Because the compound is harmless.
Salt is a compound made of two elements: sodium and chlorine. It is scientifically named as sodium chloride, and the symbol is Na+Cl-. The type of the bond is ionic. Chlorine is a poisonous substance that exists as a greenish gas at room temperature. But when it bonds with sodium, it gains an electron from sodium. This small change results in becoming safe to eat when bonded to sodium.
Because it is table salt
the mixture between the two creates a safe neutral compound
no
Chlorine can certainly make your liner very brittle.
sodium+chloride-> salt
It is possible because sodium and chlorine put together is a harmless compound. If you were to put chlorine and bleach together, that would be a different story.
because when sodium combines with chlorine, the properties change.
We are able to eat table salt without getting poisoned because, when sodium and chlorine are mixed they form table salt, table salt is an compound & an compound has totally different properties than its constituents ,so the poisonous properties are changed n we are able to eat the table salt without getting poisoned....
Table salt is a compound of sodium and chlorine. The properties of a compound are entirely different from those of its constituents. A compound cannot be separated into its constituents by physical processes. Hence, when sodium and chlorine chemically combine in a fixed proportion by mass, sodium chloride is formed which do not cause any harm.
The propertys of the elements change. For example:both chlorine and sodium are highly reactive, but whenthey combine the form a compound. this compound iswhich alot of people eat everyday.
The compound sodium chloride (NaCl) is also known as table salt, and it is eaten by everybody. The elements sodium and chlorine are not eaten in their elemental form, however, and would be extremely toxic if you tried to eat them.

Because When you mix them together and add other ingredients it is not harmful. Think of it as a raw steak, you cant eat that. but when you cook it you can.
No. Take sodium chloride. Sodium is a metal that's flammable in air, and chlorine is a gas. Put them together, and you get nice inert crystals that are safe to eat.
No. For one thing chlorine in its elemental form is a gas and so can't be eaten. Second, it is highly toxic. However, you eat chlorine every day, every time you consume ordinary salt. Salt is a chemical combination of sodium and chlorine: sodium chloride.
its table salt
