How do you convert sea water into pure water?
There are several methods of desalination:Distillation. The fresh water evaporates and is collected in a cooler place. This can be simple or complex. Rain is a distillation process. Heating up the salt water makes it evaporate faster.Reverse Osmosis. There are membranes that pass fresh water. Pressuring the salt water to push it through the osmotic membrane speeds up the process. This is the preferred way for large scale drinking water plants, because of its lower energy requirement.Electrolysis. Turn the salt water into oxygen and hydrogen then recombine them. Result pure water.
Should you try to dissolve a compound in water to determine if it is polar?
This method may work in certain cases, but many polar compounds are immiscible in water. An example would be fatty acids: polar by definition, but can be insoluble in H2O as their tail length increases
Asenapine maleate method of analysis by HPLC?
yes
How do you determine phosphate with the molybdenum blue method yes?
I too would like to know. In a few weeks I would be able to tell you the method as I have to do it
Can you boil diamonds and gold?
If you have gold in your diamond ring, the ideal method to clean it is by using boiling water, as it does not contain any chemicals. However, be reminded of the fact that cleaning jewelry using boiling water is not a good option if it contains gemstones other than diamonds
Does the desalination plant in Hadera help Israel?
Yes. It helps to assuage Israel's water issues.
Is desalination important?
Yes. The Earth's water is running out and we need new ways to take water and make it fresh. There are many forms of desalination, but many are very expensive. Less than 1% of the Earth's water is fresh and many people are polluting the very little water we have.
What is the process of changing salt water into fresh water called?
Desalination idk if i spelled that correctly. here is one method that you can use according to Desalination. Okay, so put the salt water into a boiling pot.... the fresh water gets evaporated but the salt is to heavy to get evaporated so the fresh water then gets condensed and changes into a drinkable water. ik what your thinking.... why don't we use this since 97% of the earth is saltwater and if you do the math 3% is freshwater. Well, i thought the same thing until i found out that it is very expensive to do that. there are other methods but get a bit complicated, kids please do not do this method, it will not work. People in factory's do this type of stuff. Okay? Oh yes and adults- don't think you can do this either!
Do we need desalination?
yes we do
Is desalination sustainable?
yes
Can you put a fresh water turtle in salt water?
Yes. Desalination is common, used on boats and on large scale for instance in the Middle East. The water is generally evaporated and collected, leaving the salt behind.
Are desalinization and desalination interchangeable words?
Yes. Desalinization is a redundant and incorrect form, so desalination only should be used.
Can you get pure water from salt water?
Yes, you can distill the salt water (boil it) and collect the steam, the condensed stream will be pure water. You can also squeeze salt water through a semi permeable membrane (as in a desalination plant) and get fresh water.
What is the process of evaporating water from seawater for drinking?
First step is filtration - particles are filtered out. Then desalination - this is done by heating the water and letting it evaporate or by reverse osmosis (pushing it through a special filter) Then water is typically chlorinated (chlorine is added) and in most countries also flourinated. At that point it good enough to drink.
Is desalination is expensive because it requires a lot of energy?
yes
Is desalination expensive because it requires a lot of energy?
yes
Can you remove salt from saltwater?
Yes. There are many desalination plants in the world. They remove the salts from the seawater allowing it to be consumed. The US military naval craft use this method to insure clean water for sailors as well. See the related link for more information.
