When salt (NaCl) is add into water (H2O), the individual ions of the salt (NaCl) become disassociated and uniformly spread throughout the water (H2O) forming a saltwater solution (Na[+ion] + Cl[-ion] + H2O).
All matter can be divided into two major groups: Pure substances and Mixtures. To classify matter into one of the two major groups you would first need to know if "it can be separated by a physical process". If it can be, then it is a mixture. If it can not be, then it is a pure substance. Both major groups then can be subdivide.
Mixtures can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous. If a mixture is "uniform throughout" then it is homogeneous, if not it is heterogeneous.
Pure substances can be either compounds or elements. If a pure substance "can be decomposed by a chemical process" it is a compound, if not it is an element.
You can physically raise the temperature of the saltwater (Na[+ion] + Cl[-ion] + H2O) and evaporate the water (H2O) changing its physical state. The individual ions (Na[+ion] and Cl[-ion]) would remain and being as their bonds are no longer disrupted by the water (H2O) would form the compound salt (NaCl).
Sodium chloride and water form a solution, a homogeneous mixture not a compound.
A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
Not, its a homogeneous solution (a mixture).
No, ocean water is not a compound. It is a mixture of various elements and compounds, including water (H2O), salts, minerals, and organic matter.
NaCl is an ionic compound. NaCl is sodium chloride.
Yes. When NaCl is added to water, it forms a solution, which is a homogeneous mixture.
NaCl in water is a mixture.
A NaCl solution is a mixture. It has Na+ ions, Cl- ions and water.
NaCl (sodium chloride) is a compound, not a mixture.
Water is a compound
Salt (sodium chloride) is a compound (NaCl) not a mixture.
NaCl is a compound known as the table salt.
