Question
this image is a close - up of sea salt. which word best describes how sea salt forms from liquid ocean water?
a melting
b filtration
c dissolving
d crystallization
When liquid ocean water evaporates, the dissolved salts (including sea salt) come out of solution and form crystals. This process is called crystallization. Melting is the change from solid to liquid. Filtration is a method to separate solids from liquids (not relevant here). Dissolving is the process of a solute going into a solvent (opposite of what's happening for sea - salt formation from ocean water).
