Why can salt particles be more common in air near sea coasts?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Sea spray sends tiny salt particles into the air
The governing concept is the presence of atmospheric aerosols. Breaking waves and sea spray eject tiny droplets containing dissolved salts; when some water evaporates, salt particles remain suspended in coastal air. Therefore option A correctly explains the higher concentration near coasts. Nitrogen is already a major atmospheric gas, ozone does not transform into salt, and argon is inert, so options B, C, and D do not explain coastal salt aerosols.
