Fresh water is from rain or snow and is very pure and free of dissolved salts. Salt water is sea water and contains salts (mainly sodium chloride ie common salt)brought in by rivers over millions of years which cannot escape and the sea therefore gets more and more salty every year. Well fresh water evaporates and with the salt water the salt stays in the water that hasn't evaporated yet.
