What experiment can you could carry out to show rock salt is not as pure as table salt?

One experiment you could carry out is to dissolve both rock salt and table salt in water and compare the clarity of the resulting solutions. Rock salt typically contains more impurities than table salt, so the solution made from rock salt would likely be cloudier due to these impurities. Additionally, you could conduct a simple taste test to compare the purity of the two salts.


What is the difference between coarse salt and rock salt?

How would you get a pure sample of dry salt from rock salt?

Firstly you grind the rock salt with a pestle.Then you start to dissolve the salt. After that you filter it.Last but not least we allow the water to evapourate.In the evapourating basin there should be pure salt left over.Add. In rock salt, there will be other contaminants such as magnesium and calcium salts. These have different solubilities, and careful decanting is needed to decant the (say) Mg rich liquid, leaving the Na material behind.But this is the way it is done at the salt works.

To separate rock salt into salt crystals and pure dry sand, first dissolve the rock salt in water, creating a saltwater solution. Next, filter the mixture to separate the sand, which will remain on the filter paper, from the saltwater solution. Finally, evaporate the water from the saltwater solution to obtain pure salt crystals, leaving behind the dry sand collected from the filtration process.
