Abstract or Description
My experiment was to see what would melt ice more. I tested salt, citric acid, sugar, hot water, and dish soap. After pouring 1/2 tsp of each ingredient on an ice cube I set a timer for 10 minutes. After ten minutes I took my controlled ice cube and compared it visually to the tested ice cubes. After I compared each ice cube I retested my experiment to double check my results. My hypothesis was that citric acid would melt the ice cube more. My hypothesis was incorrect because table salt melted the ice cube more.
