How does salt raises the melting point of water?
It doesn't increase the melting point of ice, instead, it lowers it. When a solute (which is the salt) is added to a solvent (which is what dissolves it), the boiling point is increased while both the freezing and melting points are decreased. This is evident in the boiling point elevation and the freezing/melting point depression system.
The temperature at which a solid melts is called?
melting point
What is difference between melting point and drop melting point?
No basic Difference between melting point and Drop point.
What becomes solid above the melting point?
assuming it is its own melting point NOTHING which is why its a MELTING point
Is the melting point of bromine higher or lower than the melting point of chlorine?
The melting point of bromine is -7,2 0C. The melting point of chlorine is -101,5 0C.
What melting point depression?
This is the modification of melting (freezing) point due to impurities in the material.
What is the tendency of a solute to change the melting point of a solid called?
The answer is "Freezing point depression" on Apex

Do sawdust decrease the melting point of ice?
No, only things which are soluble exhibit a freezing point depression effect.
Does the salt decreases the melting point of ice?
Adding of any type of impurity in water decreases its melting point. You might have studied that depression in freezing point is a "colligative" property according to which adding of any impurity to a pure liquid decreases the melting point and increases the boiling point of that liquid. So, adding of salt is not the only method of decreasing the melting point.
What do you call the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid?
This is the melting point.
What kind of salt to use on sidewalks for snow?
Salt works by lowering the melting or freezing point of water. The effect is termed 'freezing point depression'.
How do the melting and boiling points of water differ from those of a sugar water solution?
The phenomenon of boiling point elevation is analogous to freezing point depression
