'''Seawater''' is [[water]] from a sea or ocean. On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L). This means that every kilogram (roughly one liter by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams (1.2 oz) of dissolved salts, predominantly [[sodium]] and [[chloride]] ions.
