Ideally, water freezes when temperature is low enough for hydrogen bond to stabilize, due to less movement among the individual water molecules. What Na+ and Cl- ions do is they go in between the hydrogen bonds so that the H20 molecules cannot stabilize and thus, not only does it become solid at a higher temperature (ie increase it's freezing point), but it also causes water to have a higher melting point. That's why the pour salt when there's snow: so that it melts faster and easier.
What else can I help you with?
How does forming a bond between sodium and Chloride affect the melting point of sodium chloride?
The ionic bonding in sodium chloride is much stronger than the internal bonding in either element that forms sodium chloride; therefore, the melting point of the salt is much higher than that of either element that forms the salt.
How does sodium chloride affect pH?
It is approximately pH 7.
Why sodium chloride does not melt?
The solubilty of sodium chloride increase with the temperature but the effect is not so important.
Can sodium chloride affect rust?
Yes, the anion chloride (Cl-) has a corrosive action.
How much sodium chloride affect an aqueous solution?
The solubility of sodium chloride in water is 360,0 g/L at 20 0C.
What affect does salt have in foods?
Sodium chloride improve the taste of foods.
Does sodium chloride make you forgetful?
it does. not immediately but it will affect you over time.
What is pH level of sodium chloride solution?
The sodium chloride solution in water is neutral (pH=7).
How does temperature affect the solubility of sodium chloride?
As temperature increases, the solubility of sodium chloride also increases. This is because higher temperatures provide more energy for the water molecules to break apart the sodium and chloride ions, allowing more sodium chloride to dissolve.
What colour changes will appear when phenolphthalein is mixed with sodium chloride solution?
When phenolphthalein is mixed with sodium chloride solution, no color changes will occur. Phenolphthalein is a pH indicator that changes color in response to pH levels, while sodium chloride (table salt) does not significantly affect the pH of a solution.
What pH is sodium chloride plus water?
all depends on how much water you put in and how much sodium chloride you used
Can sodium chloride conduct in heat?
Sodium chloride (table salt) can conduct electricity in its molten state or when dissolved in water, but not in its solid form. Heat does not directly affect its ability to conduct electricity.
