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.
The salt in the ocean is considered a non-living, abiotic load. It is a dissolved solute that contributes to the salinity of the water.
The mixture of water vapor, carbon dioxide, oxygen gas, and salt water is salt water. Salt water is a solution composed of water and salt (sodium chloride), along with some dissolved gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Most of the salt water on Earth is stored in the oceans. The ocean contains about 97% of the Earth's water, and this water is salty due to dissolved minerals and salts.
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.
compound sorry, it's actually a mixture, see the "Is salt water a compound?" question I just answered.
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.
The separated salt is a crystalline solid; the dissolved salt is dissociated in ions.
