If freshwater and seawater meet at the mouth of a river which one sinks and why?
Seawater is more dense than freshwater. Therefore the seawater would sink lower than the freshwater. Ships do indeed stay higher in seawater because of the higher density or specific gravity of seawater over freshwater
What is the scientific difference between seawater and freshwater?
Seawater has a higher concentration of salts and minerals compared to freshwater. Seawater also has a higher density and freezes at lower temperatures than freshwater. Additionally, seawater has a higher pH and different composition of dissolved gases compared to freshwater.
Is bluefish a freshwater animal or a seawater animal?
its a seawater fish
Seawater is typically denser than freshwater due to seawater's?
Salt
Why seawater lighter than river water?
sea water is less denser than river water.
Is a goldfish a seawater freshwater or tropical fish?
Goldfish are freshwater, not saltwater.
What is the density of wood in ocean and freshwater?
It is 787.975 in seawater and freshwater's is 211.
Which is heavier iron filings or seawater?
Iron fillings are heavier.
Seawater is different to freshwater because it contain?
higher levels of salt and other minerals, making it more saline than freshwater. Seawater also has different organisms and ecosystems adapted to its unique conditions compared to freshwater environments. Additionally, seawater has a higher density and freezing point compared to freshwater.
Why Seawater is typically denser than freshwater?
Seawater is denser than freshwater because it contains dissolved salts and minerals, such as sodium and chloride, which add weight to the water molecules. These dissolved substances increase the overall mass of seawater and make it denser than freshwater.
Why are the concentrations of metals higher in freshwater than seawater?
The concentrations of metals are typically higher in freshwater than in seawater because freshwater systems have less capacity to dilute or transport metals compared to seawater. In freshwater systems, metals can be sourced from natural weathering of rocks and human activities, and they accumulate as there is less water volume to disperse them. Conversely, in the vast volume of seawater, metals are more dispersed and diluted.
The water in estuariers is?
brackish (a combination of seawater and freshwater)
