If in the determination of melting point of ice, the ice is contaminated with impurity like
sodium chloride, how is the melting point affected? Explain the significance of using salt in cold
countries to melt ice after a snowfall.

In the determination of melting point of ice, the ice is sometime contaminated with impurity like NaCl. Then, the melting point of water decreases.
Even though a salt cannot melt ice to water, but NaCl is the best salt (table salt) in this case. Thus cooler areas get warmer during winter.
