When salt dissolves in water, it seems to disappear. What happens to the salt that makes it no longer visible?
A.
The salt becomes a gas that is invisible to the naked eye.
B.
Crystals of salt float to the top of the water where they cannot be seen.
C.
The particles of the salt separate from each other and become surrounded by water molecules.
D.
The particles of the salt stay close together at the bottom of the water, but they are in liquid form.

The answer is C, The particles of the salt separate from each other and become surrounded by water molecules.

the answer is C. The particles of the salt separate from each other and become surrounded by water molecules.

Explanation:

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
