New Materials to Test
You already tested salt, sugar, sand, and warm water. But there are so many more things you could test! What else might melt ice?
Here are some ideas for new materials:
- Baking soda (a white powder used in cooking)
- Flour (another white powder)
- Pepper (tiny dark specks)
- Lemon juice (sour liquid)
- Rubbing alcohol (a clear liquid)
- Dirt (from the garden)
Which ones do you think will melt ice fast? Which ones will not help at all? Make your predictions before you test!
