Properties of Seawater Review

This states that the ions dissolved in seawater are found in the same proportions everywhere in the world.

• Rule of Constant Proportions

• Rule of Acidification

• Rule of Adhesion

• Rule of Solubility

Over time, the oceans have decreased in pH. This process is known as

• cohesion

• viscosity

• ocean acidification

• salinity

How does transparency help photosynthetic organisms?

• Light is blocked, protecting photosynthetic organisms.

• Light can pass through the water, allowing photosynthetic organisms to make their food.

• Light can pass through, allowing photosynthetic organisms to hunt for food.

• Light is blocked, allowing photosynthetic organisms to rest.

What happens to pressure the deeper into the ocean you go?

• it increases

• it decreases

Why does sound travel faster in water than in air?

• Water has more solutes in it than air.

• Water is less dense than air.

• Water is more dense than air.

• Water has more space than air.

What happens to the density of the seawater as temperature decreases?

• it increases

• it decreases
