What makes ice melt fastest?

Post by mukhlisa »

Hi! I am using salt and sugar to test. How can I record it? I need to put it in a data table and then a graph. Should I measure how long it takes to melt or what? Help! its due monday!

Hello.

Yes, if you want to test which subject melts ice the fastest, then time is a good measure. You can place the times in a table and also a graph. Be sure to also record weather conditions where you are conducting the experiment...room temperature, humidity, etc, as changing these conditions could potentially change the outcome of your experiment.

Write back if you have more questions. Good luck!
