When To be considered fresh water water must contain salt in a concentration .?
To be considered fresh water, water must contain less than 0.05% salt concentration. This low salinity level distinguishes fresh water from salt water found in oceans and seas, which have higher salt concentrations. Fresh water sources include lakes, rivers, and streams.
What concentration would a salt water fish be if moved to fresh water?
it will die
When To be considered fresh water water must contain salt in a concentration?
Water is considered fresh water when its salt concentration, or salinity, is below 0.05%. This low level of salt makes the water suitable for drinking and irrigation, and it is typically found in rivers, lakes, and groundwater sources.
Ocean water has a higher what than fresh water?
Ocean water has a higher salinity than fresh water.
Why is salt water and fresh water different?
One has a higher salt concentration....try to figure which one that is on your own.
What happens when a marine clam is put in fresh water?
Salt water animals (save for the few that actually can live in either salt water or fresh water) can not survive in fresh water because their cells are isotonic to the salt water, but they would be highly hypertonic to the fresh water.That is to say, the concentration of salt within the organism's cells would be equal to the concentration of salt in the salt water, but would be far higher than the concentration of salt in the fresh water, and thus osmosis would be triggered, and the cells would "lyce" (when a cell lyces, it means it bursts due to an overabundant amount of water being forced into the cell)
Does salt water sink in fresh water?
Yes, salt water is denser than fresh water, so it will sink when the two types of water come into contact. This is due to the higher concentration of dissolved salts in the salt water, which increases its density.
What is the concentration of salt in seawater and the specific heat capacities of sea water and fresh water?
the seawater smells
When you add salt water to a carrot where is there a greater concentration of water molecules?
there is more water but not in the carrot and it isn't all fresh water but there is more water than salt
Why can't a saltwater fish live in freshwater?
If the salt water fish were to be put in fresh water then their high salt content inside their bodies (to prevent too much salt diffusing into their bodies) will have it diffusing out down the concentration gradient; killing them. If the fresh water fish were to be put in salt water then their low salt content inside their bodies (to prevent too much salt diffusing out of their bodies) will have it diffusing in again down the concentration gradient; killing them.
Experiments using salt water and fresh water?
Experiments comparing the densities of salt water and fresh water can demonstrate how salinity affects the buoyancy of objects. Salt water is denser than fresh water due to the dissolved salt, causing objects to float higher in salt water compared to fresh water of the same volume. This phenomenon is demonstrated in experiments such as the floating egg or sinking and floating objects in different types of water.
What causes salt water and fresh water to mix?
Salt water and fresh water can mix through processes like diffusion or turbulent mixing. Diffusion occurs when molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration, while turbulent mixing involves the physical mixing of two bodies of water with different salinities.
