According to the Wikipedia article on "Seawater": "Average density at the surface is 1.025 g/ml...", so that would be about 2.5% more than normal water, which has a density ver close to 1.

If freshwater and seawater meet at the mouth of a river which one sinks and why?

Seawater is more dense than freshwater. Therefore the seawater would sink lower than the freshwater. Ships do indeed stay higher in seawater because of the higher density or specific gravity of seawater over freshwater


Does salt content of water affect the density of seawater?

the salt makes seawater denser than freshwater. more salt increases the density

Why sea water has a higher hydrometer reading than that of freshwater?

Seawater dissolves more than fresh water because of the salinity in the water.

How much does 1 liter of salt water weigh in kg?

The density of seawater varies from 1020 to 1029 kg/cubic meter, with 1027 kg/cubic meter being cited most often for water at the ocean's surface. There are 1,000 liters per cubic meter, so the density of seawater can also be expressed as 1.027 kg/liter (for surface seawater). Thus 1 liter of seawater will weigh 1.027 kg.


Is seawater a better conductor of electrcity than water from a freshwater lake?

Yes as it contains more ions in solution.


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.


Does a liter of soda weigh a little more than two pounds?
