Yes, always for all mixtures.

Interestingly, the volume of the solution may not equal the volume of the two things before being mixed -- even for mixing two liquids.

Does the mass of water decrease when salt is added?

Because the formula for density=Mass/Volume, so since density of water is always constant, when the volume (the amount of water) increases, then the mass (in grams) will also increase to make sure the density # is the same. Mass and Volume are directly proportional. when one goes up, the other goes up, and vice versa.


Does antimatter have density?

density is the word used to describe how much is in a certain place e.g. 100ml of salt water has a higher density than the same amount of pure H2O because the salt water has both H2O and NaCl (salt) squashed into the same amount of space therefore everything has density if however if you meant mass or weight the answer would also be yes


Does the sun heat fresh water and salt water at the same time?

The sun heats both fresh water and salt water through a process called solar radiation. However, salt water has a higher heat capacity and can hold more heat than fresh water. This means that salt water will heat up more slowly than fresh water, but it will also retain heat for a longer period of time. In general, both types of water will eventually reach the same temperature when exposed to the same amount of sunlight.


Does rock salt dissolve in water?

Yes. Rock salt, which is largely the same as table salt, will dissolve in water.


What melts ice cubes faster sugar or salt?

You will have to do an experiment to determine the answer. You will need to think about having equal concentrations of salt or sugar in the cubes. The size of the molecules/particles is different. So 100 g of salt does not have the same number of molecules/particles as 100 g of sugar. The ratio of particles is 1:4.6 for the same mass of sugar to salt. You can see that this is not an easy question to answer. Which melts faster if the mass of salt and sugar is the same? Which melts faster if the number of particles is the same? The next problem is that salt actually separates into two particles when dissolved in water, sodium ions and chloride ions whereas sugar does not. So one salt particle is actually two ions and the ratio of particles now becomes salt:sugar = 2.3:1 for the same mass of substances. This sounds like a great project for someone to investigate.

When salt dissolves in water the amount of salt decreases or stays the same?

When salt dissolves in water, the amount of salt stays the same. The salt molecules spread out in the water but remain present in the solution. This is a physical change and does not involve the loss or gain of salt molecules.


What happens to the mass of water if you add salt?

When you add salt to water, the total mass of the water solution increases because the salt also contributes to the total mass. However, the salt dissolves into the water, so the mass of the water molecules themselves remains the same.


How is the quantity of salt affected when the salt is reclaimed from a salt-and-water solution?

The mass of salt reclaimed should be the same as the mass of salt that was put into the solution.


When salt dissolves in water does the amount stay the same?

yes


Is sea water the same as water?

No. Freshwater does not have the same amount of dissolved materials as sea water. Sea water has a much greater amount of salt dissolved in it.


When salt dissolves is its mass lost?

YES!! this is for anything you use with salt the mass will either decrease,increase or stay the same because the other chemicals mixing with the other properties that may be higher than salt it'll turn out some mass is lost or none.


How can you make salt water denser?

Density is the mass per unit volume. Therefore, adding salt increases the mass of the water by a larger scale than it does the volume of the water. Actually when you add salt to the same volume of water the mas of the water has a noticeable increase, where as the volume appears to the same ( the volume does increase; however the change is so small that it is unnoticeable ,thus we say it stays the same). So a larger mass divided by the same volume gives you an increase in density.


Why does the density of water increase when salt is added to it?

Density = Mass/Volume As salt(mass) increases and the volume remains the same, density also increases.


Does the concentration of salt decrease when water evaporates?

No, the concentration of salt remains the same even if water evaporates. However, the amount of water decreases, causing the remaining water to have a higher concentration of salt.


Who has salt water system for spas?

the same salt water system used in a pool is also fine for a spa. the amount of chlorine generated is determined by the input current to the salt cell and the amount of time in operation.


When you created salt water solution if you evaporate the water how many mg of salt would be left behind?

Exactly the same amount of salt as you weighed out to make the salt water solution in the first place.


If you double the amount of water how will the proportions by mass of hydrogen and oxygen in the water be affected?

The PROPORTIONS by mass will be unaffected, they will remain the same.
