Why are water molecules so attracted to sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride is dissociated in water being an ionic compound.
When sodium chloride is dissolved into water what part of the water molecule does sodium get attracted to?
The negative dipole of the oxygen
Why are water molecules attracted to sodium chlorine?
Water molecules are attracted to sodium chloride because water is a polar charge. Slightly positive and slightly negative ends on H2O, the sodium chloride Na+ and Cl- attracts to the opposing charge on the water molecule
In a crystal of sodium chloride each sodium ion is attracted to what?
chloride ions surrounding it
Does dissociation of salts keep salt molecules stable in water?
When sodium chloride is dissolved in water, a process called solvation occurs. Water is a polar in nature and it is a polar solvent. The water molecule has a positive end and a negative end . The positive part of the water molecule is attracted to the negative part of the sodium chloride, the chloride ion. The negative part of the water is attracted to the positive part of the sodium chloride, the sodium ion. Thus, the sodium chloride dissociates, or breaks apart in water
What is sodium chloride plus water?
Sodium chloride form with water saline solutions.
What is the use of sodium chloride in water?

What method can be use to obtain sodium chloride from sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride is separated from the solution after the evaporation of water.
Why is sodium chloride a mixture of sodium chloride and water?
Only the water solution of sodium chloride is a mixture of NaCl and water.
When sodium chloride is dissolved in water the solution is homogeneous?
The sodium chloride solution of sodium chloride in water is homogeneous.
What is sodium chloride on the pH scale?
The water solution of sodium chloride is neutral.
