Answer:

They add to its hardness.

Explanation:

Hello,

Water in ecosystems are likely to have dissolved metallic cations such those alkalies and alkaline earth metals form when present in aqueous systems, in this manner, more specifically speaking, calcium ions promote the formation of unsoluble salts such as calcium carbonate, which lead to the increase of the water's hardness that accounts for such cation's content into the water. Therefore, among the following options:

A. They reduce its pH.

B. They decrease its salinity.

C. They add to its hardness.

D. They increase its acidity.

The correct is C. They add to its hardness.

Best regards.

In the diagram, which letter represents the transition from liquid to gas?<br> B<br> A<br> D<br> C
lana66690 [7]
I got on here because I don't understand the question but I did my best to answer because I noticed you asked 3 days ago. IF I'm right the answer is D. My diagram shows
A at -50 °C
B at 0 °C
C at 50 °C
D at 100 °C (gas to liquid or liquid to gas)
And E at 150 °C
So I hope I'm right because I'm answering the same question.

A student observes that water in a pot on a burner becomes hotter explain how energy is conserved in the situation
Daniel [21]

  • The water in the pot becomes hotter as a result of heat transfer.

  • <em>Energy can be transferred from a region to another , but there will still the same overall amount of energy</em> ( energy conservation)

  • When a pot containing water  is  placed on the stove and  heat is applied with the burner, there is a flow of heat from the burner to the water.

  • Heat will be transferred from the burner to the pot, then there will be transferred of heat from the pot to the water, the molecules there in the water  will be energized as a result of the heat transfer until the boiling point  is  reached.

  • Energy transfer can take place in three form, this could be conduction, radiation or convention.

  • Convention which is a cyclical process is the one that occurs in fluids only so as a result of convection , the water at the bottom will be heated and the molecules start moving and it will rise till it get to the water at the top of the pot.

<em>Therefore, the water is heated as a result of heat transfer.</em>

Which statement about relative motion is not true?
AURORKA [14]

Explanation:

laws of physics which apply when you are at rest on the earth also apply when you are in any reference frame which is moving at a constant velocity with respect to the earth. For example, you can toss and catch a ball in a moving bus if the motion is in a straight line at constant speed.
