Is dissolving sodium chloride a physical change?

Yes, dissolving sodium chloride in water is considered a physical change. This is because only the state of matter changes (solid to aqueous solution), and no new substance is formed.


Name the two ions found in sodium chloride?

The two ions found in sodium chloride are sodium ion and chloride ion. Actually sodium chloride crystals are made up of these two ions which are arranged in a cubical crystal structure with each ion surrounded by 6 ions of the other type1 . The sodium ion is positively charged( called cation) and chloride ion is negatively charged( called anion) and due to electrostatic forces of attraction they are held together.[ Na+Cl- ] ---> Na++ Cl-(in solid) (in solution or fused state)In solid state ions are held together but in fused state or in aqueous solution ions get separated and become mobile. Electrolysis of such a solution can give information about composition of sodium chloride.1. The coordination number of sodium chloride is 6


What happens when sodium chloride melts?
