Liquid water and water vapor are the two states of matter that appear in the hydrosphere, as they are both forms of water found in oceans, rivers, lakes, and the atmosphere. Solid water (ice) is also present in the hydrosphere in colder regions.

How much of the hydrosphere is gas?

The hydrosphere mainly consists of water in its liquid form, with only a small fraction existing as water vapor in the atmosphere. This water vapor is considered part of the gaseous component of the hydrosphere, but it makes up a very small percentage of the overall hydrosphere.


What are the similarities and differences between the hydrosphere and cryosphere?

Hydrosphere and Cryosphere are similar as they are the form of WATER. Hydrosphere is made up of all the Earth's water and Cryosphere is just part of the hydrosphere but it's only made up of frozen water such as glaciers or ice caps. Hope this helped!


Matter can be both created and destroyed?

Matter cannot be created or destroyed according to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. However, matter can undergo physical or chemical changes where its form or state can change, but the total amount of matter remains constant.


What are five facts about hydrosphere?

The hydrosphere is the sum total of all water on Earth, including oceans, rivers, lakes, glaciers, and groundwater. It plays a crucial role in regulating Earth's climate by absorbing and releasing heat energy. Over 97% of Earth's water is found in the oceans, with only a small percentage in freshwater sources. The hydrosphere is interconnected with other Earth systems such as the atmosphere, biosphere, and geosphere. Water in the hydrosphere is constantly in motion through processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff.


What are the five characteristics of matter?

1. Mass- very common to all matter. Mass does not change unless divided or removed to a body of matter. 2. Weight- it depends in the attraction of the pull of gravity thus, it changes from place to place. 3. Impenetrability- there are no two things that can occupy the same space. 4. Inertia- a matter that is at rest will remain at rest but can only be moved when external force is applied. 5. Porosity- states that matter has pores.

Is it true or false that ocean water makes up only a small part of the hydrosphere?

False, ocean water makes up 93% of the hydrosphere. Fresh water makes up 7% of the hydrosphere. The hydrosphere takes up 75% percent of the earth's surface.

Does pascal's principle apply to all states of matter?

Yes, Pascal's principle applies to all states of matter. It states that a change in pressure applied to a fluid is transmitted uniformly in all directions, regardless of the state of matter of the fluid.
