oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L ) This means that every kilogram (roughly one litre by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams (1.2 oz) of dissolved salts dominantly sodium chloride.

How much sodium chloride and other salts are dissolved in a water sample is the water's?
im asking you
What kinds of minerals contained in salt water?
Ocean water contains dissolved salt and solids. It contains sodium Chloride, other salts, and minerals. It also contains dissolved gases such as Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Carbon dioxide. If you are wondering how the ocean contains salt, it is because there's salt in rocks. Salt in rocks get washed in by rains and rivers. Also if you are wondering how the gases get into the ocean, it is because of the waves, and animals in the ocean. Animals add carbon dioxide, and plants add oxygen. I hope this helped. Have a great day
Which type of water is denser fresh water or salt water?
Water that contains dissolved salts is more dense than pure water; consequently, seawater is denser or has more mass per unit volume than freshwater. Temperature, however, is one of the most important factors controlling density in the ocean.
What is the effect of NaCl and CaCl2 on the boiling point of water?
The water with solved ions has greater boiling point. The dissolved salts increase the boiling point of water.
What is dissolve oxygen?
Dissolved oxygen is the current amount of oxygen in the water. A certain amount of Dissolved Oxygen Is needed to keep the fish alive, if any of the dissolved oxygen decreases by either a little or a lot it can cause changes in the water, normally if the dissolved oxygen decreases so do the fish and aquatics life's life.

Is ocean water hypotonic or hypertonic?
Hypertonic. The concentration of dissolved salts is higher in ocean water than in human cells.

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
Ocean water is more dense than fresh water due to which content?
Ocean water has many more various salts and minerals dissolved in it.
