No, it will not make white. Mixing light is different from mixing pigments. Paint is a pigment not light.

When you mix red, blue, and green light equally you get white light, because in this case all these colours get added. But exact opposite happens in the case of paint. In paint, these colours gets subtracted to form black colour.

In simple words, when we mix paint, all the light falling on the paint gets absorbed. So, it reflects no light and gives black colour. This is because the light that doesn't get absorbed by one pigment gets absorbed by the other one. So, <em>all </em>the light gets absorbed.

What two substances are we concerned about over-nourishing our water sources and ultimately leading to eutrophication?
expeople1 [14]

The correct answer is - nitrogen and phosphorus.

The nitrogen and the phosphorus are the two substances that cause most of the eutrophication. It is good for the organisms that live in the water when these two substances are available as they are very important nutrients, but if the optimal amount is surpassed than it can be devastating. When there's high quantities of nitrogen and phosphorus in the water it makes it much more rich in nutrients that it should be. That kind of situation is the best for the algae, which start growing all over the place, quickly covering the water and becoming the dominant life form. As that happens, the organisms that use photosynthesis will die out because the Sun will be blocked, and the algae  will also contribute to a big reduction of the oxygen in the water too. The end result being totally destroyed ecosystem that has been overtaken by algae.
