Although the question is very badly written and hence not easy to work out the meaning of, I assume the peculiarity referred to is that seawater and hard waters are similar. If so, there is no peculiarity at all; it is what we expect. Both contain higher than normal levels of dissolved salts, so there salinity is roughly the same. In the case of seawater, it is sodium chloride for the most part, but for hard water it is normally calcium salts.
