yes it is a compound
No - it is not a compound. There is no chemical interaction between the Na+, Cl- ions and H2O it is suspended in.
Water is a compound. Rust is a compound
Salt water is a suspension.
Water is a compound, Rust is a compound, but Salt Water is not. It is a mixture (or suspension), a combination of the compound Salt (NaCl) and Water (H2O)
Rust and Salt Water have nothing to do with each other. Rust is created in a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen:
2Fe (iron) + O2 (oxygen) --> 2FeO (iron oxide, commonly known as rust)
Salt Water is an aqueous solution, meaning the salt exists as it's separate ions within the water. NaCl and H2O molecules are not combined. The aqueous solution can be written as such:
Na+ + Cl- + H2O
Notice that there is no "-->" meaning no reaction has taken place and those ions and molecule I just wrote are not combining to form any compounds.
What else can I help you with?
Is salt example of chemical properties?
First of all, it's spelled chemical! second of all, its probably both, seeing it can be burned, and it can be crushed!
Is salt and water mixed a compound mixture or an element?
Both salt and water are compounds. Table salt is sodium chloride (NaCl) made up of the elements sodium and chlorine. Water is H2O so it is made up of the elements hydrogen and oxygen.
Is salt and water an inorganic compound?
Water is a molecule of oxygen with hydrogen. Salt is a molecule of sodium and chlorine. So it depends on which definition of "organic" you're appealing to: Organic: pertaining to, involving, or grown with fertilizers or pesticides of animal or vegetable origin, as distinguished from manufactured chemicalsNope! How about this one: Organic: of or pertaining to an organ or the organs of an animal, plant, or fungus Well, both water and salt pertain to organs -- without them most organs don't function well (or for long). In fact, many critters (humans included) have what amounts to sea-water in their veins, arteries and capillaries, and couldn't live without it at all. Organic: characteristic of, pertaining to, or derived from living organisms: organic remains found in rocks. Water and salt are characteristic of all kinds of living things, but water and salt existed long before life came about. There are other variations on the definition, but overall, I'd vote "No".
Which pair is classified as chemical substances?
Water and salt are classified as chemical substances. Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen molecules, while salt is made up of sodium and chloride ions. Both substances undergo chemical reactions to form new compounds.
What melts the solvent or solute?
Dissolving is not the same thing as melting. When you dissolve salt in water, for example, neither the salt nor the water melts. In the example of salt in water, salt is the solute and water is the solvent. The salt (which is the solute) is what dissolves (but does not melt).
Is salt water is an example of a compound?
No. Salt water is an example of a solution, in which salt is the solute and water is the solvent. Solutions are mixtures, not compounds.
What is a salt dissolving?
Salt is dissolved in water because both are polar compounds.
What is the source of salt why it dissolve in water?
Salt is easily dissolved in water because both are polar compounds.
Is water and salt inorganic compounds?
yes. both are inorganic
Which is a mixture salt salad carbon or water?
Salad is a mixture. Salt and water are both compounds and carbon is an element.
What are the compounds of a solution?
There could be many compounds in a solution. But there has to be at least two of them. For example salt water is a solution.
Are water salt and ammonia inorganic compounds or organic compounds?
Water, salt and ammonia are inorganic compounds.
What are compound example?
Some examples of compounds are water, table salt and sucrose. The water is H2O, table salt is NaCl, and sucrose is C12H22O11.
How does dissolving works with salt and water?
Salt is dissolving in water. It is different in other temperatures.
Is spoonful of salt in water compound or element?
The salt and water separately are both compounds (chemically bonded), ie; are different elements put together. Salt in water is a mixture that is not chemically bonded and can be separated easily. :)
Why is water and salt a compound?
No. Water and salt on their own are compounds, but together they are a mixture.
Why are water and salt inorganic compounds?
Water and salt doesn't contain carbon.
