Experiment 10: The Chemistry Of Natural Water

Water is one of the most precious resources, which support the life of almost everything in the world. Indeed, the world is covered by 75% water, but most of this water is not suitable for human consumption or use. On the same note, the world has been increasing its consumption of water due to the increasing population, leading to increased demands. The increased water consumption, which has been a result of high population, is worrying because the matter may lead to massive water shortages in the future.

In the Chemistry of Natural Waters Lab we were to collect a sample of water, ranging from a fountain, stream, bottle, or tap water. After we collected the samples we all did many tests to see what the hardness was for each one. Water hardness is determined by the amount of Calcium and Magnesium in the water.(2) Water that has more Calcium or Magnesium is considered to be harder than water with less of those two elements. When you use soap and detergent, this is where you see water hardness coming into play in everyday life when you are washing things.

The final 2 property points were earned for the description and discussion of specific heat.

Around the world our water supply is depleting. Our water is becoming contaminated making it harmful for both mammals and aquatic life. Today over one billion people go without adequate water supply and every fifteen seconds a child dies of waterborne illness. Sources of water that once supplied water to millions can no longer meet the supply and demand of the water need. Scientist predict that the amount of useful water will keep depleting greatly in the years to come. In the next couple of pages it will talk about both the geological and human reasons as to why are water supply is depleting.

Background. Water one of the most essential resources needed by every animal and plant for survival. It served a distinct purpose to each species that requires and uses it. For instance, water is used for food

Water is essential for all living organisms. It is known to everyone around the world as one of the most important requirements for life. Based on a research by Harvard University, water covers about 75% of the earth’s surface and it’s necessary in all different natural environments such as forests, grasslands, tundra, marine etc. Water also plays a major role for industry and commerce, recreation, energy, health environments and more.

Water is essential for life as we know it on earth. It is used by plants

All around the world, countries are fighting to keep their drinking water clean. Whether it’s streams, rivers, or lakes, countries have taken great measures to maintain high quality drinking water for both human consumption and animal consumption. Countries must first understand the sources of the polltion, then determine the best methods to eliminate the pollution. Clean drinking water is a valuable resource and a the key to human survival. Plants and animals also depend on water for their growth, so all water must be kept clean. The major contributors to water pollution can be classified in three categories, industrial, agricultural and municipal.

Water is essential for agricultural production, and natural tap water is the best choice for the watering needs associated with agriculture. Whether it is through irrigation to provide crop water requirements, or is largely supplementary to existing watering measures, using tap water over using bottled water is the only sensible way to accomplish meeting the demands necessary for the watering needs of agriculture. Imagine all of the time, energy, effort, and labor involved with the inconvenient method of watering crops, livestock, and other areas of agriculture with bottled water. Using the bottled water for this purpose would be impractical, especially when the much simpler and obvious method of using tap water exists. When looking at cost comparisons involving agriculture, it is economically cheaper to use tap water than it is to use bottled water. Of course, this savings in water usage is to the advantage of the farmer. For all of these reasons, I believe using natural tap water is the best option for water usage in agriculture.

Water is considered as an essential for human existence. We all can survive without food for some day but no one can live without water at least two days. Human body consists of 70% percent of water and our globe is covered by 69.9% percent of water. But unfortunately the useable fresh water is just 2.5% out of it. Water is a social good, water is an economic good, water has ecological value and water has religious, moral and cultural value.

Water is a very important commodity to live. Some people say it’s a right, but others at as if it’s a privilege, and as a result, people lack it. The human body is about sixty percent water, but in what I have seen just in my twenty years of life, people do not drink merely enough of it. Instead, water has been replaced as a go-to drink by things like milk, coffee, pop, or energy drinks, but natural energy lies in water. With water we can be more energized, awake, and of course, hydrated, which all together collaborate to help us flourish, stay healthy, and live long. It’s most of the earth’s surface, too; water’s all around us, but we neglect it and deny its crucial place in our health and humanity.

In today’s society chemicals, whether you like it or not are a fact of life. Many people are afraid of chemicals and their effects on them and the environment. This is understandable because the truth of the matter is that chemicals can do some horrible things to humans, animals and the whole ecosystem. Some would say that chemicals should be done away with for these reasons. But this certainly is not true and most likely impossible. Chemicals can also have some very positive effects on our lives. Some uneducated people would argue that there should not be restrictions on chemicals. This is just as crazy as saying that chemicals should be done away with. If chemicals are regulated and people abide

Water is directly related with the survival of human kind and it is crucial unlike other resources, because it does not have choices and alternatives. As a consequence of global warming and pollution, importance of water has increased much. Some "2 billion people” already lack water supplies. Water use has risen six-fold over the past 70 years. By 2050, it is estimated that 4.2 billion people live in countries that cannot meet people’s daily basis needs. South Asia is a region of water abundance and scarcity. “Issues concerning water

One of the most important resource that every lifeform requires to strive is undoubtedly water. Water is the start to every lifeform and continues to be the reason why there’s so much life on Earth. We have continually used water for many years. It is a necessary resource that needs to be used by all living beings in order to survive. In the past fresh water was considered a valuable Today water is taken for granted and there are many people that that don’t care about preserving water as much as other do. This is becoming a major concern since the amount of natural fresh water is not very high compared to the amount of water that is unusable. Which makes even more important to take an effort to reduce the amount of pollution to water.

Water is our main source of our life. We need it to live, drink, bathe,
