Any two ions held together make up salt. In fact 'salt' a simple name for ANY ionic compound.

Most likely you were referring to 'table salt' or what is commonly referred to as just salt.

Table salt is sodium chloride (NaCl) which is an ionic solid (and therefore is one of the many salts).

The two ions in it are Na+ and Cl- .

The two most common ions found in ocean water are --?

Sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-) ions are the two most common ions found in ocean water. Sodium and chloride combine to form salt, which gives seawater its characteristic taste and salinity.


What are the two most common ions found in ocean water are?

Ocean water is a complex mixture of substances, the two most common being water, of course, and common salt (sodium chloride). Waer is a covalent substance and only splits into ions to a very small degree. Sodium chloride, however, is an ionic substance and splits into two ions, sodium ions (Na+) and choride ions (Cl-). So these two iions are the most common.The first is Chloride, and the second is Sodium.
