Rock salt and rock candy
how do rock candy from
No. Rock candy is crystallized sugar.
Rock salt. Sodium is then extracted by molten salt electrolysis, which also produces large amounts of chlorine gas. Table salt could also be used but rock salt is cheaper.
In the rock candy factory...
rock salt is actually salt and not any type of rock. large size salt crystals are reffered to as rock salt because it is hard like rocks. its actually jsut large salt crystals. if you are looking to purify your salt you could always heat a pot of water and disolve the rock salt in it. once no more salt will desolve you can decant the salt water (poor the clear liguid off leaving behind the other stuff) into another pot leaving behind the impurities. then boil the salt water to evaporate the water leaving behind the pure salt crystals. Actually, the way to do it is. First mix the rock salt with water. The salt will dissolve and the rocks will stay. Filter it and the salt water will go through. Evaporate it and the salt will be left.
Sour candy does not taste like salt because the candy uses acids to make it sour, not salt.
You dont. When you boil it in water, the sugar dissolves. Then let cool and evaporate and provide a crystallization seed, e.g. a thread. The sugar will cristallize out in large crystals as rock candy.
Uh... blue jolly ranchers cotton candy cotton candy dum-dums I cant think of anything else!
You can find rock candy at candy stores or mabey at walmart and safeway!! :)
Rock salt is not a rock...its just a salt that can be extracted from salty water especially from sea water.
