Highly porous and permeable

Explanation:

Compared to other types of rock layers, an aquifer is highly porous and permeable.

Aquifers are always the target when prospecting for ground water in a formation.

  • Porosity is the amount of void spaces in a rock.
  • Aquifers are highly porous .
  • Permeability is the inter-connectivity of the void spaces and their ability to transmit fluids.
  • Aquifers have very high permeability compared to other rock types.

In terms of permeability and porosity, an aquifer is higher porous and permeable.

At what temperature does water exist as a solid???
DaniilM [7]
Water exists as a solid at or below 0 degree Celsius.

At 0 degree Celsius, water can go through a phase change, either freezing or melting, depending whether energy is given or taken away. If the temperature is below 0, water should exist as solid as the temperature is lower than its melting point. If the temperature is right at 0 degree, the water can partially be solid and liquid at the same time, during phase change.

Therefore, water exists as solid at or below 0 degree Celsius.
