The negatively charged ions (Cl-) and the positively charged ions (Na+) become solvated which is the process where a solute dissolves. The ions are surrounded by solvent molecules (water). For water bonds the oxygen is slightly negative and the hydrogen molecules are slightly positive; the shared electrons are pulled closer to the oxygen. The sodium ions are attracted to the oxygen's negative charge and the chloride ions are attracted to the hydrogen's negative charge.

What is a solvent solution?
A solvent is a substance that dissolves the solute in a solution. For example, in salt water, water is the solvent and the salt is the solute. Water dissolves the salt.
How does cold water affect how salt dissolves?
Cold water simply slows down the rate at which salt dissolves.
How does temperature affect how quickly salt dissolves in water?
the hotter the water or whatever liquid you use, the faster the salt dissolves
What happen to salt to ice water when added?
the salt dissolves and the water will become salt water
What type of matter is the salt water when it dissolves?
