Do the physical properties of water change when a compound is dissolved in water. If so which properties change and why?
The physical properties of water can change when a compound is dissolved in water. The dissolved compound will determine which properties change. Some will change the surface tension, others will change the pH. Many changes are possible.
What best describes the change in salinity in an estuary at low tide?
Salinity falls as the out flowing tide brings in more fresh river water.
What two characteristics of water combine to form a thermohaline?
temperature and salinity
Which condition of ocean water varies with the location and seasons?
salinity
How does temperature and salinity effect the stability of water?
The chemical stability of water is not affected by the salinity; also water decompose at very high temperatures.
How do the properties of sea water differ from does in fresh water?
salt water has salinity while fresh water does not
How would salinity change if some ocean water evaporated?
Salinity is increased.
Is Observing the change in salinity of water over time independent or dependent?
Observing the change in salinity of water over time can be independent or dependent. This depends on the experiment.
How does salinity change in warm climates where water evaporates quickly?
Salinity is increased during time.
What is the Weight of 1 gallon of water at 104 Cdegrees?
It is very difficult to obtain an exact answer converting from volumetric to mass properties. Water temp and salinity will change the density. An approximation would be 8.1 to 8.3 pounds.

What is a measure of how salty water is?
Salinity is a measure of the saltiness of water.

What is lighter warm water with low salinity or cold water with high salinity?
Cold water with high salinity
What is lightest water warm water with low salinity or cold water with high salinity?
cold water w/ high salinity
Why do oceanographers take measurements of the of the seawater?
Conductivity can be used to calculate the salinity of the water.
