Salt is commonly used substance in our daily life. For good general health some simple chemical substances are added to table salt during manufacturing as iodide and iodide stabilizers mostly potassium iodide. In this study, ten different samples of table salts from different factories in Iraq were analyzed by two different analytical methods. As the results of salt samples by ICP-MS analysis are magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba). On the other hand the elements in salt samples by XRF analysis are chlorine (Cl), sodium (Na), calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), magnesium (Mg), silicon (Si), potassium (K), aluminum (Al), iron (Fe), rhodium (Rh), ruthenium (Ru), bromine (Br), strontium (Sr), gallium (Ga), phosphorus (P), nickel (Ni).
