By bubbling oxygen (or air) through the water, splashing water through the air (waterfall). That is where the oxygen that fish breathe comes from. It is separate from the oxygen that was chemically combined with hydrogen to form the water.

When you mix oxygen and water what will happen?

Some of the oxygen will dissolve in the water.


What will cause a greater amount of oxygen to dissolve in 100 g of water?

High surface area of the water The colder the water the more dissolved oxygen Running water will dissolve more oxygen


Can oxygen dissolve?

Yes. Fish survive by "breathing" the oxygen dissolved in the water.


What will cause a greater amount of oxygen gas to dissolve in 100 g of water?

Lowering the temperature or increasing the pressure will cause a greater amount of oxygen gas to dissolve in water. This is because gases are more soluble in liquids at lower temperatures and higher pressures.


Can oxygen dissolve in water and how does this process occur?

Yes, oxygen can dissolve in water through a process called diffusion. This occurs when oxygen molecules in the air come into contact with the water's surface and move into the water due to differences in concentration. Once in the water, the oxygen molecules can be taken up by aquatic organisms for respiration.


How does the temperature of water affect the amount of oxygen dissolved in it?

The temperature of water affects the amount of oxygen dissolved in it. Generally, colder water can hold more oxygen compared to warmer water. This is because cold water molecules are closer together, allowing more oxygen molecules to dissolve in the water. Conversely, warmer water molecules are farther apart, making it harder for oxygen to dissolve.


Is oxygen a gas dissolved in sea water?

Oxygen does dissolve into sea water, as do many other gasses such as CO2.


Does boiling water have oxygen in it?

No,boiling water does not have oxygen . Cold water molecules move slowly meaning there is space between the molecules for more oxygen to dissolve. Hot water molecules move rapidly meaning the space between the water molecules is less avalible for the oxygen molecues to dissolve into.


Do mono saccharides dissolve well in water?

Monosaccharides will dissolve well in water. This is made possible by the oxygen in the carbohydrates which will create polar bonds.


What is the gas that dissolve in water and keep marine animals alive?

Oxygen.


What are two ways oxygen is dissolved in water?

Oxygen can dissolve in water through direct diffusion from the atmosphere at the water's surface. Oxygen can also be produced through photosynthesis by aquatic plants and algae, increasing oxygen levels in water.


Why some gases dissolve in water?

Gasses dissolve in water because they bond to the water molecules. Gasses like hydrogen will bond with the oxygen in water to create H202 for example.
