What are salt water ingredients?
Most people think of "salt" in terms of table salt, in that case the components are Sodium (Na) and Chloride (Cl) The formula unit of sodium chloride is NaCl.Table salt contain also iodine as potassium/sodium iodate or iodide and an anticaking compound.However "salt" is a general term for compounds made up of a metal (or other cation) replacing one or all of the hydrogens in an acid.

What is the different between quantitative and qualitative measures?
If I had a 25% solution of sodium chloride and I did a quantitative measurement, the interest would be in HOW MUCH was present. In this case it would be 25%. If I did a qualitative measurement, all we would be interested in is - WHAT IS PRESENT. In this case sodium chloride and water. In simple terms, qualitative is "What is present" and quantitative is "How much is present"
