What is the difference between a salt water lake and an inland sea?
a salt water lake has a freshwater inlet but and inland sea has no inlet.
What are the major ions in seawater and freshwater?
The major ions in sea water are chloride, sodium, sulphate, magnesium, calcium, potassium, bicarbonate, bromide, strontium,boron and flouride.
Where would you find the lowest density in seawater?
Answer 1) At the Surface. Answer 2) I disagree with the above answer. For practical purposes water is not compressible. Therefore the density is the same all over. The difference in density at the surface and at the bottom is so small that it is negligible. However, fresh water is less dense than seawater, since the salts dissolved in the seawater makes it more dense. For that reason, if you consider seawater near the mouth of a river, that water will be less dense than the seawater in general.
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 water gets cold faster saltwater or freshwater?
It doesn't make a difference weather it is saltwater or freshwater because they will cool at the same rate it is just that when saltwater evaporates it will leave the salt particles behind.
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 is the difference between freshwater lochs and seawater lochs?
You've already answered your own question. The difference is that feshwater lochs contain fresh water while seawater lochs contain seawater.
What is the term for water that is intermediate in salinity between freshwater and seawater?
brackish
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
Is bluefish a freshwater animal or a seawater animal?
its a seawater fish
Seawater is typically denser than freshwater due to seawater's?
Salt
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.
Why Seawater is typically denser than freshwater?
Seawater is denser than freshwater because it contains dissolved salts and minerals, such as sodium and chloride, which add weight to the water molecules. These dissolved substances increase the overall mass of seawater and make it denser than freshwater.
How do you get freshwater from seawater?
They haven't found a way yet
The water in estuariers is?
brackish (a combination of seawater and freshwater)
