Which statement is true regarding the motion of liquid water molecules and ice molecules?

Liquid water molecules exhibit a greater amount of motion than ice molecules.


What are watersheds separated from each other by a higher ground?

Watersheds are also known as drainage basins. The most common means to seperate watersheds is in the form of ridges and hills. The largest watershed in the United States is the Mississippi River which drains water from the Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico.


What causes the liquid water to turn into water vapor?

Water vapor is water in its molecular form, separate units of H2O floating around in the air. But air can only carry a certain amount of water vapor. When it gets to be too much water vapor, the water molecules will bind together to form tiny droplets until the remaining free H2O molecules can again be carried by the air. The process in which excess H2O molecules bond together to form a liquid is called condensation. The amount of water vapor one amount of air can carry is dependent on temperature, the warmer it is, the more H2O molecules you can have for each unit of air. And also the reverse - the colder it gets, the fewer H2O molecules can be carried in the air. So the most common cause of condensation is moist air being cooled down. When you see drops of water forming on something that's just been taken out of the fridge, this is what's happening.


Does the amount of water on earth change why or why not?

For the most part, the amount of water on Earth stays the same. The only way for the amount of Earth's water to increase would be for it to come from outer space. Not coincidentally, this is precisely what happens. Comets, made of dust and ice, enter the Earth's atmosphere and melt from the friction of the air as it plummets towards Earth's surface. The resulting water is then added to the already existing water in the earth's atmosphere (clouds), in bodies of water (oceans, lakes, etc.), and the water trapped in the form of ice (glaciers, icebergs, etc.)


Which solute an electrolyte or a non electrolyte has the greater effect on the boiling point when a given amount of each solute is dissolved in the same mass of water?

The effect depends only on the concentration of solutes.

Is water always abundant in a watershed region?

Some parts of a river's watershed may provide a steady flow replenished by groundwater or frequent rain, while other rivers receive water from their watershed region only during intense storms or from the melting of snow and glaciers each spring. A river which flows year-round with water from an abundant watershed is called a perennial river and a river flowing only during part of the year is called an ephemeral river.
