One winter morning, Bella saw Chief Edsa scattering a lot of salt across the parking pavement. Why are you doing that? , she asked as she approached her father. So our cars won t slip down the road, he answered. Because of her curiosity, she went closer to the icy ground and looked at it. As she stares at the ground, an ice-cold hand patted her on the head

The Effect of Salt on Ice

Temperature of each quantities of ice per set-up

Temperature applied to each setup

Period of time exposed to cold and heat

First, separate each set-up. For this experiment, 3 set-ups will be used for better accuracy. Each set-up will need 1 container (a graduated cylinder is recommended for measuring purposes) which will be filled with 100 mL of ice. The first set-up (set-up A) will be added with 1 tablespoon of salt. The second set-up (set-up B) will be added with 2 tablespoons of salt. The third set-up will be the controlled set-up with only water in it. Give the set-ups about 2 minutes to dissolve the salt.

Then, place each set-up in an open area. All three set-ups must be under totally equal conditions (e.g. temperature, exposure to sun). Every after 5 minutes, measure thee temperature of each set-up (the mass can also be measured to know the rate of how ice turns to water). Gather all data then leave it again in the open area. Repeat process until all set-ups have turned to their liquid form.

Finally, tabulate your data. Through the gathered data, a tentative solution can be drawn. Conclude your experiment with a proven observation.
