Answer:
hypersaline lake in the world
Answer:
1st Answer :
280 parts per thousand
One of the saltiest lakes in the world, the Dead Sea, has a salinity of 280 parts per thousand (ppt), about eight times saltier than average seawater (35 ppt)! The Dead Sea is located between Jordan and Israel. This area gets very little rain and is very hot.
2nd Answer :
It is 304 m (997 ft) deep, the deepest hypersaline lake in the world. With a salinity of 342 g/kg, or 34.2% (in 2011), it is one of the world's saltiest bodies of water – 9.6 times as salty as the ocean – and has a density of 1.24 kg/litre, which makes swimming similar to floating.
