Is table salt a element mixture or compound?
i say its a compound
How many chloride ions are in sodium chloride?
Well...depends who you ask :P. I guess two. Sodium Chloride is NaCl. It's an "ionic compound" which means the atoms are not covalently bonded, they actually exist as Na+ and Cl-. At this point, it's worth mentioning that an ion is any charged species. Positive or negative, they're both ions. The reason it's a bone of contention is because bonding is not black and white. Covalent or ionic...it's a sliding scale and you can't just say where one begins and the other ends. That said, it is widely accepted that NaCl is a highly ionic bond.
What is another way of saying ''Table Salt''?
NaCl sodium chloride
Which is present in sea water in greater amount between sodium chloride and calsium?
I would say sodium chloride as it is also known as salt-water, calcium is found in chalky cliffs "white cliffs of dover", so near there may be a high amount but sodium chloride would be in greater amounts in the majority of sea water
What is a sulfate free and sodium chloride free shampoo?
Organix makes two types that are both sulfate free and sodium chloride free. They're both ever straight, one is a brown bottle and one is a pink bottle, but they both say sodium chloride and sodium free on the bottom above the Organix label!
Is sodium chloride a homogenous compound?
Yes, but it is redundant to say "homogeneous compound" as a compound is, by definition, homogeneous.
Is table salt a element mixture or compound?
i say its a compound
How can you say sodium chloride is a compound?
Because it is a definite substance formed from two different atoms: Na and Cl.
Will adding sodium to chloride in water give salinity of the water?
Salinity (or 'saltiness') is due to the compound sodium chloride, written NaCl, and adding more of this will increase the salinity. However never add metallic sodium to water, it produces a violent and dangerous reaction. So when you say 'adding sodium to chloride' I'm not sure what you mean. The compound sodium chloride is just cooking salt and quite harmless and you can add as much of that as you like, but sodium as an element is a different matter.
Is a table salt an element a compound a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
A compound. As a solid, table salt consists of sodium cations (Na+) and chlorine anions (Cl-) which are arranged into a giant ionic lattice structure (which is held in place by the electrostatic attraction between the opposite charges on the ions) - the structure does not conduct electricity. In solution, this structure is lost as the salt dissolves; the oppositely charged ions are free to move about and pass each other, enabling the solution to conduct electricity. I would say that in solution or in a 'mixture' - depending on whether it is saturated, that it is a homogenous mixture as there is no physical difference in the state of the components of the mixture. Na+Cl-
Why is it correct to say salt is a compound?
Salt is a compound because it is made up of two or more different elements chemically bonded together. In the case of table salt (sodium chloride), it is composed of sodium and chlorine atoms that are bonded in a specific ratio to form a new substance with unique properties. This distinguishes it as a compound rather than a simple mixture of elements.

is seawater a compound mixtue or element?
sodium is an element and also can be an ingredient of a compound. Sea water contains sodium(salt). They say rainwater is acidic, and if it is then the seawater also contains a form of acid, which is a compound to many types of solutions. Answer to your question: BOTH
What is the structural formula of NaCl?
Sodium Chloride is standard table salt. It is simply NaCl. You cannot however say salt in chemistry as the likes of Potassium Bromide, Copper sulphate, Hexamine are all considered salts (Many many many more)
Does sodium chloride has strongest or weakest molecular forces?
Sodium chloride has strong ionic bonds between its sodium and chloride ions, resulting in strong intermolecular forces. These forces make sodium chloride a solid at room temperature with a high melting point.
What is another way of saying ''Table Salt''?
NaCl sodium chloride
Is salt indestructible?
No. It has a melting point, which is relatively high, and it can be dissolved in water. Once disolved in water, to form a Sodium chloride solution, if some other substance, such as Silver nitrate could be added which would produce a Sodium nitrate solution and a precipitate of Silver chloride. If this were done carefully no Sodium chloride would remain so you could say that it had been "destroyed."
