Answer:
Your question is pretty vague. What's your reference?
A common salt is sodium chloride (table salt). This chemical has many uses. It's found in our oceans (saltwater seas), in our food as a flavoring. It's been used as a preservative in foods, as a form of money in ancient times (a man worth his salt).
Many other salts are common. Potassium nitrate used to be pretty common. It can be used to make fertilizers, explosives, gunpowder, and purportedly to inhibit sexual urges (Salt Peter).
Sal ammoniac (ammonium chloride) is another common salt. It's commonly used as a flux agent in soldering iron work (e.g. stained glass frames). Believe it or not, it's been used as a baking ingredient to give cookies a crisp texture.
TABLE SALT = used for seasoning food
IODIZED SALT = USED to help reduce the chance of iodine deficiency in humans
