What is called the property of a salt by which it absorbs water from the atmosphere?
The property of a salt that enables it to absorb water from the atmosphere is known as hygroscopicity.
Does stainless steel rust when exposed to salt water?
Yes, stainless steel can rust when exposed to salt water, although it is more resistant to corrosion compared to other types of steel.
What will happen to metal when exposed to acid?
When exposed to acid, metal can undergo a chemical reaction known as corrosion or rusting. This reaction can result in the deterioration of the metal's surface, causing it to weaken and potentially break down over time.
What colour does litmus paper turn with common salt?
Litmus paper turns red when exposed to an acidic solution and blue when exposed to a basic solution. Common salt (sodium chloride) is neutral, so it does not significantly change the color of litmus paper.
What is the major product of auto oxidation of benzaldehyde?
The major product of the autooxidation of benzaldehyde is a crystalline white precipitate of benzoic acid. When few drops of benzaldehyde is exposed to the atmosphere by using a watchglass, it is oxidized to form carboxylic acid salt.
Salt water is best described as what?
Glaubers salt
What is a deliquescence?
any salt that absorb water or moisture when exposed to atmosphere to turn to a solution
Which categories could salt water be placed in?
Glaubers salt
What happen to metal when exposed to acid?
when metal react with an acid it forms a salt and hydrogen gas
What does the difference between the few crystals of anhydrous calcium chloride and a few crystals of Glauber's salt when are exposed to the atmosphere?
Calcium chloride easily absorb water, it is hygroscopic.
Why did my salt block explode?
A salt block can explode when it is heated too quickly or unevenly, causing it to crack and break apart. This can happen if the salt block is not properly preheated or if it is exposed to high heat too suddenly. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for heating and using a salt block to prevent it from exploding.
Why salt melts when in contact with atmosphere?
because of the water in the atmosphere
How does salt gain weight when exposed to the atmosphere?
All salts don't gain weight on exposure to atmosphere, some also lose weight and some show no change. There are two terms associated with these phenomena: efflorescence1 and deliquescence.Some salts absorb moisture from the atmosphere and dissolve in the absorbed moisture. Such substance is called deliquescent and phenomena deliquescence.Due to the extra water(moisture) added to the salt it gains weight.Common salt is not deliquescent but a small amount of deliquescent calcium and magnesium chloride impurities present in it absorb moisture from atmosphere and turn common salt wet and sticky ( especially during humid conditions)1. Efflorescence is the phenomena in which crystalline hydrated salts lose their water of crystallization, change to amorphous state and show a decrease in weight.
Forms salt when it gains an electron from a metal?
exposed
What happens after a glauber's salt is exposed?
it turns to an anhydrate
Why was salt not in clouds?
Because salt doesn't exist in the composition of atmosphere.
What is called the property of a salt by which it absorbs water from the atmosphere?
The property of a salt that enables it to absorb water from the atmosphere is known as hygroscopicity.
