Dissolved salt is often not visible in the same way that solid salt is. When salt dissolves in water, it breaks down into its individual sodium and chloride ions. This process produces a clear solution, which means that you won’t see the salt particles floating around. Instead, the water may appear unchanged, although it may taste salty.
In some instances, depending on the concentration of salt in the water, you might observe a slight cloudiness or a change in color, but generally, at lower concentrations, the solution remains clear.
It’s important to note that the visual change is not in the appearance of the dissolved salt itself, but rather in the properties of the water. The salt is completely integrated into the liquid, and the individual ions are too small to be seen by the naked eye.
