Question

Q1 Give reasons for the following statements. Salt does not evaporate while evaporating water from mixture of salt solution.

Answer 1

Salt in seawater is merely dissolved in the water, not chemically bonded to it. When water evaporates (one molecule at a time), only pure water returns to the atmosphere. ... When airborne droplets of salty ocean spray evaporate, their minute loads of salt are left floating in the air.
