Why the change in surface tension is much less when sodium chloride is added to water in place of an equivalent amount of ethanol?

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound that dissociates into ions when dissolved in water, causing no significant change in the cohesive forces between water molecules. Ethanol, on the other hand, is a covalent compound that disrupts the hydrogen bonding between water molecules, leading to a greater change in surface tension.
