Yes, a solid and a liquid can form a mixture through a process called dissolution, where the solid is dissolved in the liquid. Examples include sugar dissolving in water to form a sugar solution and salt dissolving in water to form a saline solution.
Adding ice to the solution will initially decrease the solubility of salt in the solution due to the lowering of temperature, which reduces the kinetic energy of the molecules. However, as the ice melts and the temperature of the solution increases, more salt can dissolve.
A mixture. There are two definite phases
To change an unsaturated solution to a saturated solution, you would need to add more solute to the solution until no more solute can dissolve and starts to accumulate at the bottom. This process is called saturation.
If the ice is above a certain temperature, the salt will cause the ice to melt by lowering its melting point. The ice will absorb sensible heat as it melts, which means that the temperature of the solution will drop. If the temperature of the solution drops too low, the ice will stop melting unless it can absorb more heat from its surroundings.
No, a saturated salt solution will have a lower freezing point compared to pure water. The presence of salt interferes with the formation of ice crystals, making it harder for the solution to freeze.
The process of dissolving salt lowers the freezing point of the solution. So putting salt on the ice starts this process of dissovling, which creates a solution which will not freeze until a much lower temperature. Plain ice -- no solution.
Salt lowers the freezing point of water, which means that when salt is added to ice, it causes the ice to melt faster. The process of the salt dissolving into the liquid water creates a brine solution with a lower freezing point than pure water, allowing the ice to melt at a lower temperature.
The salt dissolving in the water creates heat which then melts the ice.
Melting ice occurs when solid ice transitions to liquid water due to an increase in temperature. Dissolving salt in water occurs when salt crystals break down into individual ions and disperses evenly throughout the water.
Dissolving a salt (NaCl, CaCl2) in water the heat of dissolution is released and the melting point of ice is then decreased.
By dissolving something in it, like salt or sugar.
The coldness of the ice precipitates the salt out of the solution.
Table salt has more artificial chemicals then natural rock salt. This really has nothing to do with it since the salt is never in contact with the ice cream. While rock salt is ideal, you can use table salt if needed. You can also make your own rock salt by heating some water, then dissolving as much salt in it as allowed. Heat the water until boiled. When the boiling water has become a saturated solution and cannot dissolve any more salt, remove the water from the stove and let it cool. As the water evaporates from the solution, the salt will form crystals. You can then crush the crystals, and you've got rock salt. It is usually preferable to use rock salt, because table salt is a finer grain. It dissolves quicker and effects the brine. The brine pulls heat from the batter. If the salt dissolves in the brine too quickly, it will drop the temperature of the batter too quickly. This will cause ice crystals to form in the ice cream, and a gritty texture may occur.
Probably to cause the water it to be saturated without using as much salt as it would take to make room temperature water saturated.
Yes, a solid and a liquid can form a mixture through a process called dissolution, where the solid is dissolved in the liquid. Examples include sugar dissolving in water to form a sugar solution and salt dissolving in water to form a saline solution.
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2); cola is a super-saturated solution of carbon dioxide (and other things). If you add a crystal of salt to a supersaturated salt solution, the extra salt dissolved in the water will start crystallizing around that "seed" crystal you added and come out of solution. Relatedly, when you add solid/gaseous pure CO2 to a supersaturated CO2 solution, the extra dissolved CO2 will start coming out of solution, prompted by the addition of pure CO2.
