Solution

The correct option is C

Salt has dissolved.


Salt dissolves in water. When salt dissolves it leaves water transparent and colourless. In this process, salt and water turn into a homogeneous mixture in which salt particles are evenly distributed throughout the solution. The salt particles exist in their smallest possible form.
