Does ice melt faster in water or soda
Ice melts faster in water than in soda. This is because soda has sodium (salt) in it, and adding sodium makes ice melt more slowly than it will in plain water. In order for ice to melt, the chemical bonds that join water molecules must be broken, and breaking bonds always requires energy. Adding sodium to a solution means that it takes more energy to break bonds than it takes in plain water, which slows melting.
