Why does fresh water float on top of saltwater?
Fresh water is less dense than saltwater because it has fewer dissolved ions. This lower density causes fresh water to float on top of saltwater, which is denser. The two types of water do not mix easily due to their difference in density and composition.
Does composition mean the same as synthesis?
It does not mean the same but are both in a way related.Composition is what a material is made ofSynthesis is to make a material/compund artifichallyExamples.The composition of salt water is fresh water and 4% salt.We can synthesize/make salt water by mixing fresh water and appropriate amount of salt.Many medicines we use today are cheaper to synthesize.
What are the three sources that contribute to to the chemical composition of fresh and salt water?
Sources that make contributions to the chemical composition of fresh and salt water can be discovered just by thinking about the cycle of water. Precipitation falls and picks up things in the atmosphere. Gases are dissolved in that water as well. The water collects and drains via streams and rivers, and any chemicals that come from geologic or biologic sources that the water passes over can be collected by the water. We might also consider the contribution of human activity to the chemical composition of the water. Agricultural runoff, dumping and the things dissolved in waste water (depending on the amount of treatment) also add to the list of the chemical composition of the water. Certainly all things dissolved in any river are added to the chemical contents of salt water as that fresh water drains into the sea.
