Cold water can hold more dissolved gasses than hot water, though that does not necessarily mean anything about the amount of dissolved gas actually present in a given sample.

Which one of the following regions would you expect to find the largest amounts of dissolved oxygen in the ocean water?

In the polar regions, there is more dissolved oxygen in the ocean water. The cold water is able to hold more dissolved gases than warm water.


Can cold or hot water hold more oxygen?

Cold water can hold more oxygen than hot water. This is because gases are more soluble in colder temperatures than in warmer temperatures. As the temperature of water increases, its ability to hold dissolved gases, including oxygen, decreases.


Do bubbles last longer in hot water or cold water and why?

Bubbles typically last longer in cold water than in hot water. This is because cold water has a higher concentration of dissolved gases, which helps maintain the integrity of the bubble's structure. In contrast, hot water has lower gas solubility, causing bubbles to burst more quickly.


Why does boiling water freeze faster than cold water?

The Mpemba effect, where hot water freezes faster than cold water, is a complex phenomenon that is not fully understood. Some possible explanations include faster evaporation of hot water, differences in dissolved gases, and changes in the structure of water molecules.


Why sugar dissolved in hot water than cold water?

yes


What determines the viscosity of magama?

temperature, silica content, and the amount of dissolved gases determine the viscosity of magma. For instance, if the magma is cold, has a high amount of silica and has lots of dissolved gases in it the viscosity will be very high.


Does coffee dissolved in cold water?

Somewhat, but it dissolves faster in warm water.


What happens to the solubility of oxygen in a pond as the pond decreases temperature?

As the pond decreases in temperature, the solubility of oxygen increases. This is because cold water can hold more dissolved gases than warm water. This can benefit aquatic organisms, as they rely on dissolved oxygen for survival.


Is helium more soluble in hot water or cold water?

cold water


Some power plants release hot waste water into nearby rivers or streams fish living in these waters sometimes die from lack of oxygen write a hypothesis to explain what has happened to the oxygen?

Because gases dissolved in water is different then solids dissolved in water, warm water holds less dissolved oxygen than cool or cold water Hot water released in rivers or streams lowers the dissolved oxygen concentrations. Since fish also needs oxygen to live, they can't survive because there is not enough dissolved oxygen in the water for them to live off of.


Is carbon monoxide more soluble in hot or cold water?

Gases are more soluble in cold water.


How does cold temperature affect the oxygen in cold water?

Oxygen and other gases can dissolve in water just like solid solutes (such as sugar or salt).The total amount of oxygen that can be dissolved in water depends on a number of factors, one of which being temperature. Unlike most solids, gases dissolve better in colder solvent. Colder water can hold more dissolved O2. Therefore, as water is warmed, the oxygen and other atmospheric gases come out of solution.You can see this happen if you take a sealed bottle of cold water and let it warm up slowly at room temperature. Disregarding the droplets of condensation that might form on the outside of the bottle, you can see tiny bubbles forming along the interior walls of the bottle.Marine biologists postulate that it is cold water's ability to hold greater concentrations of oxygen that allows polar marine species such as king crab and deep-sea jellyfish to grow so large.On a more practical note, this is also why you should open fizzy drinks when the liquid is cold to prevent losing more carbon dioxide (unless you enjoy flat soda).
