Table Salt in Water

When sodium chloride dissolves in water, the positively charged sodium ions interact with the oxygen of water, and the negatively charged chlorine ions interact with the hydrogen of water.

Figure 2.15 (OpenStax, Biology 2e) caption: When we mix table salt (NaCl) in water, it forms spheres of hydration around the ions.
