Explanation:
Aquifers are porous and permeable formations that stores ground water. The ground water system is made up of mostly fresh water.
- An aquifer acts as a reserve for ground water in the environment.
- By passing through different formations, water that recharges them are purified.
- This makes them fresh and mostly free from salt intrusion
An aquifer is able to store this fresh water and it is is good prospect for sourcing ground water.

Answer:
An atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.
For example,
Al atom has 13 protons and 13 electrons. The number of positive and negative charge is equal thus it will be neutral atom.
While the atom of Al which have 13 proton and 10 electron is not neutral. The positive charge is greater than negative by 3. Which means 3 electrons are lose by Al atom and form cation "Al⁺³".
Thus an atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)
Answer:
Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS
Explanation:
The lattice energy of ionic species depends on the relative sizes of ions in the ionic compounds. As the size of ions increases, the lattice energy decreases and vice versa.
When the size of the anions are the same, the lattice energy now depends on the relative sizes of the cations. Therefore, since all the compounds are sulphides and the order of magnitude of ionic sizes is: Li^+ < Na^+ < K^+ < Cs^+.
Therefore, the order of decrease in lattice energy is; Li2S> Na2S> K2S> CsS
