Why do salt and water have different properties?

They have different properties because the element that make up these compounds are different, water is made up of 2 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen while table salt is made of a sodium and a chlorine atom. These different combinations make up different properties. Why the elements that make up these compounds have different properties however is a different question.


Did the properties of table salt and water change when they were stirred together?

Salt dissolves in water. The resultant liquid has higher density than pure H2O. Teh salt solution has less electrical resistance than pure water, it tastes different too. Depending on how much salt and how much water were mixed, some salt might remain undissolved (the mixture is saturated).


Table salt is made from sodium and chlorine which are poisonous Still you eat table salt without gettin poisonedExplain why?

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....


What is the same and different between fresh water and salt water?

Salt water contain dissolved sodium chloride; chemical and physical properties are different compared with fresh water.


How is an aqueous solution of table salt different from an aqueous solution of table sugar descibe how each solution forms?

An aqueous solution of table salt (sodium chloride) forms when salt crystals are dissolved in water. The salt crystals dissociate into sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-) ions in the water. An aqueous solution of table sugar (sucrose) forms by dissolving sugar crystals in water. The sugar molecules do not dissociate into ions in water like salt does, but rather stay intact as individual sugar molecules.


What is the first dissolve in water rock salt or table salt?

Table salt.


What happens when table salt and water form a solution?

The table salt mixes with the water.


Is table salt a basic salt?

No, sodium chloride has no acid-base properties.


How are table salt and water alike How are they different?

Table salt (sodium chloride) and water (H₂O) are alike in that they are both essential for life and commonly used in cooking and food preparation. They differ in their chemical composition; table salt is an ionic compound made of sodium and chloride ions, while water is a molecular compound composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Additionally, salt is a solid at room temperature, while water is a liquid. Their physical properties and roles in biological processes also vary significantly, with salt acting primarily as a seasoning and preservative, and water serving as a solvent and medium for biochemical reactions.


What is a combination of two or more atoms and has different physical and chemical properties than its individual atoms?

NaCl, or table salt.


Can table salt dissolve in fat?

Table salt (sodium chloride) does not dissolve in fat. Salt is ionic and soluble in polar solvents like water, while fats are nonpolar substances. The chemical properties of salt and fat prevent them from mixing or dissolving in each other. Therefore, if you add table salt to fat, it will remain undissolved.


Can table salt be used in place of Epsom's salt?

Not really. Table salt is Sodium chloride whereas Epsom salt is Magnesium Sulfate and is composed of magnesium, sulfur and oxygen and unlike table salt, it has to be refined before it has any particular use. Table salt will not have the same muscle relaxing effect as Epsom salts, and you may find table salt more drying to the skin.
