The specific heat capacity of water is about 4.18kJ/kg*K while the specific heat of seawater is about 3.95kJ/kg*K
Specific heat capacity is a measure of heat required to increase temperature of something by Celsius or Kelvin.
Since water's heat capacity is great than that of seawater, then it takes more heat to bring its temperature up

What are the differences between salt water and fresh water?
the difference between salt water and fresh water is that salt water is from the ocean and fresh water is water that hasn't gotten to the ocean and so the water is clean, And you can only drink fresh water not salt water
Does salt water evaporate faster then sugar water?
yes
How does fresh water become salt water?
Water is already water so when water goes with water it becomes water then you add salt and water and it becomes salt water so you take your salt water and take your water in the water and mix the water in the water with the salt water it becomes the water in the water with salt water
Does salt water freeze faster than fresh water?
Salt freezes slower (i.e. at a lower temperature) than fresh water. Generally the greater the level of dissolved substances, the harder it is for ice crystals to form, so the greater the level of cooling required. Completely saturated saltwater freezes at -6°F / -21.1° C. == ==
How could you get back the dissolved salt?
Evaporate the liquid, possibly by heating it.
Why does salt water evaporate slower than regular water?
salt water evaporates slower than regular water because the salt makes it harder to boil and evaporate
Does salt salt slow down evaporation?
Salt will slow freezing, but not evaporation. As say salt water evaporates, it will leave behind its salt contents, but it will not evaporate any slower than fresh water.
Does salt water freeze faster or slower than fresh water?
Salt water is slower.
Which water evapourates faster tapsalt and fresh?
It is thought that the water that evaporates the fastest is fresh, with tap and saltwater right behind it. The salt is seen as a barrier to quick evaporation, which is why it is considered slower to evaporate.
Do water evaporate faster or slower with salt in it?
Pure water is evaporated faster.
What water evaporates fastest salt or fresh?
SALT will evaporate the fastes
Will water with salt evaporate faster than water with out salt?
No, it will evaporate slower. When salt or another nonvolatile solute is added to water it raises the boiling point, making it more difficult to evaporate.
Will fresh water or salt evaporate faster?
At the same temperature fresh water evaporates faster.
Will salt fresh or tap water evaporate the quickest?
tap water will evaporate the fastest. I know this because i did the experiment for school.
How does salt water evaporate and become fresh water?
because since salt is a solid, only the water will evaporate, leaving the salt behind.
How do you remove salt from salt water?
Evaporate the water by exposure to the sun and wind or in a cook pot.
What evaporates the fastest salt tap or fresh water?
tap water will evaporate the fastest
