A. FRESHWATER ON EARTH. 70% of Earth is covered in water.. 3% of Earth’s water is freshwater (97% saltwater). FRESHWATER CONTAINS LESS THAN 1% SALT. 68.7% of FRESHWATER is frozen in glaciers and icecaps.  . QUESTION. When heated to about 370 degrees . celsius. will saltwater or freshwater hold heat the longest? . RESEARCH.      Table salt nutrition facts can be found at the back of the packaging. Every 1 tablespoon (18 grams) of table salt you gain 0 calories, there is 0% total fat so there is no saturated fat, polyunsaturated fat and monounsaturated fat. Along with no saturated fats there is also no cholesterol or any carbohydrates as well as no sugars or protein. Salt may not be a good source of vitamins A,D,B-12,C and B-6 since there is no trace of them in table salt, including calcium, iron, magnesium. But  there is 590mg of sodium in salt. There is also 1mg of potassium. .
