No. Only PURE WATER evaporates from the ocean. It evaporates, rises into the atmosphere, and eventually cools down, condenses, and falls as rain. It may have some chemicals other than water in it, but they were picked up from the atmosphere. So, in a nutshell, only water rises from the ocean to make clouds/rain. The salt is left behind.

Why does not rain salty when the clouds are made from the ocean?
Only the water evaporates from the ocean and the salt remains. Mix up a glass of salt water and let it sit until the water evaporates and the glass will contain the same amount of salt you added to it.
What are 3 things transported by the water?
One primary thing transported by the water cycle is salt. Rain falling on the ground dissolves salt which is carried by rivers to the ocean and when the water of the ocean evaporates it leaves the salt behind, so over time the oceans become very salty.
What does rain and snow provide us with?
Fresh water. If there was no rain and snow the standing pools of water (dams, lakes etc) would slowly drain into the ocean leaving us with only salt water to drink.
Why is ocean water more dense than regular fresh water?
Ocean water has salt and other minerals, but fresh water has no salt. Fresh water also has minerals in it, but ocean water has more.
What happened to the salt ocean water during the water cycle?
when the water evaporates, the salt from the ocean water is left behind. you can try to do this by taking some fresh water and mix it up with salt
Does a hurricane rain ocean water or regular water?
It rains regular water. It is impossible to rain ocean water. While the moisture in a hurricane originates from the ocean, it leaves behind components such as salt when it evaporates.

How do modern desalinators work in removing salt from ocean water?
it removes salt water by the salt water absorbing by the sun . And the sun absorbs the water and then bring it to the clouds and make rain, the rain goes in the water and its saltwater yet again
Why do Hammerhead sharks live in the ocean and not in salt water?
the ocean is salt water because the rocks in the ocean when the water brushes over the rocks give off salt but if you are talking about justregular salt and water it is because the salt is different from the salt in the ocean which the hammerhead sharks can not adapt to it as well
Does rain water contain phosphates?
No. Salt is too heavy to evaporate. Even though some rain water is evaporated from the ocean it does not contain salt. No. When the water evaporates, it leaves the salt behind.
How will salt help Japan after this tragedy?
Wind,rain, and salt spray will help clean the air over the vast ocean.
When does sea water become fresh water?
Rivers
Why do evaporation and rain affect surface salinity of ocean water?
Because the process of evaporation leaves behind salt and rain is an result of evaporation
Why doesn't it rain salt water?
It doesn't rain salt water because the salt stays behind when water evaporates.
How does salt get into ocean water?
Water contains dissolved chemicals called "salts"
When is salt water made?
The oceans and seas have been salty for a very long time. As soon as rain began, it would rain on land and the water would dissolve salt from the earth which would run back to the sea. Then sea water would evaporate leaving the salt, and creating more rain. This process repeated itself over eons of time, making the oceans salty. Hydrothermal vents and volcanoes below the surface of the ocean also contribute salt.
