Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that salt melts ice on roads?

Yes. Multiple reference sources state that salt melts ice on roads by lowering water's freezing point (freezing point depression), and two textbook-style passages say so directly.
