Why is rain water free of impurities?

Rainwater is relatively pure because it forms by condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere. When raindrops form, they do not contain the impurities present in the surrounding air or on the Earth's surface. However, as rain falls through the atmosphere and contacts pollutants in the air or on surfaces, it can pick up impurities.


What is the term for the product of an acid-base reaction in addition to water?

product of acid and base neutralization would be water and salt(doesnt have to be NaCl) example HCl + NaOH -> NaCl + H2O


How do you remove salt in sea sand?

To remove salt from sea sand, you can rinse the sand with fresh water multiple times to leach out the salt. Alternatively, you can soak the sand in fresh water and then evaporate the water through exposure to sunlight, leaving behind the salt-free sand.


Does salt affect the evaporation of water?

Old ans: "salt usually doesnt affect the evaporation of water because when the water is evaporated, the salt is left behind." The a/m ans is out of point. Whilst salt doesn't evaporate, it reduces evaporation by i) increasing the boiling point by: ii) ionic bonding to H2O. This bonding 'stickiness to water moleq' makes it more difficult for the H2O to evaporate (vaporize). So yet, salt content affects the evaporation of H2O by reducing it.


How much salt water is in salt water taffy?

Salt water taffy does not contain actual seawater or salt water as an ingredient. The name "salt water taffy" likely originated from its coastal origins and traditional recipe that includes salt. However, the amount of salt water in salt water taffy is negligible.

Does rain water contain phosphates?

No. Salt is too heavy to evaporate. Even though some rain water is evaporated from the ocean it does not contain salt. No. When the water evaporates, it leaves the salt behind.


If most water evaporates from our salt water oceans why are not rain drops salty?

Salt is not evaporated with water.

How do modern desalinators work in removing salt from ocean water?

it removes salt water by the salt water absorbing by the sun . And the sun absorbs the water and then bring it to the clouds and make rain, the rain goes in the water and its saltwater yet again


Why doesn't rainwater taste of salt?

It doesn't because the rain is fresh water. Salt can't evaporate with water so salt mantains where it is. Or to the simple minded people, Salt doesn't go into clouds or rain.


How you can make rain alarm?

We can make Rain Alarm by salt water solution.


What is the difference between saltwater and rainwater?

Rain water is fresh water and does not have salt. Saltwater is not fresh and does have salt.


Why does not rain salty when the clouds are made from the ocean?

Rain is formed when water droplets in the clouds combine and become heavy enough to fall to the ground. The salt particles in the ocean water are left behind when the water evaporates to form clouds, so the rain that falls is typically fresh water. Salt water is not generally carried up into the atmosphere where clouds form.
