Deron Murphy, Oct 12, ENVI L 1. How would an increase in evaporation affect the density of the ocean water? it would affect the ocean by causing it to evaporate faster due to the salt water and ocean water 2. Why does the density of liquid water increase as it cools? The cooling causes the water molecules to move slower 3. When seawater freezes, most of the salt is not incorporated in the ice. How does this affect the density of the water that is left unfrozen? the density of water is going to increase Lab 10: Activity 2 Questions

The salinity of the Mediterranean Sea is about 40 ‰ , whereas the salinity of the Atlantic is 35 ‰ . Why do you think the Mediterranean is so salty? Caused by the evaporation of the sea and the run off from the ground 5. Would it be easier for you to ﬂ oat in the Mediterranean or the nearby Atlantic? What about in the Paci fi c? Why? Mediterranean because it has the highest salinity. The paci fi c has the highest salt level so it would be hard to ﬂ oat 6. Thinking about the ocean, where would you fi nd areas where water of different temperature or salinity interact? below the surface 7. The movement of cold water from the ocean depths to the surface is called upwelling . This movement contradicts what you have learned about density in this lab activity. What causes upwelling ?
