Question

why is sea water salty?​

Answer 1

Rainwater seeps through large rocks, it mixes with some of the minerals from the rocks, a process that is called weathering.

This water, which has taken in some of the salty substances of the rocks, then flows through rivers, making the water in the ocean salty.

Answer 2

Ello user !!!!!!!!

Here is your answer,

=========================================

Salt in the ocean comes from rocks on land.

After years and years of river inflow and evaporation, the salt content of the lake water built up to the present levels.

The same process made the seas salty.

Rivers carry dissolved salts to the ocean.

Water evaporates from the oceans to fall again as rain and to feed the rivers, but the salts remain in the ocean.
