Sodium chloride in water can:
- Make it unsuitable for drinking as there is a salty tasye
- Make it unsuitable for irrigation as it interferes with the osmotic pressures in plant roots
- Can destroy the ionic structure of clay soils
- Can corrode iron and other metals exposed to the water
- Interfere with fish life an d breeding

Describe a way to remove sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride can be removed from solution by distillation. Boiling a solution of sodium chloride will cause the water to boil off and the sodium chloride to be left behind. If the water vapor is then condensed, the water obtained will be free of sodium chloride.
What property of ammonium chloride enables it to be separated from Na Cl from sand?
NaCl, table salt, and ammonium chloride will both dissolve in water. Sand is only sparingly soluble in water. If you want to further separate ammonium chloride from sodium chloride, you will need to dry the resulting solution. The sodium chloride will precipitate out first. The ammonium chloride will remain in the supernatant and can be poured off leaving the sodium chloride crystals behind.
How could you tell if an unkown substance is sodium chloride or calcium carbonate?
Add dilute hydrochloric acid to both. There will be no reaction with the sodium chloride but the calcium chloride will effervesce and give off carbon dioxide which will turn lime-water milky.
How sodium chloride is separated from its solution with water?
By evaporation or boiling off the water. Reversed osmosis is another one (advanced filtration technique)
How do you get to dogs butt off each other?
just put SODIUM CHLORIDE IN IT then puff they are off each other SODIUM CHLORIDE-(SALT)
How can you separate sodium chloride from water?
to separate sodium chloride: use the method of electrolysis. as we put sodium chloride i the test tube the Na and the Cl start separating because of the current passed: the chlorine attract to cathode as the poles are unlike. and the sodium attract to the anode because of unlike poles. cathode id basically a - cell. and anode is a positive one remember: the reason why sodium attract to anode is becoz its negative in nature whereas chlorine is positive in nature( except hydrogen all gases are positive in nature) (and the metal is always negative)
What compound is formed from sodium bicarbonate and calcium chloride?
When calcium chloride dissolves, it is rather exothermic (which makes it a good deicer for sidewalks). After mixing: the sodium and chloride ions will remain in solution and do nothing. The bicarbonate and calcium will react in a strange way. Ca2+ + 2 HCO3- → CaCO3 + H2CO3 As the calcium carbonate drops out of solution, the equilibrium of this reaction is further driven off to the right thus creating more carbonic acid. Carbonic acid easily decomposed to form water and carbon dioxide. H2CO3 → H20 + CO2 So, when you mix calcium carbonate and sodium bicarb, you get: Carbon dioxide gas, calcium carbonate solid, water and sodium and chloride ions.
Does sodium chloride and charcoal give off similar colors?
Of course not.
Why is sodium chloride not like the elements that form it?
elements are ...F*** OFF
What happens when sodium chloride and water is heated?
The water will boil if its temperature is brought high enough. The significant difference between boiling water and boiling water with sodium chloride in it is that the NaCl water will boil sooner. Adding salt to water will lower its boiling point as well as its freezing point. This is also why the road is salted in sub zero weather: to hinder the road from becoming icy.
With the help of an experiment how will you separate a naphthalene ball and a mixture of naphthalene and sodium chloride?
To separate naphthalene balls from sodium chloride, simply add water until all the sodium chloride is dissolved. Then either filter, or just pour off the solution, and the naphthalene balls will be left behind. Naphthalene is very insoluble in water, and sodium chloride is very soluble in water.
What gas does NaCl give off?
Chlorine can be obtained from sodium chloride by electrolysis.
