It's call saturation point ;)

The point when salt stops dissolving in water is called saturation. At this point, the water has reached its maximum capacity to dissolve the salt, and any additional salt added will not dissolve and instead will settle at the bottom.
Sugar turns water into gatorade. Salt can be used to raise the boiling point or lower the freezing point of water.
Dissolving any salt into water will raise the boiling point.
Dissolving salt in fresh water.
Dissolving salt in water increases the boiling point of water. This is because the salt disrupts the hydrogen bonds between water molecules, making it more difficult for them to escape as vapor. As a result, more heat is needed to raise the temperature of the solution to its boiling point.
Dissolving salt in water is a physical change because the salt molecules stay intact and only disperse in the water, without undergoing a chemical reaction.
