Sodium Chloride - a white crystalline solid consisting mainly of sodium chloride (NaCl) common salt

binary compound - chemical compound composed of only two elements

atomic number 17, chlorine, Cl - a common nonmetallic element belonging to the halogens; best known as a heavy yellow irritating toxic gas; used to purify water and as a bleaching agent and disinfectant; occurs naturally only as a salt (as in sea water)

halite, rock salt - naturally occurring crystalline sodium chloride

brine, saltwater, seawater - water containing salts; "the water in the ocean is all saltwater"

A colorless or white crystalline compound, NaCl, used in the manufacture of chemicals and as a food preservative and seasoning.

Normal solution is a mixture of two or more substances in which the molecules or atoms of the substances are completely dispersed

An aqueous solution is a solution in water

solution - a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances; frequently (but not necessarily) a liquid solution; "he used a solution of peroxide and water"A saline solution is an isotonic solution of sodium chloride and distilled water Sodium chloride is readily soluble in water and insoluble or only slightly soluble in most other liquids. It forms small, transparent, colorless to white cubic crystals. Sodium chloride is odorless but has a characteristic taste. It is an ionic compound, being made up of equal numbers of positively charged sodium and negatively charged chloride. When it is melted or dissolved in water the ions can move about freely, so that dissolved or molten sodium chloride is a conductor of electricity; it can be decomposed into sodium and chlorine by passing an electrical current through it
