The result would be different. For if only 5ml instead of 10ml were measured, the salinity degree of the solution would be lower. It is possible to measure by a formula the concentration of solute and solvent contained in that amount of solution. C = M / V where C is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute and V is the volume of the solution.
