As far as I know, obviously not!
Add the salt to the water before you add the potatoes. If you are boiling potatoes with the intention of mashing them, don't add salt at all.
just add salt to fresh water
Adding salt to vegetables creates a hypertonic environment, drawing water out of the vegetable cells through the process of osmosis. As water moves out of the cells, the vegetables lose their turgidity and become wilted or softened.
Particles do make objects denser than they normally may be. For example, if you add particles of salt to water, the water will become more dense. Alternately, if you filter impurities out of water it will become less dense.
Adding fresh water to elodea in salt water would cause the elodea cells to absorb more water by osmosis. This would lead to an increase in turgor pressure within the cells, causing them to become firm and potentially burst due to the difference in salt concentration between the cell and the surrounding salt water.
Depending on how much salt you add to the water and how warm the water is... the salt will disolve
If you add the same quantity of an acid and a base it will become neutral.i.e forms salt and water
A hydrated salt is a compound that includes some water molecules when it crystallises. For example: Copper(II)sulfate can take 5 moles of water per mole of the salt on crystallization, Sodium acetate can add 3 and Calcium chloride up to 6. Normally on heating these hydrated salts can release the water (in steps) until all the water evaporated. The now anhydrous salts (without water) can re-attract water molecules for which they are used as drying agents (commonly used in laboratories are Sodium sulfate, Calcium chloride or Magnesium sulfate to dry organic solvent phases)
An apple can actually float in water that is not treated with salt. Adding salt will encourage the apple to float to the top. When you add salt to water, it allows the water to become more dense.

just add salt to it
the salt will disolve
Salt will draw out water from the cells of a plant or tree causing the cells to be dry and die. Enough salt in the right places can kill a tree.
salt doesn't change the temperature of water, it changes the freezing point. salt lowers the freezing point of water so that it will become ice at a lower temperature, therefor melt at a lower temperature which is why salt is put on the roads when it is icy
You don't ADD salt
salt helps to bring the water to the boil faster.
Add salt
