What is the name of the process that occurs after salt crystals have dissolved in water?
As salts dissolve in water they ionise(Na Cl salt splits into Na+ ions and Cl- ions).Hot water would dissolve a given mass of salt more quickly than a similar amount of cold water and usually more salt would dissolve in hot water than in cold water.If the beaker is not stirred the colour would be seen to spread slowly throughout the water by a process called ‘diffusion’.
