Why does the ocean have salt water?

The oceans contain salt water because salt is an abundant mineral on earth, it is dissolved in water and washed into oceans, and, because of the way the water cycle operates, precipitation continues to wash salt into the world's oceans. That salt that ends up in the sea stays there when the water evaporates. This has been happening for millions of years, and what we see today as salty ocean water has been a characteristic of earth's oceans for about as long as liquid water has been on earth.
