Question
Which one of the following salts contributes maximum to the salinity of sea water?
Explanation
This one is a favourite in exams. In Salinity, whenever you see which one of the following salts contributes, the answer is Sodium chloride. I have seen students get it right just by remembering this one line. So do not overthink it. Learn this pair and you are good.
