Salt (table salt) is sodium chloride; after dissociation in water ions as Na+ and Cl- are relesed.

These ions can be identified by methods of analytical chemistry.

When you add water to salt does it then become hydrated?

Yes, when you add water to salt, the salt can absorb some of the water molecules, creating a hydrated salt solution. The water molecules surround the individual salt ions, helping to dissolve the salt.


How distill water can be made a conductor of electricity?

Distilled water is a poor conductor of electricity due to its low concentration of ions. To make distilled water conductive, ions can be introduced by adding a small amount of salt or acid. This allows the formation of charged particles in the water, facilitating the flow of electricity.


What happens when you add sodium chloride to water?

When sodium chloride (table salt) is added to water, it dissociates into sodium ions and chloride ions. These ions interact with the water molecules through a process called solvation, forming a solution of saltwater. The presence of these ions increases the conductivity of the water, making it a better conductor of electricity.


What substance should you add to salt water to make it less concentrated?

Add More Salt to make it more concentrated and add more wtaer to make it less concentrated


How much salt do you add to 130oz of tap water to make salt water?

Adding any amount of salt to water you obtain salt water; it is important to know the desired concentration.


Does pure water conduct electricity if not what can you do to make it conducting answer in detail.?

Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity because it lacks ions for the current to flow through. To make water conductive, you can add salt or another electrolyte to it. The salt dissociates into ions in the water, allowing it to conduct electricity.


What is happening when you add salt to water?

Depending on how much salt you add to the water and how warm the water is... the salt will disolve


The freezing point of water can be lowered by adding?

By adding any "foreign" molecules or ions. Such as if u add sugar or salt to water, it will lower the freezing point of water.


Why do salt crystals break up when you add water?

Adding water to salt crystals causes them to dissolve as the water molecules interact with the ions in the salt crystals, breaking the crystal lattice structure. This causes the salt crystals to break up and disperse evenly in the water.


What happens when you add salt to water and how does it affect the properties of the solution?

When salt is added to water, it dissolves and breaks down into ions. This process is called dissociation. The presence of salt in water increases the boiling point and decreases the freezing point of the solution. It also increases the density and conductivity of the water.


Why do acids conduct electricity when mixed with distilled water?

When you add an acid to water you make ions, and ions conduct electricity. For instance, if you add hydrochloric acid, HCl to water, you make H+ and Cl- ions in water. Water with ions in it, also called an electrolyte, will conduct electricity. The ions are able to carry charge and they are free to move in the solution.If you add a base to water, the same effect works just as well. All you need to conduct electricity in water is free ions in solution. Adding table salt to water will also work.


Can you turn drinking water into salt water?

just add salt to it
