- sodium chloride is the most used condiment, NaCl improve the taste of foods - sodium chloride is a good preservative for foods - sodium is indispensable for the human organism (also for many animals)
How does sodium and chloride ions get into sea water?
Sodium and chloride ions enter seawater primarily through the weathering of rocks and minerals on land. When rainwater, which is slightly acidic, erodes these rocks, it releases sodium and chloride ions, which are then transported to rivers and eventually flow into the ocean. Additionally, hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor also contribute to the influx of these ions by releasing mineral-rich fluids. Finally, human activities, such as agricultural runoff and industrial processes, can also introduce sodium and chloride into seawater.

Sodium chloride is indispensable for the organisms of all animals; but for a healthy human being the maximal daily intake will be approx. 10 g.
Why is sodium and chlorine edible when mixed together?
Sodium and chlorine combine to form sodium chloride, which is table salt. When mixed together, sodium and chlorine ions form a stable compound that is safe for human consumption. Sodium chloride is essential for health and is not harmful unless consumed in excessive amounts.
What are the salts in human blood?
