Water pollution is when the water in lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ and other bodies of water is contaminated. Humans are the main cause for polluting the water. The countries that are most affected by water pollution are: India – The Ganges River China – The Yellow River Central Asia – Amu and Syr Darya Rivers Nepals – Most of the Rivers Pacific Islands Australia Water pollution affects ones physical and emotional health since without drinking water we cannot survive and if the water is polluted

Water is essential for any living thing on the Earth: plants need water to grow; human can’t live without water for 3-5 days. However‚ the world is facing a serious issue knows as water scarcity – this is major caused by the increment of human activity and climate change. There are two possible solutions such as implementing high technology to produce safe water and education for both children and adults. The increment of human activity is one of the major causes of water scarcity. As world population

Water pollution has become increasingly troubling in the last few decades. Even though many new laws have been enacted to try to protect the water sources there is still much work to be done to keep the water systems of the world clean and pollution free. One way that information can be spread about the problems regarding water pollution is by writing water pollution articles. Water pollution articles are very helpful ways to get out information about the causes of water pollution as well as the

oversight have increased water pollution. Therefore‚ deterioration of drinking water quality continues to be a major problem. Continuous emissions from manufacturing are the largest contributor to lowered drinking quality across the country. China’s major river systems exhibit the scope of the problem. Perhaps 70 percent of their water is so polluted that it has been deemed unsafe for human contact. In addition to untreated sewage released into these waterways‚ high-growth industries such as textiles‚ paper

Drinking water or potable water is water safe enough to be consumed by humans or used with low risk of immediate or long term harm. In most developed countries‚ the water supplied to households‚ commerce and industry meets drinking water standards‚ even though only a very small proportion is actually consumed or used in food preparation. Typical uses (for other than potable purposes) include toilet flushing‚ washing and landscape irrigation. Chlorination is the process of adding the element chlorine to water as

EXPERIMENT 1: WATER CRYSTALIZATION OBJECTIVES: To determine the percentage of water in aluminium sulphate hydrate To calculate the water of crystallization for aluminium sulphate hydrate To prove that a hydrate solution will lose some of it mass after heated INTRODUCTION A hydrated salt is a crystallize salt molecule that is weakly attached to a certain number of water molecules. Salt is created when an acid’s anion (negative ions) and a base’s cation (positive ions) are combined to produce

The Water Bottle The station was painfully close. I was racing through the desert‚ the sun slowly roasting and marinating me‚ soon id be a meal for the grim reaper. Sand tore away under the wheels of my bike as I rode hard east. Looking down into my lap‚ I eyed the package. I could abscond.
