How much salt does it take to stop dissolving in a liquid?

The amount of salt that can dissolve in a liquid before it stops dissolving depends on the type of salt and the temperature of the liquid. For example, at room temperature, about 357 grams of table salt (sodium chloride) can dissolve in one liter of water. Once the solution reaches its saturation point, any additional salt will not dissolve and will remain at the bottom. This saturation point can vary with temperature, as heating the liquid typically allows more salt to dissolve.
