Answer:
Sea water contains more dissolved salts than the drinking water. Therefore, it is more conducting than the drinking water. Due to this reason, the compass needle deflects more in seawater than in the drinking water.

Answer:
The amount of dissolved salts present in the seawater is more than that of the drinking water. So, the sea water will be a better conductor than the drinking water. That is the reason behind the increased deflection of the needle in the seawater when compared with the drinking water.
