Clue : (Part 1)
• The of compound of table salt
• The type of particles of table salt
• Action of the particles between table salt and the molecule of water
Suggested answer :
• Table salt is an ionic compound which is made up of sodium ions and chloride ions.
• The positively charged Na+ ions are attracted by the partially negatively charged
oxygen atoms in water.
• While negatively charged Cl- ions are attracted by the partially positive charged
hydrogen atoms in water.
• The attraction force between the atoms of water molecules with the Na+ ions and
Cl- ions of table salt are strong enough to overcome the electrostatic force between
the ions themselves.
• Thus, table salt soluble in water.

• The of compound of naphthalene
• The type of particles of naphthalene
• Action of the particles between naphthalene and the molecule of water
Suggested answer :
• Naphthalene is a covalent compound which is made up of neutral molecules of
naphthalene.
• The neutral molecules of naphthalene does not attracts the partially negatively
