Water conservation importance. Water is very important content. With out water there is no life in earth. We use water in so many ways in our daily life. Water is a substance which covers ¾ part of the world. It means water is occupying more portion compared to land. But this water is becoming more polluted because of the environmental changes. So it is necessary to conserve the water. It is every one duty to protect the water because everyone uses this water and we the people are making water polluted

Natural resource Natural resources (economically referred to as land or raw materials) are naturally forming substances that are considered valuable in their relatively unmodified (natural) form. A natural resource’s value rests in the amount and extractability of the material available and the demand for it. The latter is determined by its usefulness to production. A commodity is generally considered a natural resource when the primary activities associated with it are extraction and purification

The gas in the natural world follows the specific laws. Different laws have their own explanations and they apply to the real things in this real world. Charles’s Law‚ Boyle’s Law‚ Combined Gas Law‚ Avogadro’s Law and Gay-Lussac Law explain the gas properties and show the scientists how the gas functions. Charles’s Law describes how gases tend to expand when the heat is added. When the temperature increases‚ the volume of the gas increases. During the winter season‚ a football inflates inside gradually
