What else can I help you with?
When a salt crystal is dropped into water the water molecules are attracted to the salt's ions and will surround them What is this called?
This process is called dissolution. Water molecules surround the individual ions of the salt crystal, separating them from the crystal and forming a solution.
A salt crystal is held together by?
Ionic bonds
Why do salt crystal grow?
with salt and bioling water
Why water can break down salt crystals?
When salt is added to water, the water molecules surround the individual sodium and chloride ions, causing them to break apart from the crystal lattice structure. This process is called hydration and it weakens the attractive forces holding the ions in the crystal, eventually dissolving the salt.
How does a crystal of common salt dissolve in water?
When a crystal of common salt is placed in water, the water molecules surround the individual sodium and chloride ions in the crystal, pulling them away from the crystal lattice. This process causes the crystal to break down into individual ions, which are then dispersed and dissolved throughout the water, forming a salt solution.
Do you make salt water with salt and water?
No, well not exactly if you mix it and drink it, it will be salt water but if you wait a couple of days it turns into a crystal
What is the objectives of this activity.Which will dissolves faster the crushed salt or the crystal salt?
The objective of this activity is to compare the dissolution rate of crushed salt versus crystal salt in water. Crushed salt will dissolve faster than crystal salt because its larger surface area allows for quicker interaction with the water molecules, resulting in faster dissolution.
What do crystals and boiling water make?
the water evaporates leaving salt crystal
Do salt crystal grow faster in tap water or distilled water?
Distilled.
What is one piece of salt called?
A single piece of salt is called a grain or a crystal.
Why is water a solvent and salt the solute in a salt solution?
Water is the solvent because it is what dissolves the solid salt into the solution. The water molecules pull apart the crystal structure of salt and surround the salt ions.
Table salt forms a crystal in which the elements are held together by?
Table salt forms a crystal lattice structure in which the positively charged sodium ions are attracted to the negatively charged chloride ions through ionic bonding. This strong electrostatic attraction keeps the elements held together in a stable crystal.
