yes..somewhat. It states that the ratio of major salts in samples of seawater from various places is constant. It can give you a rough answer to salinity ,but salinity varies because of elements not included in the major salts of the ocean. If there were no other factors then it would be able to tell you the salinity.
The principle of constant proportions states that a compound will always contain the same elements in the same proportion by mass regardless of the source or method of preparation. In the context of determining salinity in seawater, it means that the ratio of the major ions (like chloride, sodium, and magnesium) will always remain constant regardless of the water sample's origin. This principle allows scientists to use this consistent composition to calculate the salinity of seawater based on the known concentrations of these major ions.
The two properties that determine the density of sea water are salinity and temperature. Higher salinity and lower temperature generally result in denser sea water.
The salinity of the ocean water can vary depending on factors such as temperature and precipitation.
Salinity is a chemical property.
The high salinity of the well water made it unpotable. It is quite possible to reduce the salinity of the water.
Drink a (small) glass of seawater and you will remember salinity.
salinity can be determined by measuring the chlorinity of the sample since the chlorinity is easy to measure, and the principle of constant proportions applies to all seawater, scientist can use the following formula to determine salinity: salinity in %o=1.80655 x Chlorinity in %o
-Due to the principle of constant proportions -It can be accurately measured with a simple chemical analysis
The relative proportions of ions in sea water are constant. In other words, the percentage accounted for by each ion is always the same. This implies that the oceans are chemically well-mixed and that ocean salinity varies almost entirely as a result of the addition or removal of pure water, not the addition or removal of salts. - A.J.

it works on the principle of refraction
Yes. It's the condensation principle.

Water temperature can affect water salinity by influencing the density of water. When water temperature increases, it becomes less dense, causing it to rise and potentially mix with less saline surface waters. This can lead to changes in salinity levels in different water layers.
The Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) are the low salinity waters found in the Southern Ocean.
Run a retort to determine the ratio of water in the mud, perform chloride titrations
The temperature and salinity of seawater determine its density. Water gets denser as it gets saltier and reaches a maximum density at 4 °C. Salinity does affect the boiling point and freezing point of water, but not its temperature.
