🔍 Key Concepts

• Density of salt water vs. fresh water • Approximate weight of one cubic foot of fresh water • Effect of salinity on water weight

💭 Think About

• First recall about how many pounds one cubic foot of fresh water weighs, then adjust slightly for salt water being heavier. • Compare each answer choice to what you remember about the weight of fresh water and decide which is the most realistic. • Think about whether doubling or tripling the weight of fresh water makes physical sense when turning it into salt water.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you know the standard approximation for 1 cubic foot of fresh water (in pounds). • Confirm that the increase from fresh to salt water is only a modest percentage, not an extreme jump. • Check which option is closest to the fresh-water value but slightly higher, not dramatically higher.
