Most metals are not in any economic concentrations in seawater. The only exceptions are sodium and magnesium. A company did start up trying to extract lithium from seawater but it went bust but the technology will certainly be looked at again when lithium is needed in large amounts for making batteries. Bioengineering technology may be used in the future to get bacteria and algae to concentrate metals from seawater.
What else can I help you with?
What metal is found in the ground?
Yes, metals are usually obtained from ores in the ground. But a few metals may be found in their 'native' state. Silver, platinum, tin, and even iron (rarely). And magnesium is comonly refined from sea water. BUT some iron - nickel meteorites do descend from the sky - but probably were part of a previous planet.
What is the source of chlorine?
The source of chlorine is primarily derived from salt deposits found in the earth's crust. It is extracted through a process called electrolysis, where an electric current is passed through a solution of sodium chloride (salt water) to separate the chlorine from the sodium.
What is the freezing point of sea water and pure water?
the sea water contains more salt. the pure water do not contain salt. the density of sea water is more than density of pure water. as there is more salt in sea water it is corrosive against the metals like aluminium. the pure water is not corrosive in nature. sea water is harmful for drinking. pure water is good for drinking.
What is the name of the solvent in sea water?
The solvent in sea water is water itself. Water acts as the solvent that dissolves various salts and minerals in the ocean, creating the salty composition of sea water.
What is percentage of water in sea water?
The percentage of salt in the sea is 3.5%
Where can salt be extracted?

How is salt produced and extracted?

Where can you get sea salt?

Can drinking water be extracted from sea water or salty ground water?
both.
Can Gold be extracted from sea water?
yes yes yes
How did salt get here?
Salt is extracted from mines or sea water.
In salt water the salt is the what?
This salt is sodium chloride (NaCl); the salt can be extracted from the sea water, refined and used in industry or as food additive. From tha Dead Sea other salts can be extracted.
Where is salt located in?
Salt (NaCl) is extracted from mines or sea water.
How do seas get salt?
Salt is extracted from sea waters by evaporation of water.
Which landform do you get salt?
Sodium chloride is extracted from mines or sea water.
How is salt extracted from seamines?
Salt can be extracted from sea waters (not mines); after evaporation of water salt remain as a crystallized solid.
