It's all in the name; salt water has salt and fresh water has no salt. The reason why some water is salty and some is not is not as simple. Usually, either there was salt in the floor of the ocean and it got mixed in or when rivers carry little particles of something in them, sometimes it's salt from the sides and bottom of the river. The water has the salt mixed in and eventually that water becomes part of the ocean.
