Is salt and water a mixture soulution or both?

Salt dissolved in water forms a solution. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where the solute (salt) is evenly distributed in the solvent (water) at a molecular level. Each component retains its properties and can be separated through physical means.


Is salt water a colloid emulsion solution or suspension?

Salt water is a solution, not a colloid, emulsion, or suspension. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance dissolves in another at the molecular level. In the case of salt water, the salt (solute) is dissolved in the water (solvent) to form a uniform mixture.


Is salt water suspension?

A simple solution of salt in water is not a suspension; instead it is a true solution. If the salt water comes from a polluted part of the ocean, it may well be a suspension, but not because of its salt content.


When salt is dissolved in water what is the water?

The salt is the solute and the water is the solvent. Water is the solvent because it is what dissolves the solid salt into the solution. The water molecules pull apart the crystal structure of salt and surround the salt ions.


Does salt water condensate?

No. The reason for this deals with the nature of condensation and solutions. A solution is a liquid where the dominant liquid or solvent has other solids, liquids, or ions, in it called solutes. Saltwater is a solution where water is the solvent and the salts are the solutes. When a solution boils, the solutes and solvents split apart. For example, vodka is a solution where water is a solvent and alcohol is the solute. Since alcohol boils at a lower temperature than water the alcohol boils off before the water does. In the case of saltwater, the water boils long before salt. Condensation is when a gas turns into a liquid. Since the water vapor does not carry salt (i.e. fresh water vapor from boiled saltwater), it does not condense as saltwater but as fresh water.

Salt plus water?

Salt added to water form a solution, an electrolyte.


What is a solution and solvent?

Solution - a homogeneous, molecular mixture of two or more substances. Salt water is a solution of salt and water. Solvent - a substance that dissolves another to form a solution. In the above example, water is the solvent that salt is dissolved into to form salt water.


Is a salt a solution?

No, a salt is a compound. A salt maybe dissolved in water and made into a solution but as salt is not a solution per se.


Is removing salt from water a suspension or is it a solution?

Removing salt from water is a process, not solution/suspension. Salt form with water solutions.


What is the same with salt and water?

Salt and water form a saline solution.


Salt water it is a pure substance or solution?

Salt water is a solution, which is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. In this case, salt (solute) is dissolved in water (solvent) to form salt water.


What is the solvent in an aqueous solution of salt?

The solvent is water, the solute is salt; solvent and solute form a solution.


What is the solute and solvent of salt solution?

In a salt solution, such as salt water, the solute is the salt (sodium chloride) and the solvent is water. The salt particles dissolve in the water to form a homogeneous mixture.


What happens when table salt and water form a solution?

The table salt mixes with the water.


Can a mixture of salt and water be a solution?

Yes, a mixture of salt and water can form a solution. When salt is dissolved in water, the salt particles separate and disperse evenly throughout the water, creating a homogenous mixture. This mixture is called a saltwater solution.


Would salt and sand combine into a solution?

No, salt and sand do not combine to form a solution. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where the solute (salt) dissolves into the solvent (water) to form a single phase. In the case of salt and sand, they would form a heterogeneous mixture where the components remain separate and can be easily separated by physical means such as filtration.


In a salt solution why is water the solvent and salt the solute?

In a salt solution, water is the solvent because it is the substance that dissolves the salt. The salt is considered the solute because it is the substance that is being dissolved in the water to form the solution.
