It doesn't disappear so much as dissolve. The ionic bonds that form the crystal lattice between sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) are broken in water, causing the ions to float about in the water.

Does salt disappear in water?

No, salt does not disappear in water. When salt is added to water, it dissolves to form a salt solution. The salt particles are still present in the water, but they are not visible to the naked eye.


How does heat affect salt?

When heat is applied to salt, it can cause the salt to dissolve more easily in a solvent like water. Heating salt can also lead to the release of moisture that may have been absorbed by the salt, causing it to form clumps. Additionally, excessive heat can cause salt to undergo chemical changes, such as decomposition or oxidation.


When salt dissolved in a water it disappear which property its show?

solvation


Why does salt seem to disappear when you put it in water and stir it up?

When you stir salt in water, the salt dissolves into the water at a molecular level, forming a homogenous solution. This makes it appear as if the salt has disappeared, but it has actually just spread out evenly throughout the water.


How salt gets dissolved in water?

When salt enters water, the water will cause the sodium and chloride atoms from the salt to pull apart and make the salt crystals begin to disappear. However, when the process is reversed and the water is removed by heating, the sodium and chloride atoms will begin to rejoin with each other, forming a solid matter we all know as salt.


How do you prove that the sun can be used to separate salt from salt water?

If a saline solution (dissolved salt in water) is gently heated, the water will evaporate, leaving salt crystals behind. If the water vapour is captured and condensed, the result is drinking water. The heat used can be a hot plate on an oven, or the warmth from the Sun's rays. Either way, heat will cause the water to evaporate, leaving salt behind.


Which holds more heat salt water or fresh water?

Salt water holds more heat than fresh water


What evidence does Jim have that salt and water make a solution?

Solid salt (solute) disappear in water (solvent) - a homogeneous solution is formed.


how do you seperate solid salt and water?

Heat the water and salt, the water will evaporate and the salt will remain


product of neutralisation?

Acid + Basic ----> Salt + Water + Heat


Can you reverse dissolve salt in water?

to get the salt crystals back, out the solution outside or put it ontop of a heat mat on a tripod with a Bunsen burner underneath it to heat it which will cause the water to evaporate leaving the salt behind.


What holds heat longer salt water or fresh water?

Salt Water, do to its small salt particles which not only the water holds the heat ,but the salt particles TOO!!! Most brines for heat transfer systems are very heavily salted solutions to the point where there is more salt than water [by weight] in them.
