What element is used in water softeners and used as an eyewash?
It isn't an element, it is the salt sodium chloride a compound.
Can you eat the salt used in water softeners?
Likely you can. While technically it just used to regenerate an ion exchange resin, it still has to be pure enough to not add any toxins to the water. Bear in mind that ion-exchange water softeners may use either sodium chloride or potassium chloride. Neither salt is particularly toxic, but potassium chloride tastes pretty bad.
What is the use of sodium chloride in water?
Sodium chloride doesn't react with water; in water NaCl is dissolved and dissociated in ions.Sodium chloride doesn't react with water; sodium chloride is dissolved and dissociated in water.
What pH is sodium chloride plus water?
all depends on how much water you put in and how much sodium chloride you used
Why is sodium chloride not suitable for recrystallization?
The crystallization/recrystallization of sodium chloride from water solutions is frequently used.
Why is an aqueous solution of sodium chloride not used to separate sodium from sodium chloride?
Because metallic sodium reacts quickly and violently with water.
Can you use sodium chloride rather than calcium chloride in fresh water swimming pool for hardness?
No, because it's not the chloride part that's responsible for the hardness, it's the calcium. Sodium chloride is actually used in water softeners, so it's not a great choice if you're looking to increase the hardness. You could use calcium hydroxide, though this will also make the pool more alkaline which may not be ideal.
What method can be used to extract large pure sodium chloride crystals from sea water?
Evaporating the water sodium chloride is obtained.
Sodium Chloride Irrigation is use for what?
Salted water is not used for irrigation in agriculture. Sodium chloride irrigation can be used for the nose disinfection etc.
Is sodium chloride solution a standard solution?
Sodium chloride is a crystalline solid but can be dissolved in water to form a solution.
What salts are used in saltbridge and why?
Water solution of sodium chloride is an electrolyte.
