1. Using a salt pan. (Digging a ditch, filling it with salt-water, and letting the water evaporate. 2. Draining salt out using a strainer. one way, is to let the salt water boil over a period of time, and the salt will be left an the bottom. put a glass cover over the top and the water will be in pesperation beads. maybe a... filter?

What are two major ways that an ocean can become saltier?
add salt
What are different ways by which salts can be prepared?
It is made by planet earth, in quarries or the ocean, it is then collected from the earth in blocks or evaporated out of the ocean where it is then ground, cleaned, ionized or a few other things depending on where the salt came from and where it is headed. It depends on which salt you have on your table as to the process it went through but all of it was made by mother earth.
2 ways of separation techniques for salt in sea water?
Distillation and reverse osmosis.
2 ways to separate a mixture of salt sand and water?
Filter the sand out, and then evaporate the water, salt is left as dried.
Were do you get salt from?
Well...I get it from a big barrel at my local supermarket. They get it from a salt company, and the salt company can get it in several ways. They can mine it like any other mineral. When they mined salt by hand, it was very dangerous work - which is why prisoners under sentence of death were usually the ones to do it. They can drill holes in a salt deposit, fill the holes with water, and continue to add water as it dissolves the salt deposit. It takes about a year to dissolve enough salt into the water to make recovering it commercially viable. After the salt water is strong enough, they pump it into a shallow pool, allow the water to evaporate, and scoop up the salt with a front end loader. Or they can build the pool close to the ocean, pump seawater into it and allow that to evaporate.
What two ways can salt be removed from salt water?
- by the evaporation of water crystallized sodium chloride is obtained - by distillation of water sodium chloride is obtained as a residual product
What are three ways earth depends on the ocean?
For the water and the salt. We can learn from the salt of the ocean. The rivers would have a dead end and be a box and over flow when it rained and would flood.
What are two ways the salinity of ocean water can increase?
Decreasing the temperature, evaporating water, or adding more salt.
How does fresh water become salt water?
Water is already water so when water goes with water it becomes water then you add salt and water and it becomes salt water so you take your salt water and take your water in the water and mix the water in the water with the salt water it becomes the water in the water with salt water

is salt necessary to treat water?
Salt is not necessary to treat water. There are many ways to treat water. Salt is not necessary because salt contains sodium. Sodium is good for treating water but is not necessary.
Why does the water in the wells have a saltish taste?
Salty water can enter a well from a couple ways. One, is from ancient salt deposits in the ground from an ancient lake or ocean. The other way, is from a nearby source of salt water such as the ocean. If wells near the ocean deplete fresh water (fresh water table) from rainfall enough, water from the ocean will begin to spoil the well. The water will begin to taste salty until it is like seawater, if pumping continues. A little salt might be okay, too much makes the water undrinkable. A third reason for salt is many generations of irrigation on the same land. A slight amount of salt and other minerals in irrigation water might start to build up salt in the soil. Some scientists think that after several hundred years some farmland thus may turn to desert, and that this has already happened in many places.
By how much is the salinity in the ocean increasing and how is this known?
The seas gain salt in a number of ways, the rivers taking dissolved salt from the rocks down to the sea, where it as to stay as no water runs out of the sea, and as the water in the oceans evaporates the salt is left behind and the ocean making the ocean saltier still, however this happens at an extremely slow rate and is like adding a few grains of salt to a pint of water every 100 years. The seas are around 3% salty although this has been known to go as high as 3.08% to as low as 2.91% due to other factors. The sea will get saltier over time however there are also ways in which salt is removed from the oceans. All creatures need salt to live and they remove salt from the ocean this way, and when they die their bodies get locked up in the sedimentary rocks. Also the sea water reacts with sea rocks leaving behind salt this way. Finally the massive plates that float on the Earth's mantle are constantly moving, when an ocean plate collides with a less dense continental plate then the continental plate will float over the top and the ocean plate will lose a large amount of its minerals deep into the earths crust. Over recent years the salt in the sea has risen by a tiny fraction of a percentage every year, however scientists believe that this will slowly even its self out over hundreds and thousands of years.
How does the ocean's salinity remain the same always?
The ocean's salinity remains the same because of all of the salt spray. It is always spitting out salt from the ocean. Also the sea life uses the salt in various ways. Another reason is that rocks take salt from the ocean as they form over time.
What are some ways that salt water can be used to create fresh water for human use?
Salt water can be distilled, either by boiling it, or by evaporation in sunlight.
What are three ways that density of ocean can increase?
here are 3 ways... 1) temperature going down 2) the salinity of the water 3) ice blocks...
