The salt is the solute and the water is the solvent. Water is the solvent because it is what dissolves the solid salt into the solution. The water molecules pull apart the crystal structure of salt and surround the salt ions.
Salt and water is a mixture. In a mixture you can mix them together then take them apart. When you put salt in water the salt does not dissolve therefore it is a mixture. If salt dissolved in water it would then be a solution,but salt does not dissolve in water so it is a mixture.Salt does dissolve in water to form a solution, which is a mixture. If a chemical that was insoluble in water was added to water, a mixture would also be formed. Slaf can be separated from water by evaporation and crystallisation, the undissolved chemical by filtration.
The ratio of salt water to fresh water on the Earth is approximately 40 to 1. The oceans are comprised of salt water.
Yes as a mater of fact that is what salt water pool normally is. With a salt water pool there is a electronic salt water chlorinator installed that uses the salt in the water to create chlorine. However if you don't have a salt water chlorinator and prefer the feeling of a salt water pool then there is no reason not to add salt to the pool as well as keeping up the chlorine yourself.
When making a solution of salt in water, water is the solvent and salt is the solute. Surf the link over to Wikipedia for details.
Yes, there is salt water intrusion in the Tampa Bay Area. The salt water intrusion is from droughts.
Salt water is corrosive.
I don't think so.

An estuary.
It is the intrusion of salt in denser bot porous rocks.
You think probable to the movement of salt waters into fresh waters.
The mass of the salt and water are uneffected. If you started with 5g of both water and salt, you'll end with 5g of both.
Saltwater intrusion is the movement of ocean water into fresh groundwater that causes contamination of the freshwater by salt. This is a process of nature and usually occurs near the coastlines where the fresh groundwater level approaches the same level as the sea.
It's a major threat to south Florida because it is surrounded by salty sea. Estuaries and bays let salt water in, making the fresh water that is in the lakes and streams and often the water table undrinkable
This is an example of geological vertical intrusion.
If you keep adding salt to the same amount of water you started with you will notice that the water will keep rising and soon the will be a pile of salt at the bottom of the cup.
