Salt: Salt and Ice

The video explains how adding salt to water lowers its melting and freezing points by disrupting the water's lattice structure. This principle is used to melt ice on roads. Salt is more effective than other substances like sugar due to its availability and cost. However, as temperatures drop below -7°C, salt becomes less effective, and below -10°C, it has little impact.
