An ice cube and a scoop of table salt are left outside on a warm, sunny day. explain why the ice cube melts and the salt does not

the reason why is that salt is a solid while ice is a liquid solid

or something like that but don't forget to put that it is  a solid

po-215 i got it right on the quiz

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
