Does salt decrease the melting point of water?
Yes, sea water can freeze up to - 3 0C.
Processes that increase the density of sea water included evaporation and what?
Water being evaporated, the concentration of salt increase and as a consuquence the density increase.
When the increase in the salinity of seawater result in an increase or decrease in density?
If you compare the density of sea water, and then compared the extremely salty Dead Sea, you will find that the more salt in the water, the higher is the density. Which is why you can float on the Dead Sea while reading a newspaper (which I once saw demonstrated in a documentary). Also, a ship will float lower on a fresh water lake, and float higher on salt water.
Why sea water has minerals like salts in it?
Sea water contains minerals like salts because it is sourced from various processes, such as erosion of rocks, volcanic activity, and dissolution of minerals from the earth's crust. These processes release salts and other mineral compounds into rivers, which ultimately flow into the oceans. Over time, the accumulation of these minerals in the ocean results in the high salinity and mineral content of sea water.
Is a halocline an abrupt rapid change in salinity?
Yes, as changes in salinty affects the density of sea water, another of putting it would be that a Halocline is simply a region below the surface of a body of water where there is a significant increase or decrease in density.
How do you turn sea water to water?
Their are two processes, distillation and reverse osmosis.
Does salt decrease the melting point of water?
Yes, sea water can freeze up to - 3 0C.
How does sea salt get to you?
Salt is obtained by the evaporation of sea water followed by purification(processes of dissolution/crystallization/recrystallization).
How weather affects evaporation of water from land and sea?
Evaporation increase with the increase of temperature and decrease of pressure..
What is the specialty of the Black Sea?
the deep waters are axonic. it has an average surface temperature of 8 degree C - 14 degree C. it has an average saltinity of 18 - 18.5.................thats all i know !!
Processes that increase the density of sea water included evaporation and what?
Water being evaporated, the concentration of salt increase and as a consuquence the density increase.
Where does mixing occur in an estuary?
Mixing of river water with sea water occurs where tidal or wave processes interact with river processes. This exact mixing zone is different for each estuary and depends on the relative strengths of river, tidal, and wave processes as well as their relative temperatures and densities.
How do you convert water psi to water temperature?
Not directly you cant, but sea temperature does decrease with depth, although its not a straight line graph ( though depth : pressure is.)
Is If sea water has salt in it it will freeze at a lower temperature than fresh water is this sentence a hypothesis?
No. A hypothesis would be "As the gradient of salt in the water increases the freezing point would decrease"
If you emptied the sea of wildlife and all other objects by what depth would the water decrease?
haha, good question. I think it would.
How does the Morton Salt Company on Inagua make salt?
Water from sea water is evaporated to obtain impure salt; after crystallization/recrystallization repeated processes pure table salt is obtained.
Does the level of the sea decrease if a bucket of water is removed?
Yes it does. But the difference is so small to measure. It is like removing a tiny star from the sky at night.
