Which consequence results when road salt concentration increases?

A)Ionic conductivity melts bridge concrete
B)Vehicle corrosion rate accelerates sharply
C)Surface tension on road increases
D)Water's heat capacity will moderately increase

💡 Explanation

Increased road salt concentration leads to accelerated corrosion because electrochemical corrosion is enhanced via ionic conduction between anodic and cathodic regions on the vehicle's metal; therefore the car corrodes faster, rather than the concrete melting due to unrelated processes.
