Seawater or salt water is water from a sea or ocean. On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L, or 599 mM). This means that every kilogram (roughly one litre by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams of dissolved salts (predominantly sodium (Na+
) and chloride (Cl-) ions)
) and chloride (Cl-) ions)

I think salinity of the sea water depends on the surrounding land mass. Due to the water run-flow from the land some minerals dissolved and added into the oceans from billion of years. And also by, waste from animals living in oceans and there are some other reasons also.
