Is mineral water an element mixture or compound?
Mineral water contains other elements or compounds too. They contain elements and compounds like Sodium, magnesium,macro nutrients,calcium and other minerals. So mineral water is a mixture of compounds.
What has the lowest density a Salt water b Mineral water c Oxygen d Water?

Difference between bottled spring water and bottled mineral water?
Mineral water has minerals in it but spring water dosent.
What is the chemical formula of mineral water?
There is no formula for mineral water because it has too many chemicals inside it. Mineral water is not a compound, it is a mixture.
Are all samples of water have the same composition of hydrogen and oxygen?
All pure water is the same, but most water we use has other things in it. For example mineral water has minerals.
A mineral has a specific gravity of 7.0 What does this mean?
Specific gravity is a comparison of the density of one material to the density of water (at 4 degrees C). When a mineral has a specific gravity (SG) of 7.0 it means that the mineral is 7.0 times as heavy as the same volume of water.
What is the history of lithia mineral water?
Lithia mineral water originates from the Lithia springs, which have existed since prehistoric times. The mineral water comes from a temple in the area, where the water was said to have healing properties.
Is mineral water an element mixture or compound?
Mineral water contains other elements or compounds too. They contain elements and compounds like Sodium, magnesium,macro nutrients,calcium and other minerals. So mineral water is a mixture of compounds.
If a mineral is 10 times heavier than water what is its specific gravity?
specific gravity = relative density ( relative to water) , so if the mineral is 10 times the density of water, then its specific gravity is 10
What mineral is used to make stucco?
Lime, sand , sometimes Portland cement, and water.
How do water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of the plant?
Stem is the only one that will transport the water,food,mineral salts and sugar(food) to all parts of the plant. Because of stems,the water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of a plant.
What does it mean when a mineral has a specific gravity of 4.0?
A specific gravity of 4.0 for a mineral means that a given volume of the mineral has 4.0 times the mass of the same volume of water.
Does adding a pinch of baking soda to drinking water will help in acidity problem?
Sometimes it does and other times it dosent.
