🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between salt content and ability of water to carry electric current • Difference between conductivity, inductance, and specific gravity • How most modern salinity cells/probes work in engine-room and tank monitoring

💭 Think About

• Which property of water changes most directly and measurably as salt content increases? • Which of the listed properties is most commonly used for continuous monitoring in piping systems and tanks aboard ships? • Think about portable salinity meters or TDS (total dissolved solids) meters you may have seen—what do they actually measure?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between conductivity (ease of current flow) and inductance (magnetic field effect in coils). • Remember that specific gravity is related to density—does the standard shipboard salinity indicator continuously weigh the water? • Confirm which property is used in common boiler/feedwater salinity alarms and chlorination control units—what do their sensors measure?
