What happens when you add salt to the water?

When we add salt to the water, something magical happens…isn’t it? Adding salt to water gives flavour to the water. This in return is absorbed by the water, which is again absorbed by the food. Apart from this, it also increases the boiling point of the water, meaning the water will have a higher temperature when added pasta, so it will cook better. The science behind adding 230 grams of salt to a litre of water is to rise the water temperature by 2 degree Celsius.
