When you put salt and ice together will it burn your skin?

Combining salt and ice will make very cold, salty water, which is quite uncomfortable if you get it on your skin. This could be described as a burning cold. Actually, the answer is yes. The chemical reaction from the salt melting the ice will cause a rash to appear on your skin. If you put salt on your hand then place an ice cube on the salt, the resulting chemical reaction will burn you.


Do you need to wash your homemade tie dye shirts in vinegar after dyeing them?

Yes. The vinegar "sets" the color to prevent fading. Use a teaspoon of salt also. However, according to an article at http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/dyelog/B1063361308/C1605100905/E20080723120359/ vinegar is not recommended where the tie dye shirt is cotton.


Will a vinegar and baking soda balloon go up like a helium balloon?

"No as the vinegar and baking soda combined weight is too heavy - helium lighter than air therefore it goes up/floats" Hello - the above prior answer is correct if you mean attaching vinegar and baking soda as a payload. If you mean just capturing the gas from the reaction, the above answer ends up correct anyway, as the gaseous product of the reaction is CO2 (carbon dioxide). CO2 is about 50% heavier than air (mostly Nitrogen), so a balloon filled with CO2 will still sink. ---MexicoDoug

How does vinegar react with salt?

Table salt (sodium chloride) and vinegar (acetic acid) do not produce any obvious reaction. What happens is a reversible equilibrium ionic reaction. sodium chloride + acetic acid <--> sodium acetate + hydrochloric acid As the hydrochloric acid on the right side of the equation is much more reactive than the acetic acid on the left side of the equation, the reverse reaction dominates returning the reactants to their original form almost instantly. Also this is an ionic reaction in water so most of the time we just have the following free ions: sodium+, chloride-, hydrogen+, and acetate- not the compounds listed in the equation above.
