\boxed{{\text{C}}{\text{. Aeration}}} is a method of purifying water.

Further Explanation:

A. Adding iodine

Iodine is a mineral which is found in food and is essential for body. It is important in both radioactive and non-radioactive forms. Iodine, in its elemental state is used as a disinfectant. Its deficiency can lead to mental disabilities in children and less formation of thyroid hormone.

B. Freezing

When a substance gets converted from its liquid to a solid state, it is called freezing. This is done by lowering the temperature of the substance below its freezing point. For example, ice is formed from water by the process of freezing.

C. Aeration

In this technique, air is allowed to dissolve in the liquid. This is done by passing air through aeration turbines. Due to this process, water and air are brought closer to each other and as a result, dissolved gases are removed from the water. It is the initial step at the water treatment plant. It is also useful to remove dissolved metals via oxidation, followed by filtration.

D. Fixation

When a specimen is allowed to fix with chemicals so as to avoid autolysis during the preparation of the specimen, the process is called fixation. It has to be carried out just after the removal of tissues to avoid autolysis.

Therefore aeration is used to purify water.

Earth has approximately 600,000,000 meters of coastline. If we assume this entire length of coastline has sandy beaches 60 meter
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

7 and 11

Explanation:

The amount of sand on the beaches can be found using this formula:

volume (m3) = length (m) × width (m) × depth (m)

(6 × 108 m) × 60 m × 20 m = 7 × 1011 m3

Therefore, there would be a total of 7 × 1011 cubic meters of sand on the beaches.

92 grams of ethanol,C2H5OH, is dissolved in 1 liter of solution. Determine the molarity (M)
const2013 [10]

Answer:  1.997 M

Explanation:

molarity = moles of solute/liters of solution or M = \frac{mol}{L}

first we have to find our moles of solute (mol), which you can find by dividing the mass of solute by molar mass of solute

mass of solute: 92 g

molar mass of solute: 46.08 g/mol

let's plug it in:

\frac{92 g}{46.08 g/mol} = 1.997 mol

next, we plug it into our original equation:

\frac{1.997mol}{1 L} = 1.997 M
