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.
Salt water is not the same as sodium. Salt water is a mixture of water and dissolved salts, while sodium is a chemical element found in salt known as sodium chloride. Salt water contains a variety of dissolved salts, not just sodium.
When salt is dissolved in water, it forms a solution where the salt particles break apart and disperse throughout the water. The water molecules surround and interact with the separated salt particles, enabling them to spread evenly throughout the solution.
Firstly, pure salt is white and it becomes colourless when dissolved in water. Secondly, solid salt is a non-conductor of electricity, whereas the solution is an electrolyte and conducts well.
Water would be the solvent in this case.
The salt dissolves in the water and the sand does not.
Yes. But this occurs because salt is soluble in water, in which the coloring is dissolved. The color is retained by the salt crystals when they dry.
salt when dissolved in water will become an acidic 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.
When salt is dissolved in water, it is in a dissolved state where the salt particles break apart into ions. This creates a solution where the salt ions are surrounded by water molecules.
Brine.In your example, the salt is the solute while the water is the solvent.
When salt is dissolved a water sodium chloride solution is obtained.
The separated salt is a crystalline solid; the dissolved salt is dissociated in ions.
Salt
Salt is very soluble in water.
Salt water is a solution of salt dissolved in water.
Salt is the solute (the substance being dissolved) and water is the solvent (the substance doing the dissolving.
