The North Sea could have a higher % of dissolved gases because of the fact that it could be colder there. the colder the water the more dissolved gases there are.

Does a smaller rock a have higher or lower percentage of surface area than a larger rock?

It depends on percentage related to WHAT! You cannot express surface area as a percentage of volume since the dimensions are different. So the only percentage you can have is the suface area of the smaller rock as a percentage of the surface area of the larger rock. In that case, the answer, not surprisingly, is that the smaller rock has the smaller percentage surface area.It depends on percentage related to WHAT!

What brings greater concentration of dissolved nutrients to the ocean surface?

Upwelling


Why does a river with rapids contain more dissolved oxygen?

The more water moves the more it has a big surface of contact with the air with is rich in oxygen and therefore oxygenates the water. Also the movement makes that the deeper waters have a chance to get to the surface, exposing to the air part of water that would not be exposed otherwise.

What are surfactants?

A substance that tends to reduce the surface tension of a liquid in which it is dissolved.


Does hydrodynamic cavitation micro bubbles contain dissolved O2?

Yes, It contains all the gasses that occur in the liquid. the amount of dissolved gases effects the formation of cavitation bubbles along with viscosity, temperature and presence of a nucleation surface. A typical cavitation bubble is about 1 million water molecules in size prior to collapsing, very small.

When magma reaches the surface its dissolved gas content increases True or False?

False! The reduction in pressure causes the gasses to exsolve (come out of solution) and escape into the atmosphere, so the dissolved gas content of a magma reduces when it reaches the surface.
