Yes. You could get frostbite. The reason: Salt lowers the freezing point of water. As the ice absorbs energy from its surroundings (salt water), the temperature will drop, but instead of stopping at 0°C, when water would start to freeze, the salt water will continue to drop below 0°C in temperature, because it's not at its freezing point, yet.

What melt first of a ice cube salt and ice cube with salt?
an ice cube with salt
Which will melt first an ice cube or an ice cube with salt on it and why?
An ice cube with salt on it will melt faster than a plain ice cube. Salt lowers the freezing point of water, causing the ice to melt at a lower temperature than usual due to the ice-salt mixture needing to absorb heat from the surroundings to melt.
Does an ice cube melt faster in soapy or salt water?
An ice cube melts faster in salt water.
How long does it take to an ice cube with and without salt?
Adding salt to ice lowers its freezing point, which speeds up the melting process. This makes ice melt faster when salt is added compared to ice without salt. The exact time it takes for an ice cube to melt will depend on factors such as the amount of salt added, temperature, and size of the ice cube.
Why if you left an ice cube and salt at the sun the ice cube melts and the salt doesnt?
Because the melting temperature of the ice is 32°F and the melting temperature of the salt is 1,474°F.
Dependent variable for does an ice cube with faster than an ice cube with salt?
Yes, in fact it doesnt melt. The salt goes through the ice, then make little holes in the ice.
How do you do the ice and salt challenge?
You take a ice cube and some salt. First pour some salt on your arm and then put the ice cube on top and let it sit there for about 45 seconds. You will feel the burn.
What will make an ice cube melt salt or sugar?
Salt, obviously.
How long does it take to melt ice cube with ice melt?
that depends on the size of the ice cube, how much salt, and the ambient temperature.
Does an ice cube melt faster than an ice cube with salt?
Yes it does, in northern states when it snows they use ice to melt the streets.
Why is an ice cube affected to a string if you sprinkle salt on it?
The ice starts to melt.
What makes ice cream melt faster than a ice cube?
