It doesn't react in the sense that you're asking for - there isn't a formula to define it because the salt doesn't truly react unless electricity is applied. It dissolves and saturates the water without breaking/forming any chemical bonds. Therefore, it's more or less just:
NaCl(s) + H20(l) → NaCl(aq) + H20(l)
The abbreviations in parentheses are a notation that you may not have come across yet, but they signify the states of matter - (s) for solid, (l) for liquid, and (aq) for aqueous or suspended in a water solution.

The dissolution equation is NaCl --> Na+ + Cl-

What is the chemical reaction between Epsom salt and water?
it desolves in the water
What type of chemical reaction is an ionic compound called salt always produced?
A neutralization reaction will always produce a salt. Acid + base = salt + water
What chemical reaction happens to salt when you heat it?
when we heat the salt there chemical reaction is takes place
Is Reaction of hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide a chemical change?
yes its a chemical change you get table salt and water out of it
Is salt dissolved in water a chemical or physical change?
Dissolving salt in water is an example of a physical change. Although the ions of sodium and chlorine separate when the salt dissolves, no chemical reaction takes place.
What chemical reaction does the salt to the water?
Salt is dissolved and dissociated in water.
Is saltwater a chemical reaction?
Adding salt to water is not a chemical reaction, nor is it a chemical change. When salt dissolves in water, this is an example of a physical change. Although the sodium and chlorine ions separate in the water, no chemical reaction takes place.
How can a salt be produced by a chemical reaction?
The reaction of an acid plus a base yields SALT ( and water too)
What is the chemical reaction between Epsom salt and water?
it desolves in the water
Is dissolving salt in water a physical or chemical change?
Dissolving salt in water is a physical change- no chemical reaction took place. If the water evaporates, the salt is still there.
What Type of chemical reaction makes salt?
Water and base
Does salt and water have a chemical reaction when they come in contact?
No. Salt and water becomes a solution, not a new compound.
Is salt a chemical reaction?
A salt is a type of chemical compound, not a reaction.
What kind of chemical compound do salt in water form?
When salt is mixed in with water, they form a solution. Salt is the solute, and water is the solvent.
What is the chemical reaction between acid and base that takes place in water solution?
This is a neutralization reaction; the products are a salt and water.
What type of chemical reaction is an ionic compound called salt always produced?
A neutralization reaction will always produce a salt. Acid + base = salt + water
What is the key to a neutralized reaction?
Neutralization is a chemical reaction between an acid and a base; the products are a salt and water.
