Best Answer

The two compounds that make up salt water are salt and water. The elements that make up salt are sodium and chlorine. Together, they look like this: NaCl. The two elements that make up water are hydrogen and oxygen, and when those two are together, they look like this: H2O. When the two compounds are put together to make salt water, they look like this: NaClH2O, or you could put a space between the Cl and the H to make it look like NaCl H20. On the Periodic Table of elements, the first letter of every element is capitalized, and each element usually has 2-3 letters.

Hope that helped! :)
