  4. Agree/Disagree The most abundant gas in the ocean is Hydrogen If there’s 1000 g of ocean water 3.5 of those grams would be salt Salinity is the amount of dissolved salt in water There are more gases at the bottom of the ocean Oceanographers use seismic waves to study the bottom of the ocean floor Volcanic activity is one way that salt is added to ocean water. Evaporation decreases the salinity of ocean water. Our test is next Monday
