Answer:The process of purifying sea water into fresh water is called Desalination, which essentially means removing the salt from water.

There are two main industrial size process for desalination, one is thermal desalination which is distillation using heat and the other is with Reverse Osmosis or RO using water pressure through membranes.

In some places they’re doing inverse osmosis, which needs lots and lots of energy, maybe being in a sunny place.

Evaporation is a also a good method for removing salt from sea water but that is used only in low consumption of water.Israel is currently using the desalination process successfully and there is a plant that I read about near San Diego, CA.

Here some methods are help to removing salt from sea water

Turning Salt water into Drinking water using Solar power

The MIT team's this new desalination technology "electrodialysis" is comparatively less expensive.

Graphene Sieve turns Seawater into Drinking water

A new research shows graphene can filter common salts from water to make it safe to drink.The new findings could lead to affordable desalination technology.

Graphene-oxide membranes have attracted considerable attention as promising candidates for new filtration technologies. Now the much sought-after development of making membranes capable of sieving common salts has been achieved.

New research demonstrates the real-world potential of providing clean drinking water for millions of people who struggle to access adequate clean water sources.

Explanation: Thanks and good luck.

The Hubble Space Telescope orbits Earth and sends images of distant objects. Why does Hubble form better images than the optical
postnew [5]

Answer: option c: It orbits beyond the Earth's atmosphere to avoid scattering of light.

Explanation:

Hubble space telescope orbits Earth and sends images of distant objects. The images formed by Hubble are better than the optical telescopes used on land. This is because the Hubble telescope is a space telescope. Light from the distant objects when reaches the land telescopes transmits through atmosphere, where scattering occurs. Some the light rays bounce back. This is avoided by the space telescope Hubble.
