I'm doing an experiment where you lay a piece of string on 
an ice cube and let it melt into it,then you pore salt onto 
the cube and it refreezes back so that you can pick up the 
ice with the string.  How does the ice freeze back with 
salt on it?  What is the temperature it freezes back at? 
Does just plain water freeze at 32 degrees?
