What is the effect of impurities on the melting point of a compound

The presence of impurities in a substance results in a lower melting point due to a process called melting point depression. Melting point depression is the reason why adding salt to frozen streets helps to melt the ice. Melting point depression occurs due to the nature of a material's solid state.

i don't see a text, but i am gonna assume this *orbit* the curved path, usually elliptical, described by a planet, satellite, spaceship, etc., around a celestial body, as the sun.

the electron configuration that you gave me has 16 electrons ergo it has 16 protons ergo it is the element sulfur.
