What has the higher melting point sodium chloride or aluminum oxide?
aluminum oxide : Al2O3
Which is more expensive sodium chloride or calcium chloride?
The price is higher for the calcium chloride.
How do you separate a mixture of iodine solid and sodium chloride?
Iodine is well known to sublime (change from solid to gas without becoming liquid inbetween) when heated. However sodium chloride has a melting point much higher than that of iodine. Therefore, a mixture of iodine and sodium chloride can be separated by using a sublimation apparatus, with solid iodine collected by condensation on a cold surface.
Which has higher boiling point Urea or Sodium chloride?
urea
Why does diamond have a higher melting point then sodium chloride?
the bonds between the atoms of carbon in diamonds are much stronger than the atoms in Sodium Chloride. Each carbon atom in diamond is covalently bonded to 4 other carbon atoms making it very difficult to boil/melt. Whereas sodium chloride is in the structure of an ionic lattice with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between the negatively charged chloride atoms and the positively charged sodium atoms; this is still strong but not as much as diamond.
What has the higher melting point sodium chloride or aluminum oxide?
aluminum oxide : Al2O3
Does sodium chloride or phosphorus trichloride have a higher melting point?
The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C. The melting point of phosphorus trichloride is -93,6 0C.
Which would you expect to have a higher melting point sodium chloride NaCI or aluminum oxide AI203?
The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C. The melting point of aluminium oxide is 2 072 0C.

How does forming a bond between sodium and Chloride affect the melting point of sodium chloride?
The ionic bonding in sodium chloride is much stronger than the internal bonding in either element that forms sodium chloride; therefore, the melting point of the salt is much higher than that of either element that forms the salt.
Does salt have a higher or lower melting point than Na or Cl?
Common table salt (sodium chloride) has a much higher melting point than either sodium or chlorine.
Why is the melting point of sodium chloride is much higher than that of aluminium tetrachloride?
Sodium chloride is an ionic compound whereas AlCl3 is a covalent compound. Ionic compounds have greater melting point due to stronger electrostatic force of attraction.
Which substance would have a higher boiling point sodium chloride or water?
Sodium chloride has a higher boiling point.
How much does water weigh with sodium chloride together?
This depends on the sodium chloride concentration; higher the concentration, higher the density.
Why does sodium chloride sink?
1. Because the density of sodium chloride is higher than the density of water. 2. Sodium chloride is soluble in water.
Why does calcium oxide have a higher melting point than sodium chloride?
CaO - the attraction between a 2+ and a 2- ion is much stronger than between a + and a -.
Who has higher melting points ionic compounds or covalent compounds?
Ionic compounds have higher melting points than covalent compounds. Common table salt, sodium chloride, is an ionic compound and has a melting point of 801 oC. Table sugar, sucrose, a covalent compound, has a melting point of about 186 oC.
