Wash it down the drain with plenty of water - it is sold as lo-salt - low sodium (sodium-free) table salt.
No. You should use aquarium salt, sold at pet stores.
Aspirin, sold over the counter does not have codeine in it. Codeine is a narcotic.
Most people would consider table salt a pure compound, sodium chloride. But the table salt usually sold in stores is iodized salt: a mixture of sodium chloride, potassium iodide, dextrose, and calcium silicate (to prevent caking).
Sodium was not created. It occurs naturally. For example, every person's body needs a certain level of sodium to function. Native Americans "mined" salt from areas known as "salt springs" and showed settlers these areas. Settlers then acquired lands with salt springs and mined and sold "salt". It, or more accurately its compounds (such as the aforementioned "salt"), have been known since ancient times. The first person to isolate the pure metal was Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807.
Naproxen sodium and aspirin are different from each other. Naproxen sodium is what is known as an NSAID (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). Naproxen sodium is used to treat moderate to severe pain, fever, inflammation and stiffness. Naproxen sodium is sold under many brands, some of which are: Aleve, Anaprox, Miranax, Naprogesic, Naprosyn, Naprelan, Proxen, Synflex. Aspirin however, is a salicylate drug and is usually used to relieve minor aches and pains, to reduce fever, and as an anti-inflammatory drug. In most countries, Aspirin is sold under the Aspirin brand name.
Nope. "Common" salt is sodium chloride, which can be mined as "rock salt" or from the sea "sea salt. As the respondent says sea salt contains some iodine as well. Epsom salt is entirely different. It is magnesium sulphate, sold as a constipation remedy!
No, Some chlorides are gas and some are solid. For example, sodium chloride, table salt, is a sold under normal conditions of temperature and pressure.
If a person was following the daily recommended allowance for sodium and he/she received all their sodium from table salt, they would take 4000 mg (4 grams) per day, which is equivalent to 1600 mg of sodium. So table salt, sodium chloride, requirement for 1 year would be 4 grams x 365 days = 1460 grams of salt. In the United States, salt is sold by the pound (which weighs 454 grams). So, in a year, a person would need 3.22 pounds of salt, which costs about 85 cents per pound, so the total in salt would be $2.73 US. Most of the sodium we eat is not from salt but is already in the food, so this answer could vary greatly depending on your diet.
Actually, there are two sources of salt. One is sea salt and the other comes from mines. Your everyday table salt is mined salt. Mined salt is dug out, cleaned, bleached, and processed for human use. Sea salt comes from the sea through the natural process of evaporation. Salt beds are made with sea water and through time the water evaporates leaving the salt. The salt is then cut into blocks and sold. There are different colors of sea salt from white to black. It just depends on where the salt comes from in the world. It can also be bought as a fine grain salt to salt crystals.
Yes it does. In total, it has 84 minerals and trace elements in it. Table salt has 2; sodium and chloride. Most commercially sold 'sea salt' has 8 minerals because of the way it is processed in man-made collection pools.
In the United States, valproic acid and divalproex sodium are sold under the brand names Depekene and Depakote
