Best Answer

because of a lot of salt is in it

The dead sea has no outlet. Water flows into it but not out. The area where the dead sea is is an arid zone so rainfall is low. Water evaporates from the dead sea but because there is not much water flowing into it the dead sea becomes concentrated with mineral salts and that makes it dense.
