Solution

Dear Student

No, iceberg are made of fresh water. Iceberg is made of compact snow which is got divided from a glacier sheet which are made of fresh water.

Icebergs are glacier fragments that have fallen into the sea. Glaciers are made of snow which is fresh water. The salty sea water does not mix with the fresh water that the iceberg is made of, thus, icebergs are not salty.
