Answer 1

Salt crystals are shaped like cubes. Salt is part of the isometric crystal system. 

Answer 2

Answer: Salt crystals are a part of isometric crystal system.

Explanation: There are in total 7 crystal systems:

1. Triclinic
2. Monoclinic
3. Orthorhombic
4. Tetragonal
5. Hexagonal
6. Trigonal
7. Cubic

Salt has a molecular formula of NaCl which crystallizes in face-centered cubic system and this system comes under cubic crystal system.

Another name for cubic crystal system is isometric crystal system because in this system all the sides and angles are equal.
