fresh water is also becoming a scarcity. The limited availability of fresh water and its unequal distribution make water pollution a matter of great concern. Water pollution is generally localized and confined‚ making it more severe. The pollutants undergo many reactions and can become hazardous. 70 % of India’s fresh water is polluted‚ including several high altitude lakes. While water pollution is easier to study and manage‚ its control is highly complex and very costly. Water pollution

The Biological Importance Of Water Water plays a huge role in our lives‚ the molecule which is comprised of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen bonded together has many complex properties. The molecule maintains a bent shape due to its tetrahedral arrangement and the negative lone pair of electrons on the oxygen. The electrons from both hydrogen and oxygen are joined covalently but the difference in electronegativity lets the electrons from hydrogen get pulled slightly toward the oxygen

Water Pollution – Essay Air and water are two most essential ingredients necessary for the existence of life. Air is unlimited. But there is limitation of fresh water‚ required for the human beings’ consumption. So‚ there is need to conserve water‚ by its judicious use and by protecting it from the pollutants. Our water resources are depleting very fast. We need to take action. It has been predicted that the future wars would be fought due to water problem. All around the world‚ countries

“The History of Water on Mars” Essay Water is a very abundant resource in our solar system. You can find water attached to most of the colder and farther planets. When I speak of water though‚ I mean ice water. Not the silky drink you have every day‚ but the very high-pressure sealed water that is usually found below the sediment and crust. “But shouldn’t that be where liquid water comes from?” is what most ask‚ and sometimes the answer is yes‚ but there are many situations that vary. Just like

Have you ever dropped oil on your hands and tried to wash it off? What happens? Does the water slide off? Or what about when a drop of oil falls in a glass of water? Why does it float to the surface‚ and not mix? The answer to this is simple: polarity. What exactly is polarity? A polar bond is when there is a difference in electronegativity‚ which means the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. When two atoms are bonded together and one attracts more electrons‚ this results
