Default The Saline Slopes of Mars

The temperature range of liquid water on Earth is 100 degrees.
The same range of bound water on Mars is 95 degrees.
If all the water on Mars were limited to a bound water cycle.
The maximum amount would be limited by the amount of perchlorates.
Are there enough perchlorates to contain an ocean?
Liquid water on Mars has 5 degree range.
Mars thermometer goes from -71 to 24 degrees
centigrade for bound water
