What are the two factors that control the concentration of salt in seawater?
Well there may be more than two. The rivers flow into the sea, thus diluting the salt, but salt carried by the river will increase the salt content. Salt may be removed by precipitation, but only if the concentration becomes great.
What does salinity mean in science?
Salinity is the measure of salt concentration in water
Concentration of salt in sea water?
The average salinity of seawater is about 35 parts per thousand or 3.5%.
What does salt concentration mean?
Salt content is the percentage of salt in water. Most ocean water has a 35 ppt salt content. That is, 35 grams of salt for every 1000 grams of water. This could also be written as 3.5%
What effects does the amount of salt have on floatability of an egg?
The larger the salt concentration in the water, the more quickly the egg will achieve flotation. Adding salt to the water will cause the egg to float.
What is the salt concentration in dirty water?
there is no salt concentration.
How salt concentration affect the rate of enzyme reaction?
Each enzyme has an optimal salt concentration. Changes in the salt concentration may also denature enzymes.
What if a semipermeable membrane has a 2 percent salt solution on one side a 15 percent salt solutionWhat will mostly occur?
Osmosis of water from a low concentration of salt to a high concentration
What happens to the concentration of salt in a salt water solution as it is being boiled?
Salt does not boil away at approx. 100 Celsius. The water evaporates causing the concentration of salt to increase.
Do people sink or float in salt water?
depends on the concentration of salt. The higher the concentration of salt the more likely you are to float.
What is the the difference between the salt concentration of hot water and the salt concentration of cold water?
The same
What kind of water has a salt concentration of about 3.5 percent?
Water with a salt concentration of about 3.5% is typically found in seawater.
What are the two factors that control the concentration of salt in seawater?
Well there may be more than two. The rivers flow into the sea, thus diluting the salt, but salt carried by the river will increase the salt content. Salt may be removed by precipitation, but only if the concentration becomes great.
How is concentration of salt measured?
The concentration of salt in water is measured with a salinometer or by the chemical determination of chlorine or sodium.
Does the concentration of salt decrease when water evaporates?
No, the concentration of salt remains the same even if water evaporates. However, the amount of water decreases, causing the remaining water to have a higher concentration of salt.
IS WATER with less salt more concentrated than water with more salt?
Tricky question. Are you talking about the concentration of salt in the water or the concentration of water in the salt? It is unusual to talk about the concentration of water unless it is dissolved in another solvent like alcohol. Pure water has a constant concentration of 55.6 mol/dm3. Water is more concentrated without salt in it.
What is the method to calculate the concentration of the salt solution in parts per million?
To calculate the concentration of a salt solution in parts per million (ppm), divide the mass of the salt by the total mass of the solution and then multiply by 1,000,000. This will give you the concentration of the salt in ppm.
