NaCl is the formula for common salt. The oceans contain vast amounts of dissolved salt. Places which are close to the sea, and which have a warm climate, create salt pans, which are shallow pools (salt lagoons), usually rectangular, into which the sea water pours. Following this the heat from the sun evaporates most of the water leaving damp salt behind. This is raked or shoveled up and stored in stockpiles.
Some places, like parts of Cheshire in England have deposits of salt underground. Unlike in an underground coalmine there are no explosive gases, so the salt can be mined in various ways. Some houses which lay above such saltmines descended to a lower level and were not "plumb", having to be braced up to prevent collapse.

Table salt is made from deposits of what mineral?
Sodium Chloride NaCl
Why is there salt?
Rains and rivers dissolve salt from salt deposits and transport NaCl in seas or lakes.
Why is there salt water?
Rains and rivers dissolve salt from salt deposits and transport NaCl in seas or lakes.
What chemicals are found in rocks like limestone?
Limestone does not contain sodium chloride (NaCl) It does contain calcium carbonate (CaCO2) and traces of MgCO2 No rock exposed to water contains sodium choride as the NaCl would wash out. There are beds o strata of NaCl below grround which contain the salt from ancients seas/ These salt deposits are protected from the effects of water by layers of anhydrous rock over them.
How many moles are present in 234g of NaCl?
1 mole NaCl = 58.443g NaCl 234g NaCl x 1mol NaCl/58.443g NaCl = 4.00 moles NaCl
How many grams are in 0.48 moles if NaCl?
1 mole NaCl = 58.44g NaCl0.48mol NaCl x 58.44g NaCl/1mol NaCl = 28g NaCl
How mny moles are in 23.34 of NaCl?
I'm going to assume that you mean 23.34g of NaCl. 1 mole NaCl = 58.442g NaCl (the atomic weight of Na and Cl in grams) 23.34g NaCl x (1mol NaCl/58.442g NaCl) = 0.3994mol NaCl
How many formula units in 3.6 grams of NaCl?
1 mole NaCl = 58.443g NaCl = 6.022 x 1023 formula units NaCl 3.6g NaCl x 1mol NaCl/58.443g NaCl x 6.022 x 1023 formula units NaCl/mol NaCl = 3.7 x 1022 formula units NaCl
What is example of a compound created by an ionic bond?
NaCl
How many grams are in 0.160 mole of sodium chloride?
1 mole NaCl = 58.44g 0.1601mol NaCl x 58.44g NaCl/mol NaCl = 9.35g NaCl
What is a chemical property of sodium?
- NaCl is a salt- NaCl is an ionic compound- NaCl is dissociated in water- Nacl is chemically stable
Chemical equation for sodium chloride?
The formula unit of sodium chloride is NaCl.
