Because the crystals of the table salt are smaller and the speed of solving depend on the surface area of the material (smaller crystals mean a greatest surface area); dissolution takes place at the surface of the solid.

∙ 11y agoTable salt is made up of smaller clumps of particles than rock salt. To dissolve, particles of the salt must come in contact with the solvent particles than rock salt, resulting in faster dissolving. (Copied from the Pure Substance & Mixtures Section of some Nelson Literacy Science Text Book)

∙ 11y agoMaybe because the particle size is bigger than regular salt.
Assuming that by "salt" you mean table salt, then salt would dissolve faster in water when compared to rock salt because table salt, which is granulated, has much more surface area exposed. Since the water can only dissolve the salt that is on the surface (it can't reach into the middle of a large chunk of salt) the increased surface area results in the salt dissolving faster.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoIt is because crushed salt is smaller than rock salt and it can be easily dissolve in the water..
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYes, sea salt dissolves faster. Im not sure why but me and another kid from school decided to test this theory for a science project.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoBecause powder salt has a larger surface area than rock salt.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoBecause the crushed salt is already crushed and it became small,while the uncrushed salt is so big,so it takes a long time to be dissolve on the water

What is the first dissolve in water rock salt or table salt?
Table salt.
How much table salt do you need to make homemade crystals?
As much table salt as you can stir in the boiling water until no more salt will dissolve. You will see salt dissolve once you stir some table salt in the boiling water, hot tap water is unsufficient.
Why does table salt (NaCI) dissolve readily in water?
it is an ionic compound.
What dissolve faster in water CRYSTAL of table salt or the same amount of crushed salt?
Crushed salt will dissolve faster as it has a larger surface area providing more contact with the water.
How does Particles of table salt and table sugar differ when they dissolve in water?
Salt breaks apart into ions. Table sugar does not, the table sugar stays as a molecular compound.
What is the first dissolve in water rock salt or table salt?
Table salt.
Does rock salt dissolve in water?
Yes. Rock salt, which is largely the same as table salt, will dissolve in water.
How much table salt do you need to make homemade crystals?
As much table salt as you can stir in the boiling water until no more salt will dissolve. You will see salt dissolve once you stir some table salt in the boiling water, hot tap water is unsufficient.
What are two substances that water can dissolve?
Sugar and [table] salt.
Is table salt a solute?
Table salt or sodium chloride is indeed a solute. It will dissolve and disperse in water. In that context, water is a solvent.
Which dissolve faster granules of table salt or crushed salt?
Table salt because the particles are smaller and water can surround each particle easier to dissolve them. Granules is har to dissolve becauseit is thick than salt since it is loosen.. HOPE DIS HELPS
What allows compounds to dissolve such as table salt?
What allows compounds to dissolve such as table salt?
Property of water allows it to dissolve compounds such as table salt?
Solubility
Why does table salt (NaCI) dissolve readily in water?
it is an ionic compound.
How can table salt be separated from a mixture of table salt and talcum powder?
Talc won't dissolve in cold water whereas salt will. Filter out the talc, then evaporate the water.
Kai has 200ml of water at room temperature how much salt can she dissolve in the water refer to table?
i think 50% but the hotter the temperature is the more salt will dissolve
What dissolve faster in water CRYSTAL of table salt or the same amount of crushed salt?
Crushed salt will dissolve faster as it has a larger surface area providing more contact with the water.
