Chapter III Notes ✓ Water cycle is important because it keeps water supply on Earth.

✓ Gases are invisible Without water cycle, water on Earth will be runs out because of
✓ There are only some gases in room temperature; such as: oxygen, evaporation.
carbon dioxide and nitrogen. ✓ Sometimes freezing happens during water cycle. It happens when:
✓ Air is the mixture of gases. - When the temperature at the sky 0°C hailstone will provide at the
✓ Air layer’s around the Earth is called atmosphere. cloud.
✓ Harmful substance can pollute the environment. - When the temperature at the sky below 0°C hailstone snow will
✓ Sometimes we cannot see the pollutant because it dissolved. appear.
✓ Some gas that can caused air pollution: smoke from cigarettes, ✓ Sometimes melting process appear during water cycle. It happens

✓ Water particles expand, move faster and further apart when it gains ✓ Water cycle Process Diagram:
heat.
✓ Water particles contract and get closer packed together when it loses
heat.
✓ Condensation and Evaporation

Similarities Changes from liquid to gas.
Liquid gains heat.

temperature. point. ✓ Mini water Cycle:
Produce water vapour. Produce steam. At mini water cycle experiment:
✓ Evaporation and Condensation are reverse process. Warm water as (sea/river/ocean)
✓ There will be no condensation without evaporation because no gas to Ice on the plastic cover as (sky)
condense. Water droplets on the bottom of plastic cover as (cloud)
✓ Water Cycle process happens because of heat from the Sun. Water that falls back to warm water as (rain)
✓ Evaporation and condensation happen during water cycle.
During mini water cycle we need ice cube to condenses the water - Water pollution: use natural fertilizer, filter the residue from the
vapour. factories, reduce the pesticides, etc.

✓ Solution is a mixture of 2 or more substance mixed perfectly together


and make uniform appearance.
✓ Things that can dissolve is called soluble substances.
✓ Things that cannot dissolve is called insoluble substances.
✓ Solutions have 2 parts, that are solute and solvent.
✓ Solute is substance that dissolve in solvent.
✓ Solvent is substance that makes solute dissolve.
✓ Water is universal solvent. Because most of solute can dissolve in
water.
✓ Some liquid that dissolves and caused water pollution are: chemical
fertilizer, acid, pesticides, insecticides, fungicides, herbicides and
others.
✓ How to take care our environment to prevent pollutions:
- Air pollution: Not smoking, not burning the trash (buried some trash
to provide compost & recycle some trash), using filter at vehicles and
factories chimney, etc.
