What is the relationship between salinity and soil pH?
Salinity is the avaiable salt content of the soil or whatever your testing pH in the soil i dont know much about but in water i know that is is the available amount of acidity and bacitity
Why do soil have different pH?
Soil pH is largely a factor of the ratio of the soil's organic matter content to its mineral component. Soils high in organic matter have a lower pH. The kind of minerals can also have an effect on pH.
What information would you find on a typical soil test report?
* nutrient content NPK * soil particles conposition * ion capacity * pH * max water capacity * drainage
What is meant by soil pH?
In science or chemistry or anything similar, pH is defined as the acidity content or amount within something, and so soil pH refers to the amount of acid a sample or area of soil may contain.
How Soil affects the PH scale of water?
It always depends on the kind of soil you have.If for example you work on acidic soil your water Ph will tend to get acidic.
What causes low pH in river water?
pollen === Pollen? Hardly! The pH of river water is affected by a variety of factors: dissolved CO2 from the air (making it slightly acidic), organic acids from the soil, and by dissolved minerals such as calcium carbonate.
What are needed for the seed germination?
The conditions necessary for seed germination include:optimum temperature,oxygen,adequate supply of water,sunlight,moisture content,soil ph......
What are some biotic and abiotic in a swamp?
Abiotic factors - water temperature, dissolved oxygen content, water pH, soil type Biotic factors - crabs, fish, algae, seaweed
How does one measure mineral content in the soil?
You can use a Soil Test kit (Rapitest Soil Test Kit) to find the pH and levels of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.
What maintains pH and regulates water content in the blood?
The kidneys maintain the pH and regulate water content in the blood. The kidneys also remove waste products and filter them into the bladder to be removed.
How does the pH of soil relate to the pH of the water around the soil?
The pH value of a soil is influenced by the kinds of parent materials from which the soil was formed. Soils formed from basic rocks have a higher pH than soil formed from acidic rocks. Water passing through soil leach nutrients such as calcium and magnesium. These nutrients are replaced by acidic elements such as aluminum and iron. Therefore soil that is formed under high rainfall are more acidic than soil that is formed under arid conditions.
Is Tonic water acidic or alkaline?
The PH level of tap water can change depending on where you are. Due to the fact that water treatment plants use diffrent chemicals which may alter the pH level of 7 that pure distiled water would have (:
