Why is the sodium benzoate easily extracted into H20 while the original benzoic acid is not easily extracted into H20?

Sodium benzoate is a water-soluble salt, making it easily extractable in water. On the other hand, benzoic acid is a weak acid that is not as soluble in water as its sodium salt. The addition of sodium hydroxide converts benzoic acid to its more water-soluble salt form, sodium benzoate, which can easily dissolve in water.
