Answer:
Explanation:
Common salt also called as table salt, a compound that contains the molecules of sodium and chloride. Thus, the common salt is known as sodium chloride (NaCl).
The main ingredient of common salt is sodium chloride, that generally has MgCl2 along with it. MgCl2 is a highly hygroscopic compound, and as a result in presence of MgCl2, the normal salt also becomes hygroscopic and deliquescent.
The common salt containing impurities of magnesium chloride (MgCl2) is called the sea salt. The raw form of common salt is obtained from sea. Since, it is not a purified form, thus the sea salt naturally contains higher amounts of magnesium chloride.
