The result is that the sodium and chlorine ions______in water
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) are soluble in water
Reaction
NaCl+ water --> Na+ (aqueous)+Cl -(aqueous)+water
On addition to water the sodium section of NaCl is attracted to oxygen side of water molecules and Chlorine section of NaCl attracted to hydrogen side of water molecules.
This cause the NaCl to split and NaCl dissolve in water separating Na+ and Cl-. A hydration shell is formed around them thus preventing the Sodium and Chlorine to form ionic bond again.
