1. The most important part of the sodium and chlorine are dissolved from the earth salts and transported by rivers in seas/oceans.
2. A small part of chlorine is originated from the eruptions of submarine volcanoes

Table salt primarily comes from two sources: mined salt from underground salt deposits or sea salt extracted through the evaporation of seawater. The main mineral in table salt is sodium chloride, which is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance and nerve function in the body.
The two main sources of salt are natural deposits in salt mines and sea water. Salt can be harvested from salt mines through mining and from sea water through the process of evaporation.
by rivers
The two primary sources for dissolved components in seawater are weathering of rocks on land, which releases minerals into rivers and eventually the ocean, and gases released by volcanic activity. These sources contribute ions like sodium, chloride, calcium, and magnesium to seawater.
Two sources of oxygen in seawater at the surface include atmospheric exchange, where oxygen from the air dissolves into the water, and photosynthesis by marine plants and phytoplankton, which produce oxygen as a byproduct.
The two processes that add salt to seawater are the chemical weathering of rocks on land, which release minerals into rivers that eventually flow into the ocean, and the evaporation of water from the ocean surface, leaving behind salt in the form of halite (table salt).
The two main sources of sediment in the deep sea are: (1) Coastal Erosion - rivers, wind-blown dust and sand (from the deserts), volcanic eruptions (ash), glacially dumped sediment - about 45% (2) Dead organisms - shells and skeletons - about 55% The other two are least common: Precipitation from supersaturated water (less than 1%), and Extraterrestrial in origin (a tiny fraction of 1%)
When the two most abundant elements in seawater, sodium and chloride ions, combine, they form sodium chloride salt (NaCl), which is commonly known as table salt. This compound makes up the majority of the dissolved solids in seawater.
These elements are transported by rivers to the sea. Another source is the volcanic activity.
Rock salt is primarily composed of sodium chloride and is formed by the evaporation of seawater. As the seawater evaporates, the salt crystallizes and forms deposits that are then harvested for various industrial and culinary purposes.
The two main sources in water vapor are farming and manufacturing
Salt is removed from seawater through a process called desalination. There are two common methods: distillation, where the water is heated to create steam that is then condensed into fresh water, and reverse osmosis, where pressure is used to force seawater through a membrane that only allows water molecules to pass through, leaving the salt behind.
