Definition that contains sodium chloride
- salt white crystalline form of especially sodium chloride used to season and preserve food
- saline an isotonic solution of sodium chloride and distilled water
- fluorescein a yellow dye that is visible even when highly diluted; used as an absorption indicator when silver nitrate solution is added to sodium chloride in order to precipitate silver chloride (turns pink when no chloride ions are left in solution and negative fluorescein ions are then absorbed)
- low-sodium diet a diet that limits the intake of salt (sodium chloride); often used in treating hypertension or edema or certain other disorders
- salt-free diet a diet that limits the intake of salt (sodium chloride); often used in treating hypertension or edema or certain other disorders
- water softener a substance (such as sodium chloride) that lessens the hardness of water by replacing calcium and magnesium ions with sodium ions and so gives the water more efficient sudsing power
- fluoresceine a yellow dye that is visible even when highly diluted; used as an absorption indicator when silver nitrate solution is added to sodium chloride in order to precipitate silver chloride (turns pink when no chloride ions are left in solution and negative fluorescein ions are then absorbed)
- halite naturally occurring crystalline sodium chloride
- rock salt naturally occurring crystalline sodium chloride
- sodium chloride a white crystalline solid consisting mainly of sodium chloride (NaCl)
