No. Salt (NaCl) dissolves in water and the (Na) in it does not react with the water as would metallic sodium.

Is reacting a metal with water the same a reacting it with oxygen?

Not all metals react with water, but some, such as metallic sodium, do react quite vigorously with water. In a sense it is true that when metals react with water it is the same as reacting with oxygen, because the water molecule (H2O) does contain oxygen, and it is the oxygen in the water molecule with which metals react. Metals do not react with the hydrogen content of the water molecule, so when metal reacts with water, hydrogen gas is produced as a byproduct. It just bubbles out of the water.


What is the product formed by the reaction ''KBrO3 plus KBr plus H2SO4''?

KBrO3 and KBr do not react with each other because they have same cation K+, but separately they react with H2SO4. 2KBrO3 + H2SO4 -------> K2SO4 + 2HBrO3 2KBr + H2SO4 ----------> K2SO4 + 2HBr


Is the number of mole remain same if you add distilled water?

Yes, the number of moles will remain the same as long as the chemical does not react with water.


What happens if you add hydrogen ions to a neutral solution?

If you mix an neutral and an acid, The pH of the solution will be closer to 7 (neutral).Also if you mix an acid with an alkali (providing they are around the same strengh) it will turn neutral. Its like mixing orange juice with water, The juice is acid and the water is neutral, put water in the juice and it become weaker.


Why are oxgen atoms neutral?

oxygen atoms are neutral because it has the same number of electrons and protons, which is what makes an atom neutral. oxygen does react with some substances. pure oxygen reacts with fire Oxygen atoms are not neutral they are very reactive. Oxygen molecules are less reactive than lone atoms but as still highly reactive.


Does water react with water?

no, water and water are the same thing. If you put it all together, you would still have water, nothing changed except for quantity.


What makes pure water netural?

It has the same number of electrons as it does protons, so it has a neutral charge.


Why is water considered to be a neutral?

Because the number of hydrogen ions are the same as the number of Hydroxide ions.


Why does cabbage indicator stay the same colour in water?

Cabbage indicator stays the same color in water because water has a neutral pH, which does not cause the indicator to change its color. The pigment in cabbage indicator changes color in response to changes in the pH level of its environment, but since water has a pH level close to 7 (neutral), there is no significant change in color.


Plus how are all of the isotopes of an element similar?

All the isotopes of a chemical element have the same number of protons and electrons (in a neutral state).


Does the element Calcium react with water?

Technically salt does not react with water. It will dissolve in water which is not the same thing as causing a chemical reaction. Calcium by itself does not react with salt water -- it is dissolved into the water and is a crucial element of life for many salt-water species. Some compounds containing calcium may react with (or in) salt water.


Name 3 examples of neutral substances?

Pure elements cannot have pH levels, as pH levels are defined by hydrogen ions. Specifically, if a substance is heavily acidic, it donates hydrogen ions away, so if a substance has no hydrogen, it cannot do this at all.
