True, salt is a solute in seawater. In seawater, the primary solute is sodium chloride (table salt), which dissolves in water, contributing to the overall salinity of the ocean. Other minerals and compounds also act as solutes, but salt is the most significant.
Yes, salt dissolves in seawater, so it is a solute.
False. When seawater is heated until all the water evaporates, salt crystals are left behind, not table salt. Table salt is a refined form of salt that is typically extracted from underground salt deposits or sea salt that has been processed to remove impurities.
true
False. Unsaturated solutions have not reached their maximum solute concentration and can dissolve more solute.
False. The average salinity of seawater is actually around 3.5%, not 35%.
true
False, there is probably already salt in it.
true
Yes, it is true - approx. 35 g/L.
Yes, it is true - approx. 35 g/L.
false
False. It is homogeneous
