The relative proportions of ions in sea water are constant. In other words, the percentage accounted for by each ion is always the same. This implies that the oceans are chemically well-mixed and that ocean salinity varies almost entirely as a result of the addition or removal of pure water, not the addition or removal of salts.

∙ 9y agoThe principle of constant proportions state that the ratio of major salts in samples of seawater from various places is a constant. It is a law stating that every pure substance always contains the same elements combined in the same proportions.
