Which Melts Ice The Fastest? Salt Or Sugar?

Salt because the salt molecules bond with the water molecules witch make it more difficult for ice to form.

So the is your answer

DUH

Salt will make them melt faster.

Salt no doubt. (:

Salt because due to the fact that salt lowers the freezing point, sugar does also. Most sites say it doesn't when it actually does. Its the same process of ice but just at a slower pace!!!

Salt makes ice on the roads and even cubes in your drink melt faster.

Sugar I'm doing the experiment now.

Salt...I'm doin a project

Hi there I have tested this for an experiment for a science project and I can tell you that salt makes ice melt faster than sugar though I'm sure you could have done that experiment your self!

Leaving it in the sun

Sugar

I've never heard of sugar melting ice. Salt lowers the melting temperature of ice, but you need lots of it to melt something like a pathway.

It is salt because sugar won't work because it doesn't have the proper substances to melt an ice cube. Besides, we use salt everyday in winter to melt the snow on the road or the ground and it seems to work pretty well. Salt is the answer!

It is salt, and that is because salt is twice as effective at making it harder for the water molecules to become frozen, because salt is ionic, and ionic things are held tightest by water

Sugar does not but the salt does it really fast, because the salt lowers the temperature of the ice, because since sugar is a molecule so it will dissolve as a one particle and also the sugar doesn't have the substances that can melt the ice.

I clealy think salt will make ice melt faster why well you see I think that the ice defently melts ice faster

Its something called a colligative property.  The greater the number of non volatile particles, the greater change in the melting (or boiling) point of a solution.  Sugar is a molecule, so it will dissolve as one particle.  Salt is an ionic compound so it will dissolve into Na+ and Cl-, or 2 particles.  Particle to particle, salt will lower the melting point of ice the most. One sugar molecule is about 6x the mass of NaCl, mass would also favor NaCl.  

Whether all this has an effect on the SPEED of the melting - I think it does.

I think that they will both melt ice the fastest

I need research on why dose salt ice melt faster that sugar ice and why

Try em' together and see if the combination of the 2 substances in the new substance is powerful enough to heat up or cause enough friction to melt the ice

Salt will make it melt faster

I'm doing a project on the subject so I will get back to you in about a week

I think that  its make it go faster is that  it melt when it wants to melt   so if  you gave it some time   t will melt  faster  in time  that in time it will
