Himalayan salt contains some minerals that are toxic in large quantities, including lead and plutonium, but which are safe in trace amounts. In addition to sodium and chloride the following elements are found in Himalayan Salts:
actinium, aluminum, antimony, arsenic, astatine, barium, beryllium, bismuth, boron, bromine, cadmium, calcium, carbon, cerium, cesium, chlorine, chromium, cobalt, copper, dysprosium, erbium, europium, fluorine, francium, gadolinium, gallium, germanium, gold, hafnium, holmium, hydrogen, indium, iodine, iridium, iron, lanthanum, lead, lithium, lutetium, magnesium, manganese, Mercury, molybdenum, neodymium, neptunium, nickel, niobium, nitrogen, osmium, oxygen, palladium, phosphorus, platinum, plutonium, polonium, potassium, praseodymium, protactinium, radium, rhenium, rhodium, rubidium, ruthenium, samarium, scandium, selenium, silicon, silver, sodium, strontium, sulfur, tantalum, tellurium, terbium, thallium, thorium, thulium, tin, titanium, uranium, vanadium, wolfram, yttrium, ytterbium, zinc and zirconium.
And these are almost all the elements in Periodic Table.

Potassium as K1+ " 3200
Manganese as Mn2+ " 0.15
It is a physical change because the chemical composition of salt and water do not change. You can separate the salt and water physically by allowing the water to evaporate, which leaves the salt.
Similar to table salt (NaCl), but purer: no iodine additions.Good info at http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/topics/Dishwasher
It depends on the chemical composition of the salt. If it is acidic or basic it will change the pH. The common salt (NaCl) is neutral in nature so it doesn't change the pH.
Yes, but this also depends on the chemical composition of the solvent and the conditions under which the dissolution occurs.
What is the chemical composition of kf reagent
salt=NaCl, its chemical composition
It is a Brand of Himalayan crystal salt(Pure organic salt) with no chemical treatment. Supposed to be highly alkaline in nature.
Yes. Pure table salt is Sodium chloride ( NaCl ) .
Common salt (Sodium Chloride) has the formula NaCl.
Himalayan salt is not iodized unlike many other salts. Pink Himalayan salt is also available.
It is a physical change because the chemical composition of the salt and water does not change.
The chemical composition remain unchanged.
No - aquarium salt has a different chemical composition to that of common table salt.
Each salt has a different chemical composition and consequently different chemical and physical properties.
It is a physical change because the chemical composition of salt and water do not change. You can separate the salt and water physically by allowing the water to evaporate, which leaves the salt.
No. a mineral is a compound of fixed chemical composition and of fixed crystal structure.
The chemical composition, the crystalline structure, the taste, the melting and boiling point etc.
