I assume you mean sodium chloride salt (NaCl). In that case, you would refer to the solubility of sodium chloride in water which is 35.7 grams per 100 mL of water at 0� C. However, this amount will be increased to approximately 39 g/100mL if the water is brought to boiling. If the solution is pressurized then the water may reach temperatures far above its boiling point and conversely the amount of NaCl which can be dissolved would increase far beyond its standard pressure and temperature saturation point. Salts are an ionic compounds that more specifically dissociate in water rather than dissolve. Sodium chloride forms a sodium cation (Na+) and the chlorine anion (Cl-) when it dissociates in water.

If you add salt to water it becomes dissolved. If you keep adding salt in to the water, eventually the water won't be able to hold any more salt. When that happens it is called the saturation point.

The saturation point of salt in water is 35g / 100ml water.

A solvent is 'saturated' if it contains as much solute as possible given its current temperature. You will know that saltwater is saturated if you add a bit more salt, stir it around a bunch, and the salt does not disappear. To make it dissolve you would need to raise the temperature of the water.

Why is pure water more dense than salt water?

It's not! Pure water has a density of 1.000 g/ml. Sea water has a density of 1.025 g/ml and saturated salt water has a density of roughly 1.2 g/ml.


Saturated salt solution?

For making the density of water higher. That is because when more salt is added, at a certain point the water cannot dissolve much of salt. so on this point the density rises above its constant density i.e. 1000 kgm-3 at 4.c.

Is salt mix in water a saturated solution?

When you first mix the salt into the solution the salt will dissolve into the water. As you keep on pouring more salt into the water eventually the salt will stop dissolving and once the salt stops dissolving the solution is then saturated.


Does water have the same density as salt?

No salt has a greater density.


Salt water density?

Salt water density really depends on a few different things. The concentration of salt and temperature are the 2 largest factors in determining the density of salt water.


How much salt do you put in salt water to make it denser than fresh water?

Any amount of salt added to fresh water will increase its density as it dissolves. However, this difference will be negligible for very small amounts of salt. Seawater density is typically around 1.025 g/ml, indicating 2.5g of salts dissolved in 1kg of water. A saturated solution of Sodium Chloride in water contains approximately 360g of salt per kilogram of water, giving a density of 1.360g/ml. Solubility and density are both affected by temperature and pressure, so these figures are guidelines only.


Why must the salt stirred into the ice water?

Probably to cause the water it to be saturated without using as much salt as it would take to make room temperature water saturated.


Which one has more density water or salt water?

salt water


What has greater density plain water or salt water?

salt water


What does density tell you about salt water?

The density of a salt water solution compared against the densities of "pure" water and salt provides an approximate value of the ratio of water to salt in the mixture.


Will a solution of saturated salt and water freeze?

Yes, it will.
