There are many chemical compounds in our environment which are very important for our daily lifestyle.

Similarly,the rock salt which is also known as the kitchen salt is very important for our cooking procedures.

The chemical formula of the rock salt is NaCl.Which means that it is made out of sodium and chlorine.

Sodium has a off-white colour and chlorine is almost colourless.

That's why the mixture of these two chemical elements or the NaCl is also white in colour.
