Why Does Salt Help with Snow and Ice?
Ready for a really simple, really cool experiment?- Take an ice cube from your freezer and place it on a plate.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt over one half of the ice cube.
- Put the plate with the ice cube in the refrigerator.
- After about 10 minutes, take the ice cube out and observe what has happened.
My 8 yo son and 11 yo niece did this today and they made their observations, now, what do you notice about the salted side of the ice cube?
