What else can I help you with?
Does keeping water flowing waste energy?
Water flowing, as in from a faucet? Yes. Aside from wasting water, the water has been purified at a water treatment plant (in most cases), which requires energy, and also must be pumped to the point of use (the faucet), which also requires energy.
Where does water have the most kinetic energy?
* When it's in a waterfall. * In a rapid river
Why does sea water taste like salt?
The most likely reason is that there is natural salt in the sea water. Salt is made by sand and chemicals eroding in the ocean. You may be familiar with the term "saltwater". It's probably best not to drink sea water.
What is the most force of erosive water?
The most forceful erosive water is typically found in the form of fast-flowing rivers, flash floods, or storm surges. These powerful water currents can erode and transport large amounts of sediment, rocks, and debris, shaping the landscape over time.
What kind of stream bed would cause the most friction?
A rocky stream bed with large, irregularly shaped rocks would cause the most friction for water flowing over it. The rough surface of the rocks creates turbulence and resistance, slowing down the water flow.
Is there carbon in water?
The actual compound water, or H2O does not contain carbon. However, most water contains small amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbonic acid (H2CO3) dissolved in it.
What is the most common substance dissolved in sea water?
The most common substance dissolved in sea water is salt, specifically sodium chloride. Other substances found in sea water include magnesium, calcium, and potassium ions, as well as various gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Which feature is most likely to have been formed by flowing water?
Canyons are formed by flowing water.
What is the most abundant dissolved gas in magma?
The most common dissolved gas in magma is water vapor, or H2O. Other important gases that may be present in magma and released during volcanic eruptions are carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide.
What reservoir is dissolved in carbon dioxide most abundant?
The most abundant reservoir of dissolved carbon dioxide is the Earth's oceans. Carbon dioxide is absorbed by seawater where it forms carbonic acid, contributing to ocean acidification. This process plays a crucial role in the global carbon cycle.
Which of the following is a major dissolved volatile constituent in both magmas and volcanic gases?
water, I had that question in my open book test and found the answer on the book.
Give One example of gas dissolved in liquid?
Any gas phase that does not contain a separate liquid or solid phase but does contain at least two distinct chemical substances is an example of a "gas dissolved in a gas"* Clean dry air is the most common example. ________________________ *It is unusual to describe gases as "dissolved" in each other; they are more often described simply as "mixed with" each other.
What does a bamboo plant eat?
Bamboo, like most plant species, does not exactly eat anything; it absorbs nutrients from the environment, chiefly water and minerals dissolved in the water, and carbon dioxide from the air.
What would you most likely find in a volcano?
In a volcano, you would most likely find molten rock (magma), gases such as water vapor and carbon dioxide, ash, and possibly lava flowing out of the vent.
Is carbon present in water?
yep. This answer is an addition to the answer posted above. No, pure water does not have carbon in it, hence the chemichal formula H2O meaning 2Hydrogen and one Oxygen atom per molecule, nowhere in there is carbon metioned because it's not in there. Regular water from your sink probably does have carbon in it as it is the most common atom in the biological world, and biological things always have the most contact with water, is carbon hence the carbon-based thing you probably hear about because life on Earth is based off of the carbon atom so carbon is definetly in there somewhere.
Which river has the most water flowing at its mouth?
The Amazon River.
Where is most of the earths carbon located and in what from?
Most of the Earth's carbon is located in the oceans, in the form of dissolved carbon dioxide and carbonate ions. Additionally, a significant amount of carbon is stored in rocks and sedimentary deposits, such as limestone and fossil fuels.
