How do oceanographers denfine salinity A. number of grams of mineral salt per liter B. number of grams of dissolved sulfur salt per kilogram of water C. number of milligrams of dissolved sodium chloride per milliliter of water D. number of grams of salt per kilogram of water

Respuesta :

 Ocean salinity is generally defined as the salt concentration (e.g., Sodium and Chlorure) in sea water. It is measured in unit of PSU (Practical Salinity Unit), which is a unit based on the properties of sea water conductivity. It is equivalent to per thousand or (o/00) or to g/kg.
Your answer is D. number of grams of salt per kilogram of water.

Oceanographers define salinity by the number of grams of salt per kilogram of water. Salinity is describing how much salt is in that amount of water. It depends on how much salt that is in the ocean in certain areas. If there is a very sunny place it may evaporate a lot of water and leave a lot of salt behind so the water has a more salinity.
