Absolutely..........

Explanation:

Sea water contains $N a^{+}$ $Na^+$ and $C l^{-}$ $Cl^(-)$ ions. This site tells us that every litre of seawater contains approx. $35 \cdot g$ $35*g$ solute, which is mostly dissolved $N a C l$ $NaCl$ . Can you tell us the molar concentration with respect to $N a C l$ $NaCl$ , i.e.

$Concentration$ $"Concentration"$ $=$ $=$ $\frac{Moles of NaCl}{Volume of solution}$ $"Moles of NaCl"/"Volume of solution"$
