Why KCl or KF is added in the electrolysis of molten NaCl?

To decrease melting point of NaCl


When the sea in Chile evapourated why didn't the salt disappear with water?

salt has a much higher boiling point than water. Water will start evaporating, depending on the temperature, and the local saturation of the surrounding air (the humidity). Dissolved seasalt (NaCL -> Na+ + Cl- ) will stay behind, and eventually return to its salt-state. since its melting point is 801 °C (1,474 °F) and its boiling point 1,465 °C (2,669 °F), it will not evaporate.


Can melting point distinguish table salt and table sugar?

Salt or NaCl, has much stronger inter-molecular bonds that form a giant ionic structure in a tight latice. This is because NaCl molecules form stronger bonds than C12H22O11 because NaCl is smaller and it consists of fewer molecules. Being a compound of sodium which is a highly reactive and strong element, salt is much more stable than the carbon compound of sugar. Melting only requires breaking the intermolecular bonds which is difficult in sodium's case.


What does the melting and boiling point depend on?

In general, the melting and boiling points of substances depends on the strength of the forces holding the molecules or ions together, the intermolecular bonds. For example, sodium chloride is a giant ionic crystal lattice consisting of Na+ and Cl- ions. This structure is very strong due to the attractive forces between the ions, so a lot of energy is required to break the ionic bonds and melt NaCl, hence the melting/boiling point being very high. Conversely, a molecule like methane (CH4) has very little localised charge, it is not polar, and it is a small molecule so the attractive forces between molecules are weak and methane has a low melting and boiling point.


Does Fe or CCl4 have a higher melting point?

Water molecules, H2O have hydrogen bonding between molecules which means it is a liquid until 100 oC, 212 oF. Carbon tetra chloride/ tetrachloro methane is heavy but boils at 76.8 oC

What has a higher boiling point NaCl or Cl2?

NaCl is an ionic solid with a high boiling point. Cl2 is held together by weak dispersion forces and is a gas at room temperature. That means Cl2 has already boiled and formed a gas at a temperature lower than room temperature.
