What type of mixture is seperated by effusion and condensation?
The type of mixture is separated by effusion and condensation is gaseous. Filtration separates solids from liquids by using a porous barrier.
What are some examples of a solid solute and a liquid solvent?
a solvent has a greater amount than a solute..
How can solubility be affected?
Factors affeccting the solubilty are:1. the nature of solute/solvent (chemical composition, polarity)2. temperature3. pressure4. stirring5. surface area of the solute6. some added compounds7. amount of the solute 8. the geometry of the beaker
How do solids dissolve in liquids?
By being heated up and turning into either a gas or a liquid.
Does warm water have higher salinity than cold water?
Water salinity describes the amount of salty minerals dissolved in a sample of water. It would therefore make no difference whether the water is warm or cold, since you would have the same amount of salt dissolved in the water per cm3 of water. Salinity would change if you added more water, or if the water was so hot that some of it evaporates, leaving all the dissolved solids behind, but decreasing the amount of water it is dissolved in.
The removal of dissolved solids from seawater?
Desalination.
The measure of the amount of solids dissolved in ocean water is what?
salinity
What is a measure of the amount of dissolved salts and other solids in a given amount of liquid?
Salinity is the measure of sodium or salt in liquid.
Is a seawater a element mixture compound?
It's a solution; water with dissolved solids.
How do freshwater and saltwater compare in terms of their dissolved solids?
The amount of dissolved solids is less in freshwater.
What is the difference between total dissolved solids and total suspended solids?
total dissolved solids is how much of the solid is dissolved in the liquid, while suspended total suspended solids is the amount of the solid floating in the liquid. e.g. if you had a solution with both and you filtered the solution then evaporated out the liquid, the solids that you filtered out would be the suspended solids, and the the solids remaining after evaporating the liquid out would be the disolved solids.
When water evporates does the dissolved solids in the water also evaporate?
The dissolved solids are not evaporated.
What is the cycle of the boiler?
Cycles are a measure of the dissolved solids in the boiler water in relation to the dissolved solids in the feedwater. For instance, if the measure of chlorides in the feedwater sample is 5 ppm and the chlorides in the boiler water sample is 50 ppm then the boiler water has been cycled ten times, 50/5 =10. That means that all of the water in the boiler (plus all the water that has been blown down) has been evaporated completely ten times, and replaced by the same amount of feedwater. Steam does not carry the dissolved solids out of the boiler, they remain behind, these are controlled with water treatment and a continuous blowdown (bottom blowoffs control or remove suspended solids).
What are the solutions of solids dissolved in solids called?
Alloys.
Which two dissolved solids in ocean water occur in the greatest amount?
Probably sodium chloride and calcium carbonate.
What is the meaning of cycles in boiler?
Cycles are a measure of the dissolved solids in the boiler water in relation to the dissolved solids in the feedwater. For instance, if the measure of chlorides in the feedwater sample is 5 ppm and the chlorides in the boiler water sample is 50 ppm then the boiler water has been cycled ten times, 50/5 =10. That means that all of the water in the boiler (plus all the water that has been blown down) has been evaporated completely ten times, and replaced by the same amount of feedwater. Steam does not carry the dissolved solids out of the boiler, they remain behind, these are controlled with water treatment and a continuous blowdown (bottom blowoffs control or remove suspended solids).
What is solids irregular shape measured by?
take a cylindrical measuring thing and measure the amount of water in it then drop the item in then measure that amount and subtract the first amount from the second
