The oceanographers define salinity by the number of grams of salt per kilogram of water.  

Salinity is illustrated as how much salt is present in the given amount of water. It is dependent upon how much salt is found in the ocean in the specific regions. If there is a sunny environment, it may evaporate an ample amount of water, and leave behind a lot of salt, thus, the water has more salinity.  

The salinity of the ocean is usually measured in Practical Salinity Unit (PSU), it is a unit based on the characteristics of seawater conductivity.

Both protons and neutrons (and their anti-particles) froze out:
VladimirAG [237]
I think Both protons and neutrons (and their anti-particles) froze out at 1013 K, about 0.0001 seconds after the Big Bang. Protons and neutrons are sub atomic particles of an atom that are found in the nucleus of an atom. Proton is the positively charge particle while the neutron has no charge. The proton positive charge accounts for the positive nuclear charge.
