Why does the cell membrane the tube worm stop the flow of excess salt into its body?
to maintain a stable environment
Unlike the resulting stable compound table salt the two gases making up this compound are?
sodium and chlorine
Which is an example of how the cell membrane of a tube worm maintained a stable environment?
Some examples of how the cell membrane of a tube worm maintains a stable environments are that: - It prevents minerals in the water from flowing into the cell. - It prevents salt from flowing in.
Why will atoms join together?
Atoms join together to become more stable. For example, a lone Na+ (sodium ion) will bond with a lone Cl- (Chlorine Ion) to form the stable compound NaCl (table salt).
What two compounds could you put together and make stable?
There are a great many possible answers to that question. One familiar example is sodium and chlorine, which combine to make the stable compound sodium chloride, also known as table salt.
How do you prevent a unstable salt from oxidising?
You must make it stable if it is unstable it will oxidise by definition. You would have to add another element to make the compound stable but you would then be changing it to a stable salt.
How is salt altered?
Salt is stable; but absorbtion of water transform sodium chloride into a solution.
Are sodium salts easily decomposed?
This depends for each salt; chlorides are stable, nitrates and carbonates are not stable.
Why Mohr's salt is considered a primary standard?
The Mohr salt is more stable to oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+.
What degrades salt?
Salt is very stable, cannot be degraded; only water absorption transform sat in a solution.
Which part of a tube worms cells keeps excess salt from entering the cells?
to maintain a stable environment
Which is more stable towards heat salt or sugar?
The melting point of table salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) is 801oC. The melting point of table sugar (sucrose, C12H22O11) is 186oC. You can melt sugar and even scorch it in your kitchen, but you can't do that with salt. So salt is more stable towards heat.
Is sodium likely to form a stable compound?
yes it can, table salt (NaCl)
What happens when sodium bromide is in water?
Sodium Bromide is a stable salt. It will dissolve in water.
Why is salt unreactice?
Sodium chloride is a stable compound.
Is a mixture of oil and vinegar a solution?
Yes water and vinegar form a stable solution.
Why you need to neutralize the positive and negative ion?
So that it is stable. A stable ion means that it is no longer reactive and can be used in daily life. Salt is a good example of this. Salt is etable because it has found an atom with which it can share 8 valence electrons with.
