Dehydrated salt, often referred to as anhydrous salt, is a form of salt that has had its water content removed, resulting in a dry, crystalline substance. This process enhances the salt's shelf life and makes it more effective in certain applications, such as in chemical processes or as a desiccant. Common examples include anhydrous sodium sulfate and magnesium sulfate. Dehydrated salt is typically used in industrial applications, food preservation, and in laboratories.

Would you give someone who is dehydrated pure sodium chloride. Defend your reasoning and and explain your logic.?

Uh... Why would you give anyone that is dehydrated anything but water?-Salt does not hydrate the body. Only water (H2O) will hydrate the body. Salt will help retain water, but only if you're actually drinking water, which in the context of the question is not the case.-If you're referring to a salt water solution, then I wouldn't recommend anyone drink it whether they were dehydrated or not. Drinking only salt water would result in death from dehydration.So, no in both cases.
