In chemistry salt water is considered a mixture of the two different compounds salt and water.
Salt water is NOT an element. Water isn't even an element. Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O) that have bonded together. Salt, or sodium chloride isn't an element either, it is composed a ratio of one sodium ion to every one chlorine ion (NaCl).

Periodic Table elements? No
Water is a molecule made up of two elements in chemical combination.
Salt is an ionic compound made up of a metal cation (+) and a non-metal anion (-)

Does the element Calcium react with water?
Technically salt does not react with water. It will dissolve in water which is not the same thing as causing a chemical reaction. Calcium by itself does not react with salt water -- it is dissolved into the water and is a crucial element of life for many salt-water species. Some compounds containing calcium may react with (or in) salt water.
Which is an element salt carbon water or carbon dioxide?
carbon
Is salt water oxyge n or air an element?
Oxygen is an element - the other two are compounds.
Is salt water an element compound or mixture?
Salt water is a mixture: the individual components (salt, water and minerals) can be easily separated by evaporation.Salt and water themselves are compounds; they are composed of the elements sodium and chlorine (salt), and hydrogen and oxygen (water).

What type of element is salt water?
Nothing about salt water is an element. Water is the compound H2O (2 Hydrogens bonded with an Oxygen). Salt is the compound NaCl (Sodium and Chlorine bonded). Together they form a solution with the water dissolving the salt.
