Saltwater dehydrates you because it has a higher concentration of salt than the human body. When you drink saltwater, the excess salt draws water out of your cells through osmosis, leading to dehydration. In contrast, regular water helps to hydrate your body by replenishing lost fluids without causing this imbalance.
Saltwater is denser than regular water because the addition of salt molecules increases the mass of the water, making it heavier. This increased mass results in a higher density of saltwater compared to freshwater.
In a saltwater solution, salt (sodium chloride) is the solute and water is the solvent. The salt dissolves in the water to form the saltwater solution.
An egg sinks in regular water because it is more dense than water. When salt is added to water, it increases the water's density, making the egg less dense than the saltwater and causing it to float.
Yes, saltwater is a solution where salt (sodium chloride) is dissolved in water. Freshwater does not contain salt.
Saltwater freezes slower than sugar water because the salt in saltwater lowers the freezing point of the water, requiring it to be at a colder temperature to freeze. Sugar does not have the same effect on the freezing point of water.
Plants typically grow better in sugar water rather than saltwater. Sugar water provides plants with carbohydrates they can use for energy, while saltwater can dehydrate and damage plant cells due to its high salt concentration. Saltwater also interferes with the plant's ability to absorb nutrients and water from the soil.

Yes. When you put salty water in your stomach, osmotic pressure begins drawing water out of your body to try to dilute the salt in your stomach. Eventually, you dehydrate and die.
Yes salt water can kill vines and other types of plants. To kill a vine with salt water, feed the vine with saltwater instead of regular water.
The word you are looking for is "dehydrate."
If you ever run into a situation where you don't have anymore clean water to drink, there are ways to sanitize your own water for drinking like boiling it. You should find a stream or body of water around where you are, but avoid saltwater, because it will only dehydrate you more.

You dehydrate.
Approximately 97% of Earth's water is saltwater found in oceans and seas.
If you don't drink enough water you will dehydrate and get headaches. If you don't drink enough water you will dehydrate and get headaches.
