∙ 12y agowell, salt is known as sodium in the Periodic Table of elements so i am quite sure it is a chemical substance.
hope that helps :)

∙ 9y agoRock salt is a chemical rock, since it forms as a result of salt dissolved in water coming out of solution.rock salt has the chemical properties to melt ice and snow
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoRoch salt is sodium chloride, NaCl; table salt may contain also iodine (as potassium iodide or iodate), anti-caking additives, etc.

Is rock salt organic?
Rock salt is a chemical sedimentary rock.
Is rock organic?
Rock salt is a chemical sedimentary rock.
What forms when minerals dissolved in a water solution crystallize?
Non-Clastic, or chemical, sedimentary rock is formed from dissolved minerals. These rocks are made of chemical sediments that have been dissolved from minerals. Solid minerals precipitate out of the solution in water. These minerals layer, and the water above them causes the pressure which forms the rock.
How are organic rocks and chemical rocks similar?
Both organic sedimentary (like coal) and chemical sedimentary (like rock salt) rocks are not composed of particles of other rocks, as are the bulk of sedimentary rocks classified as clastic (shale, sandstone, conglomerate).
How are detrital chemical and biochemical sedimentary rocks different?
Detrital rocks are composed of rock particles, chemical sedimentary rocks are composed of precipitated minerals.Examples:Detrital or clastic rocks:ConglomerateBrecciaSandstoneShaleChemical sedimentary rocks:Rock saltSome limestonesRock gypsumWhat_is_the_difference_between_detrital_and_chemical_sedimentary_rock

What are the main types of clastic sedimentary rocks?
Make a list of the properties of each describing each property. In this way the similarities and differences will become more transparent. Asking others to complete your assignment or homework is self defeating.
What is a expample of deritral sedimentary rock?
Rock salt, rock gypsum, and some forms of limestone.
Which rock has a clasic texture......... a rock salt b gypsum c marble d sandstone?
You probably mean clastic. In that case: Sandstone.
