It is mainly because sea water contains salts which ionise. It is these ionised particles that react with metallic substances and cause corrosion.
The dolphin is 52 million times greater than seawater
Because gold doesn't corrode or errode over time.
To calculate the salinity of seawater from chlorinity, you can use the relationship that salinity is approximately 1.805 times the chlorinity. Given a chlorinity of 19.65 per mil, the salinity would be roughly 35.4 grams per kilogram (or per mil) of seawater. Therefore, the salinity of the seawater with a chlorinity of 19.65 per mil is about 35.4 per mil.
Well black drum can live in both saltwater and freshwater. I catch drum all the time in SALTWATER fishing, but when I got home I put it in my freshwater pond and it survived. I have tried this a couple of times and they all survived so I looked it p on the internet and yes they can survive in saltwater AND freshwater.
Urine with a pH of 6 is 100 times more acidic than seawater with a pH of 8. This is because the pH scale is logarithmic, with each unit change representing a tenfold difference in acidity or alkalinity.

Yes, the process of evaporating steam from seawater is reversible. When seawater is heated, it turns into steam through evaporation, which can then condense back into liquid water when cooled. This phase change is part of the water cycle and can be repeated multiple times. However, the dissolved salts and impurities in seawater do not evaporate with the water, so the condensed water would be fresh, while the remaining seawater would be saltier.
Four Times Faster
The concentration of fluorine in the chitin of krill can be significantly greater than that in seawater, often reported to be several times higher. While specific values can vary based on environmental factors, studies have indicated that the concentration of fluorine in krill can be tens to hundreds of times greater than in seawater. This bioaccumulation is likely due to the krill's feeding habits and the chemical properties of fluorine. However, for precise figures, specific studies should be consulted.
Sound travels about 15 times faster in steel compared to air.
The combination of moisture, oxygen and salt, especially sodium chloride, damages metal worse than rust does. This combination corrodes, or eats away at, the metal, weakening it and causing it to fall apart. Saltwater corrodes metal five times faster than fresh water does and the salty, humid ocean air causes metal to corrode 10 times faster than air with normal humidity. Bacteria in ocean water also consumes iron and their excretions turn to rust.
