What is the difference between seawater and freshwater?
Seawater has very high levels of sodium , salt, from materials in the sand, freshwater, lakes and ponds, have very low, if any salt levels , so, never consume seawater without first filtering it, it will kill you.
What is the major element that increases the salinity of seawater?
Sodium, Na
Is a lake salty?
They can be. It's all up to whether it has an outlet or not. Lakes with outlets are generally freshwater unless they are too close to the ocean and get intruded with seawater. If they have no outlet the minerals accumulates and the lake becomes salty.
What halogen is found in seawater?
The halogen found in seawater is bromine.
What forms when more dense seawater sinks under less dense seawater?
Density current
Is seawater a better conductor of electrcity than water from a freshwater lake?
Yes, seawater is a better conductor of electricity than water from a freshwater lake. This is because seawater contains a higher concentration of dissolved ions, such as sodium and chloride, which allow for the flow of electrical current more easily compared to freshwater that has fewer dissolved ions.
What process removes the major ions from seawater?
Reverse Osmosis
If freshwater and seawater meet at the mouth of a river which one sinks and why?
Seawater is more dense than freshwater. Therefore the seawater would sink lower than the freshwater. Ships do indeed stay higher in seawater because of the higher density or specific gravity of seawater over freshwater
What is the scientific difference between seawater and freshwater?
Seawater has a higher concentration of salts and minerals compared to freshwater. Seawater also has a higher density and freezes at lower temperatures than freshwater. Additionally, seawater has a higher pH and different composition of dissolved gases compared to freshwater.
What are the major ions in freshwater?
The major ions in freshwater typically include calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), bicarbonate (HCO3-), sulfate (SO42-), and chloride (Cl-). These ions contribute to the overall composition and chemistry of freshwater bodies.
Is bluefish a freshwater animal or a seawater animal?
its a seawater fish
Seawater is typically denser than freshwater due to seawater's?
Salt
What are the predominant ions in seawater?
The most predominant ions in seawater are Na+,Mg+,I-,cl-.
What are the two major aquatic systems?
I believe its marine & freshwater ecosystems
Is a goldfish a seawater freshwater or tropical fish?
Goldfish are freshwater, not saltwater.
What is the density of wood in ocean and freshwater?
It is 787.975 in seawater and freshwater's is 211.
Seawater is different to freshwater because it contain?
higher levels of salt and other minerals, making it more saline than freshwater. Seawater also has different organisms and ecosystems adapted to its unique conditions compared to freshwater environments. Additionally, seawater has a higher density and freezing point compared to freshwater.
