Answer:
When common salt is added to water, it vanishes. The reason being that water molecules have voids or inter molecular spaces in which the salt particles get dissolved. The solution so formed is called brine solution.

Answer:
Water molecules pull the sodium and chloride ions apart, breaking the ionic bond that held them together. After thesalt compounds are pulled apart, the sodium and chloride atoms are surrounded by water molecules, as this diagram shows. Once this happens, thesalt is dissolved, resulting in a homogeneous solution.
