Oil, being a non-polar covalent compound is not soluble in water, which is a polar solvent. Salts (not limited to NaCl, but all ionic salts,) being ionic compounds that disassociate in solution to form charged ions, are highly soluble in water.
no no
No
No.
because the oil's particles aren't attracted enough to break down the salt's particles - true like dissolves like if you know what that means than great
Mineral salt lowers the freezing point of water, so it will melt.
Halite. Salt IS a mineral, a rock. Its name, when you find it on the ground in its natural form, is Halite.
No. By definition, a mineral must be a solid and have crystals
What is mineral oil and what are its physical properties and its formula
No

no
The salt will not dissolve in the oil because oil is nonpolar and salt is polar, and like dissolves like.
Baking soda dissolves faster than salt.
The reason why salt cannot disolve in water , is because salt is a mineral, and minerals do not disolve in water.
no it can not
I don't know what these samples are of, but somethings just dissolve in oil but not in water. That's one of the properties they have.
halide ions strongly interact with the counter-ions. However, mineral oil is non-polar. To dissolve the halide ions (and the counter-ions) into mineral oil would drastically raise system energy. Thus it does not work. More simply, halide ions have a charge and won't easily dissolve in non-polar substances, since like-dissolves-like.
Because clay is not a salt; it's a mineral. However, clay particles can be so minute that they become invisible colloids in water.
