In the Figure Shown, Is a Chemical Reaction Occurring

In the figure shown, is a chemical reaction occurring?

A) Yes, because the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are being removed from their ionic lattice as they are dissolved.
B) Yes, because the water molecules are reacting with the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions to form a gas.
C) Yes, because a precipitate will be formed when the water and NaCl are mixed.
D) No, because there is no change occurring.
E) No, because the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are simply being surrounded by the water molecules as the salt dissolves.
