Dissolved salts have an influence on the physical, chemical and biological properties of the solution.

An aquatic environment's water CHEMISTRY refers to the amount of dissolved salts, nutrients, and oxygen in the water. If you are in Mr. Sarau's class...nice going. haha
Salts may be soluble or insoluble in water.

Salinity of water means the amount of dissolved salts in the water (not necessarily just Sodium chloride, but all salts).Salinity is measured as Total Dissolved Salts (TDS) and in concentrations of Parts per Million (PPM) or Parts per Ten Thousand (PPT)."Normal" Sea water ranges between 35,000 and 37,500 PPM of salts, the Red Sea and Arabian Gulf in the range of 40,000 - 45,000 PPM and the Dead Sea (saltiest sea on earth) about 80,000 PPM.To put that in context normal bottled water has a TDS of between 170 - 320 PPM of dissolved salts.
Ionic salts are dissociated in ions.
