Taste of sodium chloride plus water?

Sodium chloride is the chemical name for normal table salt, so the solution you are talking about is simply salt water. Go to you nearest beach and take a gulp of the water. That is what sodium chloride and water tastes like.


What is happening in terms of ion when sodium hydroxide neutralizes hydrochloric acid?

This reaction is a strong base reacting with a strong acid to give a salt (NaCl) plus water. The positive Na ion combines with the negative Cl ion to form the sodium chloride. The hydroxyl group of sodium hydroxide combines with the hydrogen of HCl (hydrochloric acid) to form water. The charge on Na (+1) neutralizes the charge on Cl (-1) and the same things happens with H+ and OH-.


What is strange about the metal sodium?

Sodium is strange because it is a soft metal that is typically stored under oil due to its high reactivity with air and water. When exposed to water, sodium can react violently, producing hydrogen gas and heat. Sodium is also commonly found in compounds like table salt (sodium chloride).


Name the following ionic compound using the stock system NaCl?

Chromium (II) Chloride. It's used for the synthesis of other chromium complexes. It dissolves in water to give bright blue solutions that are easily oxidized by ait to give Cr(III) containing products.


What is a polar molecule water methane sodium chloride carbon dioxide?

Water is a polar molecule with an unequal distribution of charges that give it a slight positive and negative end. Methane is nonpolar because it has a symmetrical distribution of charges. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound consisting of positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions. Carbon dioxide is nonpolar due to its linear shape and symmetrical distribution of charges.

What two substances react together to make sodium chloride and water?

HCl and NaHO, or in other words, hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide(lye).The reason for this is that when an acid and a base react together they create water and a type of salt. When HCl and NaHO react they create water and table salt. You can also reverse this reaction by mixing table salt and water and heating it up, which will give you the dangerous chemicals mentioned before.


Barium chloride and sodium sulphate in water react to give insoluble barium sulphate and the solution of sodium chloride?

Yes, it is true. The equation of reaction is :- BaCl2 + Na2SO4 --------> 2NaCl(aq.) + BaSO4 where solution is of sodium chloride and Barium sulphate settles down at the bottom as precipitate

What color does sodium chloride give on litmus paper?

Sodium chloride solution is neutral.


How does baking soda react in hydrochloric acid?

It forms Sodium Chloride,water and Carbon dioxide


Will adding sodium to chloride in water give salinity of the water?

Salinity (or 'saltiness') is due to the compound sodium chloride, written NaCl, and adding more of this will increase the salinity. However never add metallic sodium to water, it produces a violent and dangerous reaction. So when you say 'adding sodium to chloride' I'm not sure what you mean. The compound sodium chloride is just cooking salt and quite harmless and you can add as much of that as you like, but sodium as an element is a different matter.


Common salt dissolves in water easily .give reason?

Sodium chloride is a polar compound as water.


Is sodium chloride a liquid gas solid or aqueous?

Sodium Chloride is not a gas solid. It is in crystalline form which when heated, becomes molten. It never evaporates to give Sodium Chloride gas i.e. NaCl.


What solid product does calcium chloride and sodium carbonate give?

Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is insoluble in water.


Does sodium chloride give or take electrons?

No


What does zinc plus hydrochloric acid react to give?

The products are zinc chloride and hydrogen.


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.
