What does solvent do in the water cycle A rain has bits of rocks in it B hail is hard C rivers stop running D minerals are washed into the sea?
In the water cycle, solvents like water play a crucial role in transporting minerals and nutrients. As rain falls, it can dissolve various minerals from rocks and soil, which are then carried into rivers and ultimately washed into the sea. This process helps maintain the balance of ecosystems and supports aquatic life. Therefore, the most relevant option is D: minerals are washed into the sea.
What else can I help you with?
Why is it important that the sample spots are not below the solvent level when the filter paper is first placed in the developing chamber?
By placing the spot above the level of the solvent in the beaker, you slow the flow of solvent which results in improved separation of the components in the spot. If you placed it below the level of the solvent in the beaker, the solvent would just flow at a much faster rate and instead of separating the components in the spot, they would simply be washed away.
How can pollen be transferred by water?
By pollen being washed away down rivers to other plants that may feed from the river water
Why is sediment deposited in coastal areas?
The sediment is washed into the sea by runoff from the land, especially by rivers and streams. Most of this sediment does not travel very far offshore before settling.
What is the solute and solvent of detergent?
Detergent is compound mostly consisting of stearate ions of sodium or potassium. For example:-Sodium Stearate(C17H35Na). When it is dissolved in water, it forms a solution. Here, the detergent is solute and water is solvent
Why are oceans salty but the great lakes are not salty?
The Great Lakes have an outlet: The Saint Lawrence. The reason why most lakes are not salty is because they have an outlet so the minerals do not accumulate. On top of that, they are well above sea level, so there is no chance of saltwater intrusion.
What minerals dissolve in sea water?
They are washed down by rivers and added by rainfall. They also leach into the seawater from the sea bed
Why is the recovered crystals must be washed with cold solvent?
cold solvent cleans the crystals - without dissolving them.
How did southern and northern Mesopotamia differ in terms of soil fertility?
The headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers were in mountainous territory. The rivers washed silt down the rivers and fertile land acumulated in the river basins, replenished each year by the soul washed down the rivers by the rains in the northern mountains.
Grains of sand are washed into rivers and oceans through the process of?
Erosion
How do trees prevent the banks of rivers from being washed away?
by holding it onto its place
What are the steps when minerals deposit by the beach?
Its called erosion. A rock at the top of a mountain , can contain minerals or ores. Rain, wind and other factors erode the rock leaving the ore exposed, this eventually gets washed down the mountain, through rivers streams and eventually onto the shores or banks where they can be collected without mining.
What effects do dyes have on the environment?
When the left over dye gets washed away it spreads to rivers and pollutes them.
Can diamonds be found under water?
Yes, alluvial stones, washed away from their kimberlite pipes by rivers, can be found under water, in rivers and in the sea where the river empties.
Where is a turtles habitat?
They are found in lakes, rivers, shallow parts of the ocean and sometimes just washed up on the beach.
Did the ice age cause salt to form in the oceans?
No. Salt is washed into the ocean from rivers and picked up from rocks.
Where does the rivers load come from?
Sediment derived from the weathering of rocks, and run-off from the land, being washed into the water.
