Rising the temperature to 801 0C sodium chloride is melted.
NaCl has the highest melting point (between NaCl and H2O)
Melting point of NaCl: 801 0C Boiling point of NaCl: 1 413 0C.
Because NaCl is stable to thermal degradation and is an ionic compound.
To decrease melting point of NaCl
The sodium chloride density is 2,165 g/cm3 and the melting point is 801 0C.
The melting point of NaCl is 801 0C. The melting point of CaCl2 (anhydrous) is 772 0C.
The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C.
The simple explanation- it takes less energy to beak up the ionic lattice of NaCL than it does to break up the metallic lattice of Mo. Molybdenum is high melting metal, mp. ca. 2600 C. (thats really hot!) The reasons why some metals are high melting and some are low is complex. In simple terms Mo has a very strong metallic bond. Nacl is an ionic compound, these generally have high melting ponts NaCl is ca 800 C (thats also very hot but obviously much less than Mo. Predicting melting ponts is difficult.
They both allow ions to be mobile and thus allowing them to be conductors of electricity.
Because it is a ionic compound.
During melting the chemical composition of NaCl is not changed.
NaCl, common table salt, has a rather high melting point. The substance with the lowest melting point is helium. Helium has no solid phase, it melts at any temperature above absolute zero.
