The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks what happens to the water level when a pinch of salt is dissolved in a glass of water. 2. **Analyzing the Situation**: When salt is added to water, it dissolves. This means that the salt molecules will interact with the water molecules. 3. **Molecular Interaction**: Water molecules have spaces between them. When salt is added, the salt molecules fit into these spaces between the water molecules. 4. **Effect on Water Level**: Since the salt molecules occupy the spaces between the water molecules without adding extra volume to the water, the overall volume of the water does not increase. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the water level remains the same after dissolving a pinch of salt in it. 6. **Final Answer**: The water level remains the same. ---
