PLEASE NEED HELP ASAP!! THANK YOU
Anna filled completely four identical cups with different liquids. Three of the cups were filled with freshwater from different locations on land and one cup was filled with ocean water. The liquid in the four cups was boiled completely. The table below shows the mass of salt obtained on boiling the liquids completely.

Cup Mass of salt (in gram)
1 25
2 18
3 35
4 29
Into which of these cups did Anna most likely fill ocean water?

Cup 1
Cup 2
Cup 3
Cup 4

cup 4 because ocean water has more salt in it than fresh water

Anna filled completely four identical cups with different liquids. Three of the cups were filled with fresh water from different locations on land and one cup was filled with ocean water. The liquid in the four cups was boiled completely. By looking at this table, we can conclude that Cup 3 has the highest salt content among all the other cups and it was obtained from ocean water.

What is the difference between fresh water and ocean water?

  • Freshwater is drinkable water that contains a low concentration of salt, minerals, and other dissolved salts.
  • Ocean water contains a high amount of salt concentration and it is not fit for drinking.
  • Freshwater is obtained from dams, reservoirs, ice caps, and glaciers whereas salt water is obtained from seas and oceans.
  • Freshwater is higher in density when compared with ocean water.
  • The freezing point of fresh water is 0 degrees whereas the freezing point of ocean water is -2 degrees.

Hence, cup 3 containing 35 g of salt is the right answer.
