During heating the internal energy is increased, the ordering of the chemical entities in the crystal lattice is destroyed and the substance is melted.

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.


Can sodium chloride melt at a very high temperature?

Yes you can melt it. But you want a high temperature.


How do you melt sodium chloride?

Sodium chloride is melted by heating at 801 0C.


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.


Why is it that sodium chloride does not dissolve when heated?

The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C.


WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SODIUM AND CHLORIDE IF THE SALT WATER IS HEATED?

The concentration of sodium chloride increase.


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.


Why does salt not melt?

Sodium chloride can be melted; the melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C.
