How does chlorine explode when mixed with water?
Chlorine doesn't explode when mixed with water. Pool water has chlorine in it. I think you meant sodium mixed with water, which does explode.
How do elements sodium and chlorine differ from the table salt form?
sodium is not eatible nor is chlorine. Chlorine is a chemical and when mixed with the sodium it forms a new eatible compound and this is salt or table salt.
Is there a chemical reaction if potassium chloride is mixed with sodium chloride?

What two chemical mixed together make chlorine gas?
Con HCl & MnO2
How is the compound sodium chloride different from the elements of which it is composed?
sodium chloride as a compound has different physical and chemical properties than sodium and chloride not mixed together

Explain how table salt has emergent properties?
Emergent properties are new properties that arise with each step upward in the hierarchy of life, owing to the arrangement and interactions of parts as complexity increases. The physical, chemical, and biological properties of salt are the emergent properties. Sodium is a metal and Chlorine is a poisonous gas, but when mixed together they form Sodium chloride, which has a crystal structure. This physical property is an example of how table salt is an emergent property. Table salt is said to have emergent properties because the compound has different characteristics from those of its elements. It is composed of Sodium which is a metal and Chlorine a poisonous gas but when chemically combined together they form an edible substance.
What happens when chlorine is mixed with sodium chloride?
Nothing at all. The sodium is fully oxidised in sodium chloride and chlorine gas has no effect. +++ "... fully oxidised..." Really? There is no oxygen in the compound, which is simply NaCl.

chloride Chlorine. Salt is Sodium Chloride (NaCl) my bobes
