Cohesion is water sticking to water. adhesion is water sticking to another thing, think of it as you're adding something to the water molecules. add-hesion
Answer:
The oceans are present on the 70 percent of the world but only 5 percent of the total oceans are explored yet.
There are many reasons of this problem but the most important is the hydrostatic pressure.
Hydrostatic pressure can be described as the pressure or weight exerted by the water on the object.
With every increase in 10 meters the pressure increase by 6.47kg (14.27lbs) each square inch of surface.
Due to extreme pressure, oxygen level in the cells of body fluctuates and person becomes unstable and can become unconscious.
It rains or snows outside (precipitation)
Water that forms from a mixture of heat and cold (condensation)
The sun heats up the water and it turns to vapors and goes into the air
(Evaporation)
Hi there!
<u>Electronegativity</u> is the concept of how likely an atom is to attract the shared molecules in one of these bonds to itself. We know the molecule water is made up of two hydrogens and one oxygen. The electronegativity of hydrogen is 2.2, and oxygen 3.4. An <u>ionic bond</u> needs at least a difference in electronegativity of 1.6. As the difference is less than that, we can say that water is a covalent molecule. This then wipes out choice B, because it is not ionic, and C, as we have seen it is actually covalent.
Now, we can see the difference in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen is still 1.2. This means that while it is not at the point for there to be an ionic bond, there is still a difference in attraction, where the electrons will tend to favor the oxygen more and 'hang around it' more. As electrons are <u>negatively charged</u><em><u>,</u></em> this means that the oxygen will gain a slightly negative charge. This then makes the molecule polar, because it now has a charge within the molecule. This means we have our answer, choice D.
In terms of hydrophobic molecules - they tend to be ones without a charge. (If you're interested in this kind of stuff, I'd search hydrophobic up, and possibly also look into hydrogen bonds).
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask me any other questions you have about this specific problem.
Answer:
Microbial mats.
Explanation:
Microbes formed sheets that were able to capture layers of sediment is called microbial mats. These mats of microbes provide good fossil evidence to the researchers. These microbial mats consist of bacteria and archaea which is considered the earliest form of life on earth. These microbial mats grow on moist places as compared to dry environment. About 3,500 million years ago, these microbes are the most important members of earth and maintainers of the ecosystems.
