Dec 21, 2003 #3 kenvlach Materials Apr 12, 2000 2,514 My CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics has 2 tables for the composition of seawater: a) By elements (81 are listed), 2) By major ions (13). This is one of the best on-line listings by ionic makeup, listed in order of decreasing composition: http://www.petsforum.com/personal/trevor-jones/seawater.html This gives the total composition of seawater, with 1st the few major components, then for all the elements (in order of atomic weight) : http://www.seafriends.org.nz/oceano/seawater.htm Upvote 0 Downvote
