Salt particles are smaller than water particles. Salt contains one part each of sodium and chloride. Water contains three parts, 2 parts hydrogen, and 1 part oxygen.

A pouch with a selectively permeable membrane conting a salt soluction is immersed in a dish of fresh water which way will the water move into the pouch or out of the pouch?

the water will flow in because the molecules in the pouch cannot flow out and the water particles will be able to flow in because they are smaller than the salt particles.

Which dissolve faster granules of table salt or crushed salt?

Table salt because the particles are smaller and water can surround each particle easier to dissolve them. Granules is har to dissolve becauseit is thick than salt since it is loosen.. HOPE DIS HELPS


Is salt water denser than sugar water?

Yes, salt water is denser than sugar water because salt particles are heavier than sugar particles, creating a higher mass per unit volume in salt water. This difference in density is due to the molecular structure and composition of salt and sugar molecules.


What holds heat longer salt water or fresh water?

Salt Water, do to its small salt particles which not only the water holds the heat ,but the salt particles TOO!!! Most brines for heat transfer systems are very heavily salted solutions to the point where there is more salt than water [by weight] in them.

Why does saturating warm water with salt take faster than saturating regular water with salt?

Think about the particles. When you heat something up, the particles move around more. In this case, because the water particles are moving around more, they collide with the salt particles more often, and with greater force, thus speeding up the breaking up of the salt.


What is thicker salt or sugar?

"Thicker" is not an adjective that makes sense in this context.


Use the particle theory of matter to explain why table salt dissolves more rapidly than rock salt?

Table salt is made up of smaller clumps of particles than rock salt. To dissolve, particles of the salt must come in contact with the solvent particles than rock salt, resulting in faster dissolving. (Copied from the Pure Substance & Mixtures Section of some Nelson Literacy Science Text Book) :)
