What happens in arid climates when salts accumulate in cropland soils?

The soil becomes eutrophied, or contains too high of concentrations of salts, so most plants will not be able to live there, cause they need lower solute concentrations to survive. (The plant cells shrivel up from trying to diffuse too much water out of them in osmosis, in the process of lysis.)

Why do soluble salts accumulate the surface of some soils?
Well you see... the extragalactic nebulae influence the surface temperature of the soil creating a spontaneous supernova thus interacting with the inorganic scientifical compunds creating solube salts that are found in blackholes.
What is the balanced equation when potassium iodide is mixed with trisodium phosphate?
Nothing happens, all possible salts are very soluble: Potassium and sodium salts are always soluble!
What molecular compound that ionizes in water?
Any group one salts; Ca, Sr, Ba salts; nitrate salts; NH4 salts; C2H3O2- salts; Cl, Br, I salts except AgCl, PbBr2, and Hg2Cl2; SO42- salts except BaSO4, PbSO4, Ag2SO4 and SrSO4; Group II carbonates are insoluble.
What are copper salts?
Copper salts are salts of copper as chlorides, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, acetate etc.
What is elluviation?
Refers to the downward movement or loss of dissolved or suspended material within soil by leaching (i.e. salts, nutrients and silicate clays. elluviation leaves the topsoil or A horizon and creates the E horizon. Materials accumulate in the zone of illuviation or accumulation in the B horizon underneath the E horizon.
When ground water evaporates in the desert it can leave behind what?
Ground water can leave behind dissolved salts when it evaporates. As these salts accumulate they can have a very negative effect on desert plants or agriculture.
What happens when chloride salts are burned?
By heating many salts are melted.
What happens when salts are dissolved in water?
Ionic salts are dissociated in ions.
What happens when acids bases salts are mixed?
Acids reacting with bases form salts. Salts may soluble in acids.

What happens to the alkalis when they react with ammonium salts?
When alkalis react with ammonium salts, ammonia gas and another salt is produced
What happens if epsom salts and h2so4 mix?
Heat is produced
Does horse urine or manure kill pine trees?
Horse urine or manure does not kill pine trees. The urine should be diluted because salts can accumulate in the soil which is not good for the pine.
What is the balanced equation when potassium iodide is mixed with trisodium phosphate?
Nothing happens, all possible salts are very soluble: Potassium and sodium salts are always soluble!
What happens if a 9 pound dog drank some water with Epsom Salts in it?
Since epsom salts is sometimes used as a laxative, it could cause stomach upset and/or diarrhea.
What happens as aresult of the sun evaporating water from an ocean or lake?
Salts are obtained as a residual solid.
Why do salts of weak acids dissolve faster than the parent acid irrespective of pH?
This happens due to the increased solubility in the saturated film and diffusion layer of the salts of weak acids.
