Salt water is a type of well-mixed mixture called an?
salt water is a type of well mixed mixture called a solution
Which type of heat transfer occurs in a pot of water when less dense heated water rises to the water's surface and displaces the more dense cooler water at the top causing the cooler water to sink to?
The heat transfer is by conduction.
What type of mixture is salt dissolved in water?
Salt dissolved in water is a solution, not a mixture. The result is called a saline solution.
How long does it take for sugar to dissolve in lukewarm water?
This depends on: - mass of sugar - granulation of sugar - volume of water - stirring (and intensity of stirring, stirrer type) - type and geometry of the beaker - exact temperature of water
When water is dripped or spilt o a table what shape is it and why?
Particles inside a liquid like water interact with nearby particles to form a minimum energy state inside the liquid. A physical configuration of particle is in fact stable if it has the minimum possible energy. The particles on the surface dividing two different materials, for example a liquid and a solid (like water and the table surface) are different from particles in the body of the materials in the sense that they are in contact with particle of different type across the contact surface. This causes in general the accumulation of energy on the surface, since more energy is needed to maintain the surface with respect to the energy that is needed to maintain the compactness of the bulk of the liquid. This phenomenon causes the insurgence of the so called surface pressure, that causes the surface area to be minimized so to minimize the surface energy. This is why droplets, in the absence of gravity (or very small droplet for which gravity is negligible with respect to surface tension) are spheres. As a matter of fact the sphere has the maximum possible ratio between volume and area, that is the smallest area for a given volume. This happens also for water dropped on a table, it does not form an infinitely thin and wide film, but remains compact to minimize the contact surface with the table and the air. In case, if the water is dropped with a great velocity, the dropping kinetic energy causes the water body to be divided in several small droplets, but each droplet, once the initial kinetic energy is absorbed by droplet formation and attrition, behave so to minimize surface energy. This discussion naturally assumes that the water is not absorbed by the table surface. If the table surface is porous so to absorb water molecule, gravity and capillary effect causes water to penetrate into the wood structure. Since capillary effect (another consequence of surface tension) is stronger and stronger while the capillary is smaller and smaller, the water will tend to penetrate in very small pores of the wood, so creating a water blot in the wood surface. Naturally this kind of blot is removed with time when water evaporate. In few cases it is possible that water creates a chemical reaction with the table surface after penetrating into it, for example by polymers hydrogenation in the case of a ruined plastic surface. In this case a blot is formed in the surface that cannot be cancelled by evaporation and remains unless eliminated with chemical methods (for example with suitable detergents).
What type of weather environment do dolphins have?
Dolphins live beneath the sea in the water. There is nothing called 'weather' under the ocean's surface.
What type of water is most likely to float on the surface of the ocean?
Ice is a form of water that will float on the surface of the ocean.
Uranus type of surface?
water, methane, and ammonia
Is well water a type of surface water?
Well water is by definition from an underground aquifer, or water table.
What is it called when water molecules sticks together?
adhesion - when different molecules stick together (water to clothes) cohesion - when molecules of the same type stick together (water to water)
What type of bugs walk on water?
Because of surface tension.
Type of water exuding pore on the surface of leaves?
hydathode
Which type of soil holds the least of water?
surface soil
What are some of the powerful forces that change the earth's surface?
There is a type of matter in a neutron star that will completely change the earth's surface and it is called strange matter that is so powerful that it will make the earth a blob of a mess, even water!
Which type of water comes from wells?
Underground or rain water comes from wells. Wells are dug deep down the earth's surface.
Type of water extruding pore on the surface of various leaves 9?
hydathode
What is earths surface type made up of?
Most of it is water, the rest is rock.
