Weight depends on gravity. People seem to think there is no gravity in space yet the earths gravitational pull is quite strong for quite long. Think of the moon, its pulled by earths gravity long after our atmosphere gives way to the vacuum of space. A liter of water would be the same weight in space and would only fade over long distances. As a side note space begins at like 60-70 miles above the earths surface. If you took a space ship up 120 miles (well into space) and parked it, you would promptly fall back to earth like any object dropped from a height. Lack of atmosphere implies nothing about gravity.

In space, the weight of the water would be negligible because weight is a measure of the force acting on an object due to gravity. However, the mass of the water would remain the same, which for a liter of water is about 1 kilogram.

What is heavier 1 liter of air or 1 liter of water?

Water because a liter is a measurement of space and not mass. Water occupying 1 liter of space is lots heavier than air occupying 1 liter of space. <><><><><> It depends on density. It is possible, given enough pressure, to have one liter of air weigh more than one liter of water.

What happens when saltwater and freshwater meet?

It is not clear what you are asking. Perhaps this will help. !f you take a liter of pure fresh water and weigh it, it will weigh 1000 grams (a kilogram). If you then add 10 grams of salt to the water and stir the salt until it has all dissolved and measure the volume of the now salty water, the volume of the salt water will still measure exactly one liter. However if you weigh the liter of salt water it will weigh 1010 grams. This means that there are now more particles (atoms) occupying the same space - the DENSITY of the salt water is higher than the fresh water.
