No, pure snow does not contain salt. However, it can pick up salt or other substances from the environment as it falls or melts, especially in urban areas where salt is used to de-ice roads.
What is minimum concentration of salt to melt snow?
Salt just lowers the freezing point of water. It makes it so it has to be colder for snow to stick. It will not melt snow that is already there. In fact it will just make it harder.
Why is Deicer salt really good to melt snow?
Deicer salt is effective at melting snow because it lowers the freezing point of water, causing the snow and ice to turn into liquid water. This occurs through a process called freezing point depression. Therefore, when deicer salt is applied to snow or ice, it helps to break the bond between the ice and the pavement, allowing for easier removal.
