Describe the sources of water pollution in hydrological cycle.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bingel [31]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

The hydrological cycle is the continuous cycling of water between land, open water surfaces and the sea. This cycle begins with evaporation, sunlight evaporates water from the surface of earth, next condensation happens, the water absorbed is now used to form clouds, after these clouds are filled to the maximum, precipitation happens, this can be in the form of rainfall and snow, this cycle finalizes when the precipitation of water runs off the land and back into water sources.

Sources of water pollution:

  • <em>During precipitation: </em>Smog can be gathered in the atmosphere, during precipitation this pollution can turn into acid rain.
  • <em>During runoff:</em> After acid rain hits the ground this polluted water can run into water sources (lakes, rivers, reservoirs).To some extent rivers are a self-renewing resource, if a small quantity of pollution discharges in it the river can return to a clean, unpolluted condition, unfortunately, if the pollution is too big the renewing won't be possible, another problem is even though rivers get cleaned the pollution moves to the seas. Lakes are even more vulnerable to pollution, the flushing effect in these water bodies is less evident than in rivers.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Lera25 [3.4K]

The basic difference between thin layer chromatography (TLC) and paper chromatography (PC) is that, while the stationary phase in PC is paper, the stationary phase in TLC is a thin layer of an inert substance supported on a flat, unreactive surface. ... Paper chromatography is performed using paper.

Select all that apply. choose the two correct statements below. the elements of the halogen family are very reactive because: th
Harman [31]
Halogens are a group of elements consisting of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. In their ionic form, they have a superscript of -1, for example, chloride ion is Cl-1. These means that they readily accept one electron in order to achieve the Octet rule. The Octet rule states that each atom must contain 8 electrons in their valence shell for it to be stable. The most stable set of elements are the noble gases. Because they already fulfill the Octet rule, they no longer take part in reactions. Halogens are also very electronegative, meaning, they attract more electrons toward them. This is also a consequence of the Octet rule.

From the choices, the answers would be:
<span>they require only one electron to complete their outer shell
they have a high electronegativity</span>

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "False".

Explanation:

It is false that as carbon dioxide enters systemic blood, it causes more oxygen to dissociate from hemoglobin. Once an atom of oxygen binds to hemoglobin, hemoglobin change its shape and makes easier than a second and a third atom of oxygen binds towards it. This change in conformation makes no possible that carbon dioxide can cause that oxygen dissociates from hemoglobin.
