To make a salt, you can react an acid with a base through a neutralization reaction. For example, mixing hydrochloric acid (HCl) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) produces sodium chloride (NaCl) and water. Additionally, salts can be formed by the reaction of an acid with a metal or by the reaction of an acid with a carbonate, which also releases carbon dioxide. The resulting compound is typically an ionic solid that can be crystallized from the solution.
There could be many compounds in a solution. But there has to be at least two of them. For example salt water is a solution.
Salts as a group do but other compounds do not.
In acetone, the solute is any substance that dissolves in acetone. Common solutes could include salt, sugar, or other organic compounds.
A salt
A "salt" is another name for ionic compounds
Water, salt and ammonia are inorganic compounds.
It could be said that water molecules do have "holes", although a better term would be empty space. This is why compounds like sugar and salt can dissolve in water, as well as some other chemical properties that make this possible.
What allows compounds to dissolve such as table salt?
The silver-white metal used to make salt is sodium. Sodium is a highly reactive metal that is commonly found in salt compounds such as sodium chloride (table salt).
They form a salt maybe not table salt but a salt. NaCl is our common talbe salt, but chemistry sees many other compounds as salts.
Since the salt is heavier than the water its not going to evaporate. So after the water evaporates you have the salt and other compounds left. Which means you have separated water from other compounds. HOPE THIS HELPS
