The answer to this question depends a bit on which posture you take. You see, ordinary tap water usually contains small amounts of salts, like sodium chloride (table salt) and sodium carbonate, and a bit of chlorine. All of these substances, and in fact the water itself, can be toxic if consumed in excessive quantities. Now that's one posture. However, as most people don't tend to consume ten gallons of water or a whole pool's worth of chlorine in a couple of minutes, we can assume a second posture in which we should only consider substances which are toxic even in small amounts. These are most often metals, like Mercury, lead or arsenic; or wastes, like feces or even industrial waste. However, substances like these aren't usually found in filtered tap water, so not all water is toxic. Therefore, the answer to your question can be yes, according to the first posture; or no, according to the second posture.
The solvent in seawater is the salt because it's doing he dissolving.
The average salinity of seawater is about 3.5%, which means that approximately 35 grams of salt are dissolved in 1,000 grams of seawater. This salinity can vary slightly depending on location and other factors.
The most negatively charged ion dissolved in seawater is chloride. In fact, Cl- makes up 55 percent of the seawater's salinity.
Sodium chloride is the most important salt in the seawater.
To be a true solution seawater must be filtered.
When seawater is decomposed, toxic chlorine gas can be produced. This can happen when an electric current is passed through seawater during the process of electrolysis. It is important to handle and dispose of chlorine gas safely due to its toxic properties.
Seawater is water with salt in it
Temperature and salinity are the two main factors that influence the density of seawater. Colder seawater is denser than warmer seawater, while seawater with higher salinity is denser than seawater with lower salinity.

A seawater fish is a fish that lives in the sea.
Yes, salt is a solute in seawater. Water is the solvent, salt is one of the solutes, and the solution is seawater.
A density current forms when more dense seawater moves toward less dense seawater.
A density current forms when more dense seawater moves toward less dense seawater.
A density current forms when more dense seawater moves toward less dense seawater.
It is more common to see seawater as one word. Though either seawater or sea water can be used.
