Impure salt
I really can't see what to do with this except bring it here. I can see no encyclopedic potential for this article. Physchim62 07:54, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Salt with the exception of the Bible bit. I don't think that's important enough for mention in the chemistry-related article. -Tadanisakari 08:00, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, salt is defined as an ionic compound with a crystalline structure. It's impossible for salt to lose it's saltiness as the article states. Impure salt should refer to salts which contain foreign ions that shouldn't be there, but I think impurities is more of a thing to discuss in contamination. - Mgm|(talk) 08:33, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete: Agree that "salt" is a basic structure. It cannot be impure by itself and be a salt.  There are salts (compound nouns) that can be impure by having impurities in the mineral that is to be salted, but they're still salts. Geogre 14:48, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
