What else can I help you with?
Does salinity of water increased by evaporation and the formation of sea ice?
Salinity of water increase by evaporation.
What can causes a increase in the density of the ocean water?
the amount of salinity in the water and high temperatures
What happens to high salinity water wean it is in the same area as low salinity water?
What happens is, the high salinity water (hyper tonic solution), mixes with the low salinity water (Hypo tonic solution), and eventually the sodium and chloride ions will slowly move into the lower salt water, and create a uniformly salty water.
The salinity of the ocean?
You could increase the salinity of the ocean by adding salt or removing water (ie: by evaporation).
What processes increase the salinity of seawater?
runoff from land
Why does freezing and evaporation increase the salinity of ocean water?
Salt is dissolved in a smaller volume of water.
What can an increase in the density of the ocean water?
salt a decrease in temperature and an increasue in salinity
What is buoyancy and how does the salinity of water effects its buoyancy?
Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float in a fluid. The salinity of water affects buoyancy by increasing the density of the water. Higher salinity water is denser, which can increase the buoyant force on an object, making it easier for objects to float.
What would increase the salinity of sea water?
Decreasing the temperature, evaporating water, or adding more salt.
How is salinity related to temperature?
Salinity is related to temperature through the process of evaporation. When water evaporates, salt is left behind, increasing the salinity of the remaining water. Warmer temperatures can lead to higher rates of evaporation, which can in turn increase the salinity of the water. Conversely, colder temperatures can lower the rate of evaporation and decrease salinity.
Which pair of factors would cause salinity to increase?
evaporation and freezing of sea water
What can cause an increase in density of ocean water?
salt a decrease in temperature and an increasue in salinity
