Here’s what I don’t understand: in the freezing point depression of salt dissolved in water (which is why salt keeps roads from icing up)the salt has to be DISSOLVED into the water. It’s not a catalyst. That means it is washed away as soon as the liquid runs off the road. So why does beet juice “cement” salt to the road? Makes no sense.
