Abstract I did my science fair project on how different substances affect the speed which ice melts. I chose three substances to experiment with: salt, sand, and sugar, making sure that I left one ice cube with nothing on it. The goal of this experiment was to see which one would be most effective at melting icy roads in terms of speed.
