a. Adding salt to water makes it more dense.
b. Adding salt to water makes it less dense.
c. Adding salt to water decreases its temperature.
d. Adding salt to water increases its temperature

Answer :

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Adding salt to water causes its density to increase. Denser water will sink below less dense water.

As salt water is denser and will sink at the bottom and adding the salt raises the temperature of water body and hence will make it more warm and saline.
