Of course not. It's all superstition. In fact, according to the superstition, throwing salt over your shoulder counteracts other things that bring bad luck supposedly, like breaking a mirror or spilling salt.
Nothing its a stupid superstition
over the left shoulder
The superstition surrounding spilling salt dates back to ancient times, with roots in various cultures. One popular theory suggests that spilling salt was considered bad luck because salt was a valuable commodity, often used to preserve food and ward off evil spirits. Additionally, in the Renaissance, it was believed that spilling salt angered the devil, and throwing a pinch over one's left shoulder would counteract the bad luck. This combination of cultural significance and religious connotations contributed to the superstition's persistence.
The superstition of Throwing salt over your left shoulder after spilling some applies to, apparently a devil is sitting on your left shoulder, and the force of the tiny salt particles knocks him off and he lands in a little heap on the floor. Then you should stamp on him. Do not throw it over your right shoulder as this is where your guardian angel is supposed to sit. This superstition is believed to come from the middle ages.
That depends on which salt it is. Sodium chloride would split into sodium and chlorine, but calcium fluoride would be split into calcium and fluorine.
