What is the difference between glacier water and geyser water?
Glacier water forms from melted snowfall. Geyser water is groundwater that reaches heated rock underground and is thrown back to the surface when some of it turns to steam.(Both Crystal Geyser and Glacier are trademark names for drinking water.)
How is a body of water formed by glacier movement?
well, a body of water is formed by glacier movement because while the glacier is moving parts of it is falling in the ocean. The glaciers are much colder then the water when the glacier falls water is formed in the water because of the melting ice.
Is a glacier a land form of body of water?
A glacier is a land form as it is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land. It is not considered a body of water, but rather a type of land feature formed from accumulated snow and ice.
Why is ice in a glacier concidered to be a mineral but water from a glacier is not?
well, you see, glacier ice or solid ice is a mineral because it is in a naturally solid form, and it is natural, not man-made whatsoever, and has a crystalline structure. Water on the otherhand is usually a liquid and has minerals in it; you can't freeze water and say it is a mineral-that would be man-made.
Are water and shampoo both pure liquids?
Water is a pure liquid as it contains only H2O molecules. Shampoo, on the other hand, is a mixture of different ingredients including water, surfactants, fragrances, and other chemicals, making it not a pure liquid.
What are similarities of geyser and glacier?
None. Except that both words start with "g" and end with "r".
What are the factors that influence salinaty differences?
Temperature, latitude, ocean currents, glacier( pure water) etc are the factors affecting salinity difference..
Is a glacier a waterbody?
A glacier is a water reservoir and is not considered a water body.
How is water pure?
Fairly pure, though the snow that formed it can contain pollutants, and microorganisms and ice worms live in glacier water. Despite being purer than, say, muddy creek water, you should always filter and treat any water, including glacial melt water.
Why cant you use glaciers for fresh waters?
Glacier water runoff contributes to our freshwater rivers and streams. Native American people used, and in some places current towns, cities and states use this glacial river water to produce clean drinking water for city populations. (Or bottle it and sell it as "Pure Glacier Drinking Water"!
What is the difference between glacier water and geyser water?
Glacier water forms from melted snowfall. Geyser water is groundwater that reaches heated rock underground and is thrown back to the surface when some of it turns to steam.(Both Crystal Geyser and Glacier are trademark names for drinking water.)
Why do ice cubes formed from water of a glacier freeze at a high temperature than ice cubes formed from water of an underground aquifer?
Here's a hint: glacier ice comes from precipitation, aquifer water comes from a hole in the ground where minerals are. Ever hear of colligative properties? Specifically, freezing point depression?
Is water from a glacier more dense than ocean water?
The water from a melted glacier is less dense than the water of the seas.
Why is ice in a glacier consider to be a mineral but water from a glacier is not?
By definition a mineral must be solid. Ice is solid. Water is not.
Is water from glaciers drinkable?
The water from glaciers is drinkable. When drinking glacier water, the water must be filtrated first. Filtration of glacier water can be done with a coffee filter.
What is the front of a glacier?
The front of a glacier is called the terminus or snout. It is where the glacier meets the surrounding environment, such as water or land.
What is hotter a glacier or boiling water?
Boiling water.
