The most abundant salts in the ocean are chlorine, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, and potassium. Ocean salinity is affected by multiple factors including ice melt, inflow of river water, evaporation, precipitation, wind, wave motion, and ocean currents.

Sodium chloride dissociates into Na+ and Cl- ions.
