Why do we use salt on sidewalks and roads? What exactly does salt do to the snow and ice? This can be a hard concept to understand, but there are many ways to demonstrate the science of salt and ice. Here is a simple way to introduce the phenomena of freezing point.
Observing the Changing Temperature
1. Get two cups.
2. Place a thermometer in each cup.
3. Fill the cups with ice.
4. Place two spoonfuls of salt in one cup.
