Salt is a dietary mineral composed primarily of sodium chloride that is essential for animal life, but toxic to most land plants. Salt flavor is one of the basic tastes, and salt is the most popular food seasoning. [citation needed] Salt is also an important preservative. Salt for human consumption is produced in different forms unrefined salt (such as sea salt), refined salt (table salt), and iodized salt. It is a crystalline solid, white, pale pink or light gray in color, normally obtained from sea water or rock deposits. Edible rock salts may be slightly grayish in color due to this mineral content. Chloride and sodium ions, the two major components of salt, are necessary for the survival of all known living creatures, including humans. Salt is involved in regulating the water content (fluid balance) of the body. Salt cravings may be caused by trace mineral deficiencies as well as by a deficiency of sodium chloride itself. Conversely, over consumption of salt increases the risk of health problems, including high blood pressure. Human beings have enjoyed canning and artificial refrigeration for a couple of centuries; in the millennia before then, salt provided the best-known preservative of food, especially meat.[1]

8. Easy Crystal Experiments You Can Share With Your Kids
August 30, 2008
Crystals are formed with atoms line up in patterns when the substance solidifies (or the liquid evaporates and leaves the rest behind). There are crystals everywhere – in the form of salt, sugar, sand, diamonds, quartz, and many, many more. But how do the atoms know how and when to line up (in a crystalline structure)? Let’s take a closer look at atoms while teaching homeschool science: Suppose we have a drop of water. If we look at it very closely, we’ll see a drop of water, nice and smooth.
