Marukyan Extra Credit MGT 462/November 16‚ 2009 Water Conservation I have attended the presentation about water conservation techniques that each of us can use in our everyday life to ensure the sustainable development of resources and especially water. The presenter on the water conservation was a man who is in charge of the water preservation in Santa Monica. The presentation was very interesting and had great deal of information about proven water conservation tactics. The topics covered included

The water cycle is also known as the hydrologic cycle. The water cycle describes the movement of water on‚ above and below the surface of Earth. Water can change states through the stages of the water cycle. Water can change from a solid to a liquid to water vapor in various places of the water cycle. Water moves from one lake to another‚ just like from an ocean to the atmosphere. Water travels by different processes of evaporation‚ condensation‚ precipitation‚ infiltration‚ runoff and subsurface
Premium Water Hydrology Evaporation
Purification of Water Domestic: Distillation - In the process of distillation water is heated and evaporation takes place‚ whereby water changes back to water when cooled; this process is called condensation. The condensed water is the purest form of water‚ free from microbes‚ and impurities. Boiling - Boiling is the best and simplest method to purify water. After straining the water twice through clean muslin cloth‚ it is boiled for ten minutes lo kill the microbes present in it and also remove

In this experiment I will find out that in a type of water the Alka-Seltzer will dissolve faster and slower. Alka-Seltzer is one of the world’s best known antacids. Its main function is to absorb excess stomach acid. II. MATERIALS: * Tap Water - Warm Water * Cold Water - Salt Water * Acidic Water -5 cups (250 mL

Properties of Water Water is essential for life as we know it on earth. It is used by plants and animals for basic biological processes which would be impossible without the use of water. The origin of all life can be traced back to the water in the Earth’s precambrien seas. Water is also the universal solvent. It reacts with more elements and compounds than any other substance known to man. Water is a polar molecule made up of on atom of hydrogen and two atoms of oxygen. It is attracted

Water is life. Water is the most important thing for survival. Without water it is impossible that a planet be inhabited. Wherever we have water we find life. Our planet earth has 70% water. Ther firt ever living creature was tiny aquatic organisms. Water also is the means by which human beings survive. Water plays a very important role in religions around the world. Water signify spiritual purity being used for praying. Water also helps in agriculture.Water is the most important thing for survival

biological importance of water Water‚ the most abundant compound on the planet‚ is a material which is essential for all living organisms. Its uses in all living things cover a huge variety of everyday functions which are immeasurably important to the continuity of the organism. The fact that water makes up between 60 and 95 percent of all living organisms speaks for itself on the incredible biological importance of this compound. One of the major functions of water in living organism is its

Properties of Water Introduction: Water’s chemical description is H2O. As the diagram to the left shows‚ that is one atom of oxygen bound to two atoms of hydrogen. The hydrogen atoms are "attached" to one side of the oxygen atom‚ resulting in a water molecule having a positive charge on the side where the hydrogen atoms are and a negative charge on the other side‚ where the oxygen atom is. This uneven distribution of charge is called polarity. Since opposite electrical charges attract‚ water molecules
