How big is the Great Salt Lake?

the actual size depends on the rain, but it is approximately 62 miles long and 30 miles wide, and about 16 feet deep. hope that helps.

Ocean water has more dissolved solids in it, mostly salt. Great Salt Lake in Utah is even saltier than the ocean and a person can float on it like s/he was on a raft. Don't make the mistake of rubbing your eyes though, because it stings like hell!

It depends how you define a water feature.\n\nIf we are including things like open bays and habours the largest natural water feature is the Great Australian Bight.\n\nIf we excluding such features as part of the ocean then the largest would be  Lake Eyre, though it is an ephemeral feature and only contains appreciable amounts of water every 10 years or so. “Lake Eyre is the thirteenth biggest and saltiest Lake in the world. Lake Eyre north is 144 km long and 77 km wide and is joined by the narrow goyder channeled to Lake Eyre south which is 64 km long and 24 km wide.”

I'm not sure about the size of the Titanic, but Noah's ark was 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. It had 1.5 million square feet of storage space, compared to a medium-sized home at 2,000 square feet. Due to the design of the ark, it's structure has been shown to be extraordinarily stable in rough weather and almost impossible to capsize.

The largest freshwater lake in the British Isles is Lough Neagh in Northern Ireland with a surface area of about 388 sq/km.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lough_Neagh

Chlorine is much bigger.

Wrangell - St. Elias National Park and Preserve is the largest in the NPS system at 13.2 million acres (20,625 sq miles). Until Wrangell - St. Elias was added in 1980, Yellowstone, at 2,219,789 acres (3,472 sq mile) was the largest and still is the largest in the lower 48 states.

it's very big ,the best to answer this question is Bush.

Size. Lakes are bigger but there is no official \ndifference. It's arbitrary or subjective.

the Caspian Sea which is, in fact, a lake.\nreferred to as a sea, because of it's size (largest lake in the world) and also because it is saltwater and not a freshwater lake.

Some competing information here.  So here's a reference for you to check,\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Lakes_(North_America)\n\n"The Great Lakes are (west to east, general direction of water flow):\n\nLake Superior (the largest and deepest, larger than Scotland or South Carolina) \nLake Michigan (the only one entirely in the U.S., the second largest in volume) "\n=============================\n\n"Lake Michigan, the second largest Great Lake by volume with just under 1,180 cubic miles of water, is the only Great Lake entirely within the United States." http://www.great-lakes.net/lakes/michigan.html\n\n"Not only is Lake Superior the largest of the Great Lakes, it also has the largest surface area of any freshwater lake in the world." http://www.great-lakes.net/lakes/superior.html

Lake Peigneur is a 1,300 feet (396 meters) deep, salt-water lake near New Iberia, Louisiana. The name Peigneur is French for "comber".\n\nThe lake was previously an eleven foot shallow fresh-water lake until an unusual man-made incident on November 21, 1980. At that time, Diamond Crystal Salt Company operated the Jefferson Island salt mine under the lake while a Texaco oil rig was drilling down from the surface of the lake.\n\nAll the evidence having been destroyed in the ensuing maelstrom, the generally accepted cause of the disaster is that a miscalculation from the Texaco drilling operation as to its location, relative to Diamond Crystal's, ended up with the drill puncturing the roof of the third level of Diamond Crystal's salt mine, creating an opening in the bottom of the lake (similar to one removing the drain plug from a bathtub). The lake then proceeded to drain into the hole, with the packed salt underneath absorbing water nearly as fast as it poured in, resulting in the draining of the lake into the salt mine. A resultant whirlpool sucked in the drilling platform, eleven barges, many trees and some of the surrounding terrain. The salt mine was so large and so able to absorb the water pouring into it that the water level dropped significantly, enough to reverse the flow of the Delcambre canal that leads to the Gulf of Mexico. This backflow created, for a few days, the tallest waterfall ever in the state of Louisiana, at 150 feet (50 m), as the lake refilled with salt water to replace the fresh water now in the salt mine.\n\nFortunately, even with the grand physical effects there were no injuries and no human lives were lost - all 55 miners in the salt mine were able to escape, and the drillers escaped the platform before it was sucked into the lake - though three dogs were killed. Later, in the aftermath of the disaster, nine of the eleven sunken barges popped out of the whirlpool and refloated on the lake's surface.\n\nThe event dramatically affected the ecosystem of the lake (both by greatly increasing the depth of the lake from eleven feet to 1,300 feet, and changing the lake from freshwater to saltwater) and the biology (by introducing new plants and changing the type of fish that inhabited the lake).\n\nThe drilling company, Texaco and Wilson Brothers paid $32 million (USD) to Diamond Crystal and $12.8 million to nearby Live Oak Gardens in out-of-court settlements to compensate for the damage caused.

size.\n\n\nOceans (from Ὠκεανός Okeanos in Greek, the ancient Greeks noticing the strong current that flowed off Gibraltar and assuming it was a great river) cover almost three quarters (71%) of the surface of the Earth, and nearly half of the world's marine waters are over 3,000 meters (9,800 ft) deep. The area of the oceans is 361 million sq. km.\n\nThis global, interconnected body of salt water, called the World Ocean, is generally divided by the continents and archipelagos into the following bodies, from the largest to the smallest: the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean.\n\nSmaller regions of the oceans are called seas, gulfs, straits and other names.\n\nA sea is a large expanse of saline water connected with an ocean, or a large, usually saline, lake that lacks a natural outlet such as the Caspian Sea and the Dead Sea. The term is used colloquially as synonymous with ocean, as in the tropical sea or down to the sea shore, or even sea water referring to water of the ocean. Large lakes are sometimes referred to as inland seas, such as the Great Lakes. Many seas are marginal seas, in which currents are caused by ocean winds; others are mediterranean seas, in which currents are caused by differences in salinity and temperature.\n\nhttp://www.iho.shom.fr/PUBLICATIONS/download.htm

The deepest lake is lake Baikal. In east Siberia, Russia.\nThe Olkhon Crevice, the deepest point of the lake, has a depht of 5,875 ft., of wich 3,875 are below sea level.\n...........................\nThe biggest lake, is the Caspian Sea, an island sea wich covers parts of Azerbaijan, Russia,etc.\nIt's 760 miles long,with a surface area of 143,560 miles and an estimated volume of 21,500 cubic miles.\n..............................\nI also heard that the lake Tangyanika in central africa is the bigguest....

Yes. The salt water is denser and thus easier to float on. I have tried this in the Great Salt Lake and experienced it first hand.
