What does sodium chloride become when heated?

When heated, sodium chloride (table salt) remains as solid salt. When heated to very high temperatures, around 801°C (1474°F), it will melt into a liquid form. Only when it reaches the extreme temperature of 1465°C (2669°F) does it decompose into its constituent elements, sodium and chlorine.

Why does solid sodium chloride melt when heated strongly?

Solid sodium chloride melts when heated strongly because the heat energy supplied overcomes the strong electrostatic forces holding the ions in the lattice structure together. This causes the lattice to break down, allowing the sodium and chloride ions to move more freely, turning the solid into a liquid.


What is the residue when sodium chloride water solution was heated to dryness?

When a mixture of sodium chloride and water is heated to dryness, the residue is sodium chloride, because the boiling point of sodium chloride is much higher than the boiling point of water.
