Water molecules are polarized (one side is positive and the other is negative), which encourages the ions in salts to separate from each other.

Why is water, a non-salt substance, effective at dissolving salts?

Water is effective at dissolving salts because of its unique molecular structure that allows it to surround and break apart the ions in the salt, causing them to separate and dissolve in the water. This process is known as hydration and helps salts dissolve in water even though water itself is not a salt substance.


Water is very effective at dissolving other polar substances because of its what?

Because it is hydrophilic...."water-loving." Examples of these are sugars, salts and ions. :)


How do salts change a surface tension?

Dissolving inorganic salts in water the surface tension is increased.


Is putting bath salts into a bath dissolving or melting?

dissolving


How do you make molar seawater?

By dissolving a known amount of salts in water (for NaCl 58,44 g/L).


Why does baking soda make water turn blue?

I cannot see how. Sodium salts are normally colorless when dissolved in pure water; baking soda is basically NaHCO3, a sodium compound. Blue is normally a color from dissolving copper salts, like CuSO4. Contamination with copper ions?

What is the most effective substance for dissolving PETG?

The most effective substance for dissolving PETG is acetone.


Dissolving liver salts in water leads to a physical change?

This is a physical change because the liver salt molecules and the water molecules haven't changed - they have just intermingled.


What are the solid materials that can be completely dissolved in the liquid materials?

Solids that can be completely dissolved in liquid materials are typically in the form of soluble salts, sugars, or certain gases. Examples include table salt (sodium chloride) dissolving in water, sugar dissolving in coffee, and carbon dioxide dissolving in water to make carbonated drinks.


What is a 5 example of solubility?

Sugar dissolving in water. Salt dissolving in water. Oil not dissolving in water. Ethanol dissolving in water. Carbon dioxide dissolving in soda.


Why Ionic hydride's are also known saline hydride's?

Ionic hydrides are called salt-like as salts are ionic. They are high melting and have crystal structures typical of ionic compounds. Hydrides are not straightforward salts, salts typically dissolve in water for instance, whereas hydrides react vigorously with water rather than dissolving in it.
