salts dissolve in protic solvents do to the polar nature of salts and the solvent (like dissolves like). ie. water (protic) and sodium chloride (ionic) = Na+ + Cl- in water

an example of a nonprotic solvent is DCM (dichloromethane). it is nonpolar and doesnt really react much with ions.

this is something you will need to know to pass an organic chemistry.

How long does it take for rock salt to dissolve in liquids?

Rock salt can dissolve in liquids fairly quickly, typically within a few minutes to an hour depending on factors such as temperature, agitation, and the size of the salt crystals. Warmer temperatures and stirring the liquid can help speed up the dissolution process.


Why do you crush rock salt?
