Answer:
Ion exchange.
Explanation:
One of the ways in which water can be treated is through the process known as ION EXCHANGE. Using this for treating water has to do basically with the transfer or say the exchange of ions.
Ion exchanges is done by exchanging ions which are considered as 'unfit' or contaminants by the ones that are "fit".
Ions from what is known as zeolite or resin is been exchanged with the ions in the water. Cations are exchanged with cations and anions are exchanged with anions.
NB: this method is a good method or removing contaminants that are ions but not contaminants that are not ions.
Answer:
A molecular compound is usually composed of two or more nonmetal elements. Molecular compounds are named with the first element first and then the second element by using the stem of the element name plus the suffix -ide.
I don't know how well known/accepted this is (it's in my textbook so I'm guessing it's right), but Sulphur has two forms - the alpha and beta forms ,apparently gamma sulphur exists as well.
The alpha form is rhombic, yellow in color and has a MP of 385.8 K. The beta form is colorless and has a MP of 393 K and is formed by melting rhombic sulphur and cooling it till a crust forms on top. Poke a hole and pour out the liquid inside and you get beta sulphur. The transition point is 369K - below it, alpha sulphur is stable and above it, beta sulphur is stable. Both have helped. I had to pull out an old textbook and that's something that I don't usually do.
