How can water generate Electricity? There are two primary methods for generating electricity from water. One method uses the energy potential of trapped water in dams in a more sophisticated version of the water wheel‚ and the other method of generating electricity is to capture energy from ocean waves. Electricity generated from water is entirely renewable‚ sinccete water is an abundant natural resource First method:When a dam is used to generate energy‚ tunnels are installed in the dam when

drinking water? Saltwater is becoming a problem to our drinking water because it is getting into the rivers that we get our drinking water from and it and the saltwater it is also intruding aquifers. The place where you can see the most change is in Florida because of the climate change. Because whenever it floods in Florida the seawater gets into the rivers and also seeps into the grounds. When it seeps into the ground it gets into the aquifers and that’s how Florida is losing its water. It is also

Now that it is for sure that we need to make conscience and don’t spend too much water on things‚ the next essay will be written. In some parts of Mexico‚ water has been exploded to its maximum. In places where people have a lot of money‚ more water is used for things. For example‚ in Mexico DF‚ we use 270 L per day‚ this means

Soapy water What affect does adding soap to water have on surface tension? Research: "Soaps and detergents include surfactants‚ that reduce the surface tension of the liquid. This allows the liquid to have a good contact with the material and to remove the dirt from it efficiently." (Kibron.com) "Hydrogen bonding between water molecules leads to many interesting consequences at the visible‚ macroscopic level. For example: the boiling point of water‚ its surface tension‚ and it’s ability to

Surface Water - Surface water is water on the surface of the planet such as in a stream‚ river‚ lake‚ wetland‚ or ocean. It can be contrasted with groundwater and atmospheric water. - Non-saline surface water is replenished by precipitation and by recruitment from ground-water. It is lost through evaporation‚ seepage into the ground where it becomes ground-water‚ used by plants for transpiration‚ abstracted by mankind for agriculture‚ living‚ industry etc. or discharged to the sea where it becomes

amounts of water consumed in the brewing process as well as washing and sterilizing procedures. It is estimated that between 4 and 7 L of water is required to produce 1 L of beer. Beer is the fifth more popular drink in the world so to meet this demand; large quantities of water are required. Water chemistry has an effect on the brewing efficiency as well as the taste‚ so water from water authorities must be treated in order to produce water which is acceptable for brewing. Demand for water has become

“WATER IS A GOOD SOLVENT” Water is very unique in all facets of its nature. The chemical formula for water is H2O as a water molecule consists of two atoms of the chemical element hydrogen (H) and one atom of the element oxygen (O). Water is the most abundant chemical compound on earth as its mass all exists together‚ naturally‚ in its gaseous‚ liquid and solid state. It is the most precious natural resource to man and is essential to life for all discovered living organisms. One of the unusual
