Answer 3

Start with the second blank first - does salt dissolve or corrode in water? Once you have that down, think about whether that’s a physical or chemical change.

Some guidance: physical changes do not alter the chemical identity of the compound while chemical changes do. After the process described, does the chemical identity of salt change or not?
