turbidity is a term used to describe water clarity, or how clear water is. cloudy water is said to be turbid. turbid water may be a result of a buildup of sediments, which are pieces of rocks that have been broken down and eroded or transported by surface runoff. human activities that remove plants in an area may increase erosion.

sediments can get into the gills of fish, which can then decrease their growth and delay development. sediments prevent sunlight from reaching the producers of the aquatic ecosystem, such as algae. this in turn affects the food webs in this ecosystem.

which statements describe turbidity? check all that apply.

turbidity is a measure of water clarity.

turbidity may be caused by sediments.

turbidity may be a result of human activities.

turbidity increases algae and fish populations.

turbidity is transported to freshwater sources through rain.

Ineed someone to see if my answers are correct! if any are wrong let me know what the correct answers would be and how to get that answer! 1. how many moles of sodium chloride are in 28 grams od nacl? a. 265 mole naclb. 856 mole naclc. 479 mole of nacld. 1.2 mole nacl < my choice2. 734 grams of lithium sulfate (li2so4) are dissolved to make 2500 ml of solution what is rhe molaratiy? a. 2.67 mb. 4.56 mc. 3.89 m < my choiced. 1.78 m3. how many grams of cacl2 would be dissolved in 3.0 l of a 0.50 m solution of cacl2? a. 250 g cacl2 b. 166.5 g cacl2c. 113.65 g cacl2d. 98 g cacl2 < my choice4. suppose you had 58.44 g of nacl and you dissolved it in exactly 2.00 liters. the molarity if the solution would be 0.5 mtrue < my choicefalse 5. i would need 22g of naoh to make a 3.0 m solution using 250 ml of solvent.true < my choicefalse6. identify the solute: you have a .0195 m solution made from using 6.5 g of solute and 3 l of solvent. identify the solute by solving for molar weight.a. the solute is nacl because the molar weight is 58.43 g/mol < my choiceb. the solute is h2so4 because the molar weight is 98.06 g/molc. the solute is cacl2 because the molar weight is 111.11 g/mol
