Human kidneys can only make urine that is less salty than salt water. Therefore, to get rid of all the excess salt taken in by drinking seawater, you have to urinate more water than you drank. Eventually, you die of dehydration even as you become thirstier.

Explanation:

Positive ions are cations and they result when an atom lose electrons.

An atom is made up of subatomic particles:

  • Protons are positively charged particle in the nucleus of the atom
  • Neutrons carry no charges and they share the nucleus with protons.
  • The electrons are negatively charged.
