Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Salinity is defined as measure of all the salts dissolved in water.

Salinity of the ocean gets effected by the temperature:

  • When the temperature increases the the density of the water decrease by density of the ocean water decrease.
  • When the temperature decreases the density of the water increases by which density if the ocean water ls increases.

So, in order to increase the density of the ocean water temperature should be decreases.

How does water’s ability to form hydrogen bonds explain why ice is less dense than liquid water?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

As water freezes, a crystalline structure preserved by hydrogen bonding is formed by water molecules. Less dense than liquid water is solid water, or ice. Ice is less dense than water since molecules are pulled farther apart by the direction of hydrogen bonds, which decreases density.

Which of the following best defines the internal energy of a system?
Anarel [89]
 <span>In thermodynamics, the internal energy of a thermodynamic system, or a body with well-defined boundaries, denoted by U, or sometimes E, is the total of the kinetic energy due to the motion of molecules (translational, rotational, vibrational) and the potential energy associated with the vibrational and electric energy of atoms within molecules or crystals. It includes the energy in all the chemical bonds, and the energy of the free, conduction electrons in metals.</span>
