Water is generally considered to be polluted with oil once it has about 10 mg/L of oil in it (essentially 10 litres of oil per million litres of water). One litre of oil therefore pollutes 100,000 litres of water (100m3)
Rain water that falls from the sky should not have oil in it, unless the sky is polluted. However, the rain water that lands in a barrel, or some other container, could have oil in it, because the ground is contaminated with oil, or the barrel (container) has oil in it. Most rain water that falls from the sky is clean, but, when it lands, it can get polluted with oil. Acid raid is another problem with rain water, which occurs again because the sky overhead is polluted.
The ocean is polluted due to human activities such as dumping waste, runoff from land carrying pollutants, oil spills, and plastic pollution. These activities can harm marine life, disrupt ecosystems, and impact water quality. Efforts to reduce pollution and promote sustainability are needed to protect the health of the oceans.
Obviously, pollution is harmful towards living things. One example of pollution is oil spill. The oil floats on water and the fish that are coming up to the surface of the water to get air will suffocate. So, if the marine life dies just because of oil spill, most of the animals in the sea will be extinct. Just imagine eating fish and chips with just the chips. The pollution in the water MAY also affect the air around it, suffocating land animals including humans.
The average heating value of heating oil is around 138,500 Btu per gallon. Since there are approximately 3.785 liters in a gallon, one liter of heating oil would contain about 36,600 Btu.
Oil and water do not react chemically; they are immiscible due to differences in polarity. Oil is nonpolar and water is polar, so they do not mix and form separate layers instead.
A liter of water IS a kilogram. Since oil is lighter, it's about .625 kg
Three ways water can be polluted by are litter, gaseous emissions and oil spills
by the oil
A liter of water weighs more than a liter of oil because the density of water is higher than that of oil. The weight of a liter of water is around 1 kilogram, whereas the weight of a liter of oil can vary depending on the type of oil.
No. Oil is less dense than water, so 1 liter of oil will weigh less than 1 liter of water.
Three ways water can be polluted by are litter, gaseous emissions and oil spills
Water is generally considered polluted by oil once the oil concentration exceeds 10mg/L. All considerations of oil density minimized, this is about 1 quart per 25,000 gallons of water
the water, the animals and since that in polluted, the water we drink, the water we wash with, the rain, and can cause deathly global warming and deathly oil spills
Oil is slightly less dense than water and a litre of water weighs a kilogram. It would be less than a kilogram, but by how much depends on the type of oil.
Animals and plants die because of the oil and the sea water has been polluted with oil.
garbage and oil spills.
whatever polluted it. PLEASE RECCOMEND ME Rangutan says: Pollution in water may include: * plastic bags * salts * poisons * oil * chemicals * fertilizers
