Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Option A is correct because the statement is a general statement about a substance (salt) and the noun is also a non-countable hence it does not need an article. Options A and B are incorrect because the noun is a non-countable noun. Option D is incorrect because the 'salt' is being referred to in general, not in specific terms.
