A molecule of salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) consists of one sodium ion (Na⁺) and one chloride ion (Cl⁻) held together by ionic bonds, forming an organized crystalline structure. In contrast, a water molecule (H₂O) consists of two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to one oxygen atom, creating a bent molecular shape. The interactions in salt are primarily ionic, while water's properties are largely due to hydrogen bonding. This difference in structure and bonding leads to distinct physical and chemical properties for each substance.
The main difference between marine and freshwater ecosystems is the salt concentration in the water. Marine ecosystems have high salt concentrations, whereas freshwater ecosystems have low salt concentrations. This difference in salinity influences the types of organisms that can thrive in each ecosystem.
There are a few different ways that you can test the difference between water, salt water, and sugar water. You can test boiling point for example.
Cereal is a food made from grains that can be eaten as breakfast with milk or yogurt. Salt water is water that contains a significant amount of dissolved salt. They are different in composition, taste, and purpose.
no, it's a mixture. Salt is a pure substance, as is water, but together they are a mixture.
Because marine fish live in salt water because there found in the ocean.
it has way more particles in it salt water does not water with salt
it has salt in it and flat water is fresh
Salt in the water. Salt water.
The same
oceans have salt water
Yes. Solid salt does not conduct electricity, but salt water does.
definitly salt
Rain water is fresh water and does not have salt. Saltwater is not fresh and does have salt.
Salt water is denser than fresh water. Thus, it is easier to float in salt water.
saltwater has salt in it, freshwater does not.
the difference between salt water and fresh water is that salt water is from the ocean and fresh water is water that hasn't gotten to the ocean and so the water is clean, And you can only drink fresh water not salt water
salt water has more mass because of the added salt so salt is heavier :)
