Water is a chemical compound with the chemical formula H2O. A water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms connected by covalent bonds. Water is a liquid at standard ambient temperature and pressure‚ but it often co-exists on Earth with its solid state‚ ice‚ and gaseous state (water vapor or steam). Water also exists in a liquid crystal state near hydrophilic surfaces. Water is considered a purifier in most religions. Major faiths that incorporate ritual washing (ablution) include Christianity

to tell about WATER water is the most imp thing on earth.without water no life.We take it for granted‚ we waste it‚ and we even pay too much to drink it from little plastic bottles. And still‚ today‚ nearly 1 billion people in the developing world don’t have access to it. Clean‚ safe drinking water is scarce. It is the foundation of life‚ a basic human need. Yet today‚ all around the world‚ far too many people spend their entire day searching for it. Simply put‚ water scarcity is either

Water pollution Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies . Mostly water pollution occurs in lakes‚ rivers‚ oceans‚ aquifers and groundwater. Water pollution occurs when pollutants are directly or indirectly discharged into water bodies without adequate treatmentto remove harmful compounds. Type of water pollutions There are many types of water pollution because water comes from many sources. Here are a few types of water pollution: 1. Nutrients Pollution Some wastewater‚ fertilizers

I wonder if you know my life story. Most probably you don’t. So you may be interested to listen to what I say I was born in the forests of America. I grew to be a tall tree with soft wood. One day I was surprised to see many men coming into the forest. They begaaan to cut down cruelly many of my friends and I shook with fear. All at once a man came near me. He gave me many severe cuts with his sharp steel axe and felled me down. I cried with pain when a huge machine cut me into big pieces. I was

How Does This Thing Work? It operates on a 100 year old proven technology called electrolysis. Whenever you place two pieces of metal in water‚ and apply electricity‚ the water separates into it’s basic molecules‚ Hydrogen and Oxygen (H2O). If you look at the picture on the left‚ you will see H2O molecules connected together in their liquid form which is WATER But when you apply electricity (from your car battery)‚ the molecules separate and form a GAS (called HHO) which is a mixture of

several other monuments belonging to the old city. As the village is at the original centre of Vijayanagara‚ it is sometimes confused with the ruined city itself. The ruins are a UNESCO World Heritage Site‚ listed as the Group of Monuments at Hampi.[1] [pic][edit] Etymology The name is derived from Pampa‚ which is the old name of the Tungabhadra River on whose banks the city is built. The name "Hampi" is an anglicized version of the Kannada Hampe (derived from Pampa). Over the years‚ it has

How water is purified in water treatment plants Pre-treatment 1. Pumping and containment – The majority of water must be pumped from its source or directed into pipes or holding tanks. To avoid adding contaminants to the water‚ this physical infrastructure must be made from appropriate materials and constructed so that accidental contamination does not occur. 2. Screening (see also screen filter) – The first step in purifying surface water is to remove large debris such as sticks‚ leaves

Soil properties: Some physical and chemical properties of the soil were measured‚ which are presented in Table 1. The availability of nutrients and even contaminants depends on the degree of soil acidity. The most suitable pH for soil microorganism’ activity is 7‚ as nutrient solubility depends on soil pH changes (Riser-Roberts‚ 1998). The soil used in the present study has neutral pH and therefore does not limit the activity of microorganisms or the solubility of nutrients except for phosphorus

Water: the source of life Water is an indefinable element. It can be destructible and wipe out the strongest forces in the world while it was also the beginning of life. It gives a lot but it can take back more than that. Water is one of the four elements of nature. It’s represented in the liquid form while earth is sold‚ air is gas and fire is the in-between of all. Water is important to every living thing. For plants it’s absorbed from the soil‚ for humans it’s for drinking and use for various
