Answer:

Option B, The neutral nature of water changes due to mixing of various salts, bases, and acids, thus changing its pH.

Explanation:

Water obtained from natural sources like underground water, sea water, rain water etc are not neutral in nature. This is so because water extracted from all these sources contains several dissolved salts/chemical components which either reduces or increases their pH.

The ground water contains lot of dissolved carbonates and bicarbonates (as it remains in contact of rocks beneath the earth) due which it becomes extremely hard and has a pH greater than 7. On the other hand rain and snow water are acidic in nature and have a pH between 5 to 6.

Thus, it is only due to the dissolved bases and acids in natural water which makes it either acidic or basic in nature.

How does water naturally drain off the land? Be sure to discuss watershed and th water table
avanturin [10]

Evaporation, condensation, precipitation are all part of the water cycle. After the precipitation, the “destiny” of the water is ground water or surface runoff.

Groundwater is the term for all the waters beneath Earth’s surface, that fills in porous spaces in soil, sediment, and rocks. But, when falling rain cannot be absorbed by soil (saturated by water) and become groundwater, it flows over the surface and this is called surface runoff. Groundwater has its zones: vadose zone (right beneath the ground, unsaturated zone), water table (water pressure head is equal to the atmospheric pressure), zone of saturation (saturated with water).

A watershed is the land area that drains into a body of water.
