It depends! On what you say? Well, as an example it depends on the temperature of the sea water. The colder the water the greater the amount of DO can be contained. It depends on where the sea water is located; e.g., sea water at the mouth of the Amazon River (or at the mouth of most any river emptying into the oceans) for the fresh water from the river dilutes the salt content of the sea water there.

What happens when you put oxygen into water?
Well, depending on the type of "Bleach" which is a super relative term anywho, you'll release the active agent. Chlorine bleach, will bond the Cl atoms with Oxygen. Enjoy Chlorine Gas. If its Oxygen based bleach, you'll just pass out. Either way, I wouldn't want to be in the room with you when you tried it.
How much does a gallon of sperm weigh?
== Probably close to the weight of water. 8.34 lbs per gallon.
How does algae bloom affect dissolved oxygen?
Nutrients remove oxygen from water either by direct oxidation or through being consumed by plants or animals (bacteria). The potential for oxygen removal is measured by: BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) measures the amount of oxygen that bacteria can remove, COD (chemical oxygen demand) measures how much oxygen can be removed by chemical processes, and TOD (Total Oxygen Demand) is the total of all oxygen removed biochemically and chemically. Generally, colder water can hold more dissolved oxygen than warmer water. If you make a rough nomograph and plot the same amount of dissolved oxygen for a cold and warm temperature, you will see that the cold water is less saturated (can hold more oxygen) than the more saturated warm water. Nutrients effect oxygen levels indirectly in a process called eutrophication. If the nutrient happens to be a limiting nutrient (such as phosphate in lakes), then the carrying capacity of the photosynthetic organisms is raised. This allows for a population growth, commonly seen as algal blooms. The population of decomposers is then boosted too, since they feed (decay) on the phytoplankton/algae. As more and more organic material settles to the benthic zone, decomposers increase and need more oxygen for respiration. This results in oxygen depletion in the ecosystem, making life for marine animals such as fish difficult/impossible.
If water H2O is polar and oxygen O2 non-polar how can there be dissolved oxygen in water?
The simple answer is that most everything happens at least a little bit. The reason why is EQUILIBRIUM. You are correct---water is polar and oxygen is non-polar. The water molecules have great hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions with each other that the oxygen molecules cannot replace, and so it will take energy or ENTHALPY for oxygen to mix its way into the water. So the process is ENDOTHERMIC and hence unfavorable. However, when you dissolve oxygen in water, you get disorder---something that scientists quantify by talking about a solution's ENTROPY. It is favorable for entropy to increase, and in this case the entropy of the water solution would go up if you were to be able to squeeze some water molecules in there. So entropy and enthalpy are at odds for this reaction. Enthalpy is unfavorable, entropy is favorable. In situations like that systems will reach a state of equilibrium in which the reaction partially occurs. How much will depend on the relative sizes of the entropy and enthalpy changes.
Why does groundwater have more dissolved substances than surface water?
Groundwater typically has more dissolved substances because it spends more time in contact with rocks and soil, allowing for more minerals to be dissolved. In contrast, surface water flows faster over the ground and may not have as much opportunity to pick up as many dissolved substances. Additionally, groundwater is often affected by underground sources like aquifers, which can introduce additional dissolved substances.
When water temperature increases what will the dissolved oxygen content do?
The amount of dissolved oxygen decreases when water temperature increases. Warm water is unable to dissolve as much oxygen gas.
How much oxgen is in water?
8/9 by weight, of water, is oxygen, as part of the water molecules itself. Apart from that, there may be a variable amount of oxygen gas dissolved in the water. This dissolved oxygen is the only oxygen that can be breathed by certain living creatures, such as fish.
What happens if there is too much oxygen in seawater?
Oxygen in the water is called "dissolved oxygen" because quite simply it is just that. The air naturally diffuses into the water and can reach equilibrium with the water. It is virtually impossible to get too much dissolved oxygen in the water because the excess will convert back to gas and bubble out of the water like so much soda water when you pour it out of the bottle. This said, there is no concern for too much dissolved oxygen in the water. Concern arises when dissolved oxygen levels get too low. When this happens more sensitive plants and animals become weak or die. As a side note, weather, temperature, and salinity all effect dissolved oxygen levels. Faster moving water contains more dissolved oxygen because it has more contact with the air than still water. Cold, fresh water holds more oxygen than warm or salty water. This would mean a cold, fast moving, fresh water stream or river would contain the highest amounts of dissolved oxygen, and the salinity of the ocean water would not be ideal for holding as much dissolved oxygen.
How much percent of oxygen does the ocean have?
The ocean typically contains about 21% oxygen dissolved in the water. This dissolved oxygen is essential for marine life to survive and thrive. Oceanic oxygen levels can vary based on factors such as temperature, salinity, and the presence of organisms that consume oxygen.
How much amount of dissolved oxygen present in pure water?
Pure water typically contains about 8-10 mg/L of dissolved oxygen at 20 degrees Celsius. This amount can vary based on temperature, salinity, and atmospheric conditions.
How much oxygen gas can be produced by electrolysis of one gallon of water?
The chemical formula for water is H2O. In one gallon of water, there are 210 moles. This means that breaking apart the water will release 420 moles of hydrogen gas. This is equivalent to 4710 liters of gas.
Is iron rust in distilled water?
Yes, provided there is oxygen dissolved, which will be the case if the distilled water is open to the air, a rusting reaction will take place. It will be slow. The reaction is much quicker when there are dissolved salts.
Why is there more oxygen present in salt water than in fresh?
The amount of oxygen disolved in water may vary. The capacity of water to absorb oxygen (which is not necessarily how much is actually absorbed) depends mainly on the temperature. I don't think the water being salty makes much of a difference.
Does air or water have more oxygen?
Air has more oxygen compared to an equal volume of water. Air is composed of approximately 21% oxygen, while water contains dissolved oxygen, but in much lower concentrations, usually around 5-8 parts per million.
How can too much nutrients be pollution in water?
Nutrients in lakes can cause eutrophication. What happens is that the nutrients cause the algae to grow excessively. As it dies, bacteria consume it using up large amounts of oxygen dissolved in the water. Aquatic creatures that rely on dissolved oxygen (fish) die.
How much sugar can be dissolved in a gallon of water?
The amount of sugar that can be dissolved in a gallon of water depends on temperature and the type of sugar. At room temperature, approximately 2-3 pounds of granulated sugar can dissolve in a gallon of water. However, this amount increases significantly with heat; for example, at higher temperatures, nearly 5 pounds may dissolve. It's essential to note that saturation points can vary slightly based on specific conditions.

i would answer it if i could but it doesnt really make much sense.what do you mean?
