Chapter: 09. Water As A Resource
Question 1
What water purification method is being demonstrated in the picture? Why is this method important for making water fit for use? What type of impurities would this method primarily remove from the water? Can water purified by this method be considered completely safe for drinking without further treatment? Explain why or why not. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 2
Identify the processes shown by arrows in the diagram. Explain what causes the water to rise into the sky from the ocean. What forms in the sky as a result of water vapour cooling, and what is that process called? Where does the water typically go after falling from the sky in this cycle? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 3
What water conservation method is illustrated in this picture? Explain how this system works to save water. Why is implementing such a system important for communities, especially during certain times of the year? List two potential uses for the water collected by this system. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Question 4
Identify the three states of water depicted in the image, corresponding to Panel 1, Panel 2, and Panel 3. Which process causes water to change from the state shown in Panel 2 to Panel 1? What is the process called when water changes from the state in Panel 2 to the state in Panel 3? Describe one key difference in the observable properties of water between the state in Panel 1 and Panel 2. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
