Question

5) A: Sodium chloride and potassium are parts of
inorganic oceanic resources.
R: Salt extraction is a major activity in coastal
areas.
1) Only A is correct
2) Only R is correct
3) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct
explanation of A.
4) Both A and R are correct but R is not the
correct explanation of A​

Answer 1

Both A and R are correct and R is the correct

explanation of A

Answer 2

Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

• Sodium chloride and Potassium are the inorganic compounds obtained from Oceans.

• Sodium chloride is a table salt obtained by evaporating seawater.

• Salt extraction is a major activity in coastal areas because sodium chloride and Potassium salts are abundantly dissolved in seawater.

• Oceans contain a large number of sodium salts when compared to Potassium salts.

• Seawater consists of different types of minerals that's why seawater is salty.
