Effects of Salt on the Melting Rate of Ice Lab Report

Effects of Salt on the Melting esteem of Ice - Lab Report ExampleObjective to investigate the effect of dissolved salt on the melting rate of ice. Hypothesis The null opening is that the salty water would melt faster than complete(a) water. The second hypothesis is that the more the impurities in water, the faster the melting point (Van der Put, 2013). Materials and equipment deuce Thermometers Ice cubes Two bowls Salt- sodium chloride (NaCl) Stopwatch Procedure Take two equal bowls and put the very(prenominal) amount of ice in each. Put some salt on the ice in adept of the bowls. Label it A. Record the temperature of each bowl. Observe the ice as it melts completely in both bowls, and billhook the temperature in both bowls at an interval of 40 minutesThe results indicate that the null hypothesis should be accepted, because the clear ice melted slower than the ice with salt. The ice with salt melted in an average of 160 minutes while the pure ice melted at around two hundred minutes. The second hypothesis was also accepted since the salt, in this case, is the impurity, and the ice that had the salt melted faster than the pure ice.
