Which consequence results when calcium chloride pavement deicer reaches saturation?

A)Eutectic point exceeds ambient temperature
B)Accelerated road surface corrosion occurs
C)Hydration shells disrupt ionic conductivity
D)Excessive water forms conductive network

💡 Explanation

When calcium chloride deicer becomes saturated, the eutectic point increases because ion solvation raises the energy needed for melting via exothermic mixing, therefore freezing occurs much easier rather than continuing to melt ice at low temperature.
