from Wikipedia on "Salt"
"Sodium is one of the primary electrolytes in the body. All four cationic electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium) are available in unrefined salt, as are other vital minerals needed for optimal bodily function."
The taste of sodium chloride is considered an emergent property.
Yes, sodium chloride (NaCl) is a chemical compound.
The dissolution of sodium chloride in water is considered a physical change because no new substances are formed - the sodium chloride remains as sodium and chloride ions in the water solution.
Common table salt is known as sodium chloride, with the chemical formula NaCl.
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a salt.Water (H2O) is an oxide.Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is an acid.
No, actually sodium chloride can be considered the "ash" of burning metallic sodium in a chlorine gas atmosphere. The ash of combustion will not undergo further combustion.
Sodium chloride is considered an electrolyte because it dissociates into ions (sodium and chloride) when dissolved in water, allowing it to conduct electricity. Carbon dioxide, distilled water, and hydrogen peroxide do not dissociate into ions in water and therefore are not considered electrolytes.
Sodium chloride doesn't sublime.
Sodium chloride has an ionic bond.
Dissolving sodium chloride in water is a physical change because the chemical composition of sodium chloride remains the same. The sodium and chloride ions are simply dispersed throughout the water, but they can still be recovered by evaporating the water.
The sodium chloride solution in water is neutral (pH=7).
Table salt is sodium chloride, or NaCl. It might also be called halite (which is the name of sodium chloride crystals considered as a mineral), though that's more the geological name for salt).
