Seawater Composition Diagram

This diagram visually breaks down the typical composition of seawater, illustrating the proportions of its main constituents. It clearly shows that water makes up the vast majority at 96.5%, or 965 grams. The remaining 3.5% consists of various dissolved solids, primarily highlighting sodium (Natrium) and chloride (Chlorid) as the most abundant ions, accounting for 30.6% (10.7 g) and 55% (19.25 g) respectively of the dissolved salts. The smaller colored sections represent other dissolved minerals and elements found in trace amounts.
