freezing point depression. The ice absorbs heat from the surrounding water to melt, which makes the salt water colder than the original freshwater.
Ice caps are made of fresh water. When this ice melts into the ocean, it contributes to the salinity of the water in that area.
The coldness of the ice precipitates the salt out of the solution.

To create a DIY water chiller for an ice bath, you can use a cooler, a submersible pump, tubing, and ice packs. Place the submersible pump in the cooler filled with ice water, connect tubing to the pump, and circulate the cold water through the ice bath. This will help chill the water in the ice bath efficiently.
Salt water: because salt lowers the freezing point of water, less water will freeze onto the ice cube, while the same amount of ice will dissolve into the water. This means that overall, the salt water will thaw it quicker. we recantly did a experiment in science class where there was a bucket of salt water and a bucket of fresh water (same temperatures) and in each bucket was an ice cube the ice cube in the fresh water melted faster because in salt water there are more perservatives and has more minerals therefore it is more dense and the ice will float closer to the top while the ice cube in the fresh water floats more lower. but i could be wrong
A Bath
salt. salt melts ice.
Yes. If it were not soluble it would not work well as bath salt.
No, salt water is not able to turn to ice.
Bath salts are specifically formulated to dissolve in water, adding a fragrance to bath-night.
in your bath
The temperature of an ice water bath is typically around 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit).
