Solution

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Salt is obtained from seawater on a large scale. Seawater is evaporated under the sun, which leaves salt behind.

However, the sea is not the only source of salt. Some salt deposits are also found on land. The salt obtained from land sources is called rock salt.
