Ions. NaCl is a molecule. And when put in water the polar quality of the water molecules pull apart the na and the cl into ions.

How does detergents help oil and water mix?
Do you know the phrase " Like dissolves like "? it means that polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and non-polar substances dissolve non-polar substances. Oil is non-polar, while water is a polar substance. To help oil and water mix, molecules of a detergent have two halves- the hydrophilic half and the hydrophobic half. The hydrophilic part of the molecule is polar, which dissolves water molecules. The hydrophobic part is non-polar, so it dissolves the oil molecules. So, basically, detergent can dissolve both oil and water, mixing them effectively.
Why is benzyl alcohol soluble in ether?
it is soluble in ether because both molecules are nonpolar. "like dissolves like!" :)
Do water molecules dissolve most polar solutes?
such as sugar and salt because they are both polar substances, like the water 'LIKE dissolves LIKE
What is a substance that dissolve to make a solution?
The solid that dissolves into a solution by water is called a solute. The solvent is water or another liquid and it dissolves the solute. Both together, it is called a solution.
Is octanol soluble with hexane?
Octane is a non polar compound. Sodium hydroxide is an ionic solvent. So octane is not soluble in NaOH and they together involve in no reactions.
Why ammonia soluble in water?
Both water and ammonia are polar molecules. Like dissolves like.
Why can't baking soda dissolve in water?
Baking Soda dissolves in water because "like dissolves like" - both are polar molecules and thus the baking soda dissloves in it.
Sugar dissolves in water because both are made up of?
Sugar (sucrose) dissolves in water because it is a polar molecule, owed namely to its many -OH groups. Remember that water (H-OH) is a very polar molecule. Both molecules share the -OH group that contributes to their polarity.
Why is alcohol misible in water?
Alcohol is miscible in water because they both have similar properties.A good rule of thumb is "like dissolves like"For example, water, which consists of polar molecules, is not miscible in oil, because oil consists of nonpolar hydrocarbon chain molecules.
Why does NaCl dissolve in water?
Water is polar. NaCl is polar. Polar substances are soluble in polar solvents.

If sugar dissolves in tea is it positive or negative?
Sugar dissolves in water because both water and sugar are polar.
Are both products (ozone and water) molecules?
Yes. The ozone and water are both molecules.
Why does acetone dissolve styrofoam?
Both styrofoam and acetone are non-polar molecules, and like-dissolves-like.
Can sugar dissolve in cold water?
yes because yuo will need but doo dooo
What a substance that dissolves in both heptane and water?
An example is glycerol.
Why do humans need h2o?
Water dissolves the molecules inside our cells and fills up our cells so they have a shape. The molecules like proteins and DNA need to be dissolved in water so that they can move around to the places where they are needed. Water is also a polar material, H2O has both positive and negative parts, and this polarization helps the molecules interact with each other.
