Salt. Salt dissolves in water, and causes the freezing point to fall; this causes the ice to melt. Sugar does not have this effect, and chalk doesn't dissolve in water.

Which is not a crystal sand salt sugar or snowflakes?
sugar
How could you separate a mixture of and sugar and sand?
Put them in water. Sugar dissolves, sand remains Filter the solution to separate sand and salt. Evaporate solution with dissolved salt to get salt back
Which salt melts ice the fastest table salt or sea salt?
In extreme winters, it becomes important to deal with the snow on roads and everywhere. Salt and sand can be both helpful. Brick sand is the best option, it absorb the sunlight and helps the ice to melt quicker.
What substance is not soluble in water sand salt sugar powdered drink mix?
The substance that is not soluble in water is sand. Salt, sugar, and powdered drink mix are all soluble in water and will dissolve when mixed with it.
What kind of mixture gets separated by a filter?
water and sand there is dissolved sugar or salt with sand
What is the hypothesis of this question what makes ice melt the fastest sand salt sugar or sugar?
You need to determine what you think will melt the fastest, and that will be your hypothesis. If you think that pepper will melt it faster, you would say "My hypothesis is that the pepper will melt ice faster than the other variables (sand, salt, and sugar)."

What makes ice melt faster table salt sugar sand or pepper?
Salt - maximum change in melting point.
What melt ice faster with salt or sand?
Salt
What melt ice faster sand or clay?
Sand melts ice faster because it has salt and the salt makes it melt alot faster than clay.
What would melt ice faster salt or sand?
Salt
Does ice melt faster in sand or salt?
salt. its tasteyer
What makes ice melt the fastest sugar salt pepper or sand?
SALT DOESNT MELT THE ICE IT JUST LOWERS THE FREEZING POINTWell Salt Does Make Ice Melt Faster :) I made the project and my result were correct SALT melts ice faster :)
What makes ice melt fastest salt sugar pepper or sand?
Salt
Why does sand melt ice faster than salt?
salt reduces the tempature at which ice freezes
Why do sand take longer to melt ice then salt?
The reason why it takes sand to melt ice longer than salt does, is because salt draws or absorbs the moisture in the ice faster than sand that just has a rough texture. Yes, there is salt particles in sand but not as much as normal salt by itself.
Why does table salt melt ice faster than sugar pepper or sand?
Actually salt does make it melt faster. And of course it lowers the melting point, hence why it melts. When you add salt to an ice cube the salt immediately begins to dissolve, the ionic bonds break to form bonds with the water. (water has strong negative and positive points on it). Because the interaction is stronger than the interaction to stay as a solid the ice releases energy as heat given off melting until it hits a cold enough temperature to freeze again.
