(A) if both sentences are true, (B) if both sentences are false, (C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and (D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. Tap water is more pure than distilled water. The purity and cleanliness of distilled water remains constant no matter where you get it from, because of the process it has undergone. 2. Carbon dating is an application of nuclear chemistry where they use the amount of C-14 in a fossil to determine its age. Nuclear power plants produce radioactive wastes. 3. The density of water is dependent on its temperature. A water molecule has a linear structure because of the neutral charges of its atoms.  4. Sedimentation is a chemical water treatment process using gravity to remove suspended solids from water. Colloids are not likely to settle naturally because of Brownian motion and electrostatic forces balancing the gravity. 5. Uranium is mined. A uranium ore may directly be used as a fuel in a nuclear reactor without undergoing the process of refining.
