How would the air pressure at the Dead Sea affect the boiling point of water?
The Dead Sea is below mean sea level for the earth; therefore, the pressure at the Dead Sea would be greater than at mean sea level and the boiling point of water would be above 100C.
What will happen if water is not there in earth?
all life on earth would die because all the water would be gone
What phase is water at 150 degrees celsius?
That depends upon the air pressure around the water. At one atmosphere, the average air pressure at sea level on Earth, it would be a gas.
Which state of matter would you expect to find water at 20 Celsius on Earth?
In a liquid, as at sea level water's boiling point is 100 degrees and it's freezing point is 0.
What would happen if there was no ice on earth?
If there was no ice in the arctic, there would be little surface area for all the land animals.+++Two points:1) The Polar Ice-cap melting would have no effect on sea-level as it is floating sea-ice. It needs the ice cover on land(Greenland, the Antarctic continent, glaciers on mountains) to thaw to raise the sea-level.2) Large-scale melting of land ice would raise the sea-level, potentially by tens of metres, and the sea would "transgress" across low-lying land; but plenty of land would remain above water. It would not be like that daft Waterworld film whose title sequence is a map of the Americas being totally obliterated! The worst effects would be on humanity, not wildlife.
Ive been collecting rainwater and would like to know if I can use a old well to store it in. If I pipe in the water will the water fall to the current level or will it raise and hold the water?
A:The level of water in the well will be the level of the water table in the surrounding earth. If you pour your rainwater into the well most of it will seep into the earth around. The level in the well will only rise very slightly. Put the water in something it can't get out of.
What effect would a heavy snowfall have on rivers and streams?
it could possibly make the river rise when it melts
What would glucose do to the blood sugar level?
It would raise it.
What do each of the 8 badges in Pokemon diamond do?
the allow you to have the power to raise your cholesterol level up when you want. why would you want to raise it you say? to lower it, of course! the allow you to have the power to raise your cholesterol level up when you want. why would you want to raise it you say? to lower it, of course!
What is the difference in melting a glacier and iceberg?
They are both ice and they may both be melting. But the iceberg is already displacing water, so by melting does little to raise the sea level. When a glacier melts, the additional water does raise the sea level somewhat. This would be particularly true when major ice caps such as the Greenland ice cap, melt.
How does elekid evolves?
Level elekid up to a level 30 (I would teach it discharge at level 37)
Why wouldn't the water level rise if the icecaps melted seeing as water expands when it freezes?
It is the melting of the ice which sits on the land, like glaciers in Greenland and antarctica, which have the potential to raise sea levels. Secondly, as water warms, it expands. This is called thermal expansion, and may also raise sea level. Water does expand as it freezes. A much needed effect for life on this planet. If it did not, ice would sink in water and kill of life below.
How would the air pressure at the Dead Sea affect the boiling point of water?
The Dead Sea is below mean sea level for the earth; therefore, the pressure at the Dead Sea would be greater than at mean sea level and the boiling point of water would be above 100C.
Would the water level in a canal lock go up or down if a battleship in the lock sank?
the water level would sink. Anything that sinks into the water would cause the water level to sink
What if there was no water on earth?
Without water, earth would not support life.
If the distance between the moon and Earth decreased what would happen to the water level during a tide?
The water level would increase due to increased gravitational pull. This is actually happening right now: the moon is being pulled into the orbit of Earth. It's happening very slowly, but consider this: Atlantis was sank by a giant tidal wave.
Why are you panicing that the south pole is melting and not the north pole?
The North Pole consists of frozen sea water, which if it melts completely will hardly raise the sea level around the world. Now if the Greenland Ice Sheet and the Antarctic Ice Sheet were to melt completely you would see a rise of over 77 metres (252 ft) in the level of the Oceans. Which would lead to vast areas of the land area of Earth to be underwater.
