Are Sodium Chloride 0.9 percent and Normal Saline the same solution?
Sodium chloride 0.9 percent and normal saline are not quite the same solution. While they share the same osmolality, sodium chloride contains more salt.
Why do sodium chloride and the solutions of sodium nitrate and sodium chloride all impart the same color flame?
The color is from sodium, not from Cl or Nitrate - NO3.
Are sodium chloride and potassium chloride isomorphic?
Yes, they have the same "halite" crystal structre
Is sodium chloride the same as Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride?
nope, its fine to have it in shampoos dont worry
Why potassium chloride can be used as a substitute for sodium chloride?
Potassium and sodium are categorised under the same group which is Group 1 in the Periodic Table of Elements which consists of alkali metal. Therefore potassium and sodium possess the same chemical properties.
How are Epsom salts and table salts the same?
They are different compounds: table salt is sodium chloride, Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate heptahydrate. They are ionic salts.
How are Epsom salt and table salt the same?
No. While not poisonous, Epsom salt is not sodium chloride; it is magnesium sulfate.
Is epsom salt and sea salt the same?
Sea salt is sodium chloride - NaCl. Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate - MgSO4.7H2O.
Why does iodized salt grow more crystals than epsom salt?
Sodium chloride (iodized table salt has small amounts of potassium iodide added) is not as soluble as magnesium sulfate (epsom salts). As two solutions with the same concentration cool down the sodium chloride will reach saturation first and produce crystals.
Is traquility bath salts the same as Epsom salts?
No, they are different.
Is an alkali and a salt the same?
No. Salts are the compounds of various elements, for example, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and most of them have a neutral pH.
Is salt and calcium chloride the same?
Common table salt is sodium chloride, which is different from calcium chloride. However, calcium chloride is a remember of a class of compounds known as salts.
Why is it possible to separate sodium chloride from the other salts?
it is possible because of the pressure.,the gravity that takes place on it.,it is also same in taking salts in seawater.,
What is the chemical equation of epsom salts?
MgSO4 or magnesium sulfate is the same as epsom salt
Can table salt be used in place of Epsom's salt?
Not really. Table salt is Sodium chloride whereas Epsom salt is Magnesium Sulfate and is composed of magnesium, sulfur and oxygen and unlike table salt, it has to be refined before it has any particular use. Table salt will not have the same muscle relaxing effect as Epsom salts, and you may find table salt more drying to the skin.
Is epsom salt and salt the same?
