Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m^3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. The mass of the salty water is calculated as follows:

Mass = 1.166 g/mL ( 2000 mL ) = 2332 g of salty water
