  2. Saline water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saline_water

    At 20 °C (68 °F) one liter of water can dissolve about 357 grams of salt, a concentration of 26.3 percent by weight (% w/w). At 100 °C (212 °F) (the boiling temperature of pure water), the amount of salt that can be dissolved in one liter of water increases to about 391 grams, a concentration of 28.1% w/w.

    Cross section showing the water table varying with surface topography as well as a perched water table Cross-section of a hillslope depicting the vadose zone, capillary fringe, water table, and the phreatic or saturated zone. (Source: United States Geological Survey.) The water table is the upper surface of the zone of saturation.

  4. Salinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salinity

    Salinity is an ecological factor of considerable importance, influencing the types of organisms that live in a body of water. As well, salinity influences the kinds of plants that will grow either in a water body, or on land fed by a water (or by a groundwater). [19] A plant adapted to saline conditions is called a halophyte.

  5. Seawater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater

    The average density at the surface is 1.025 kg/L. Seawater is denser than both fresh water and pure water (density 1.0 kg/L at 4 °C (39 °F)) because the dissolved salts increase the mass by a larger proportion than the volume. The freezing point of seawater decreases as salt concentration increases.

  6. Sodium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride

    In the technical terms of physical chemistry, the minimum freezing point of a water-salt mixture is −21.12 °C (−6.02 °F) for 23.31 wt% of salt. Freezing near this concentration is however so slow that the eutectic point of −22.4 °C (−8.3 °F) can be reached with about 25 wt% of salt.

    Salt is arguably the most important ingredient in cooking, used to season all kinds of savory dishes, to enhance baked goods and sweets, to preserve food, and to balance bitter flavors.
