The following classifies the processes in the purification of water. State whether each is a physical or chemical change and why:
1) A coarse screen made of metal bars filters large particles and trash, such as bottles and cans.

2) Chlorine is added to kill bacteria and viruses. It also helps to remove dissolved hydrogen sulfide: H2S (aq) + 4 CL2 (aq) + 4 H2O(l)——-> 8 Cl- (aq) + SO2-4 (aq) + 10 H+ (aq)

3) A process called flocculation removes suspended particles, such as clay and micro-organisms. Lime, CAO, and aluminumn sulfate are added. They react together to form aluminum hydroxide.

4) The water is passed through a bed of graded gravel and sand in a filtering tank.

5) The water is often saturated with oxygen by spraying it into the air, which helps to remove volatile organic compounds.

6) The water receives a second treatment with chlorine to kill bacteria. Ammonia is added to make the chlorine last longer in the piping. Some cities add sodium fluoride.

I keep getting the same sickness over and over! Seems like every 3-4 months, or when the season changes. I have a runny nose, sore throat and cough and in bed for 5-10 days! At first I start feeling really run down, then the runny nose starts. Then the sore throat and last the cough, and I lose my voice EVERY TIME! I try taking vitamins and I exercise a lot to keep in shape. I eat organic healthy foods, but I’m the only one in my household getting sick every season! Why is this? Its been this way since I was a little girl. I don’t think this is normal.

WHY did my kitten do this? Not happy?

Okay here are the facts before I ask my question:
-I adopted a 4 month old kitten from a shelter a week ago
-She is spayed, vaccinated, wormed AND litter trained

Today I was sitting in my living room with my kitten and she was playing as usual with her fake mice and whatever else. She jumped up onto our lounge chair and started scratching at it like she sometimes does when she’s playing, anyway I didn’t take any notice of this until I realised she had been doing it for some time. So I got up to check and she had PEED all over the seat. I promptly picked her up and put her into her room. (We have a small room in our house specially for her with her litter tray and bed in it etcetera) and cleaned up the pee.

My question is, why did she do this? She is definitely litter trained and since bringing her home this is the first slip up she’s had. We were using pellet litter but changed it to a more organic brand and I was thinking maybe this is why she didn’t use her litter box, but that morning when she did a poo she used it just fine!!

Why did she decide to pee on the chair and not use her litter box like she had been? Was it because we changed litter? If so, why did she use it that morning to pee and poo and not when she peed on the chair?
Okay, did you not read what i wrote? FYI everyone, SHE IS SPAYED!!!!

4th time posting since I got zero replies (except for one rude person). I’ve posted this in Do it Yourself, Green Living and under Laundry. I hope this is the right category this time…

Is it possible to dye woven organic cotton with chlorophyll and zero chemicals? How to do it to obtain a pastel green or mint green shade? (It’s the shade typically used in baby clothes & bedding in color green)

I’ve spilled liquid chlorophyll on my counters and clothes before and the stains are premanent. I’m not worried about "colorfastnest" I know it will last. I’m googling and getting nowhere.

I have chemical allergies and was looking for colorgrown organic cotton, in a woven fabric, color mint green or even dusty seafoam green but I can’t find that and why I want to try to do it myself. (If you have links to that, please feel free to share!) :o )

I just want a recipe, a how to on how to do it, basically. Please do NOT suggest so called "low-impact dyes", they are synthetic and highly toxic.

Links much appreciated!

Thanks.

eLZhi – The Great (Prod. Oh No)

eLZhi – The Leftovers Unmixedtape (2009) The Leftovers UnMixedtape is exactly what it sounds like: A compilation of one of the game’s most talented Emcee’s unreleased and featured works. Whether it’s a promo joint from a few months back (eLZhi and Black Milk – Deep), a feature from another artist’s project (Danny Brown – Contra feat. eLZhi), or just a rare gem from years past (eLZhi and DJ Dez – Living), these Leftovers would have passed for a fresh cooked meal if you didn’t know better. It’s raw, uncut, unmastered, fresh from the studio and ready for your ears. No DJs, just eLZhi and his comrades, your speakers and you. Without the Leftovers UnMixedtape, most of these songs would never have seen the light of day, so consider this a gift, and come get your grub on! elzhi.com Lyrics: Yeah, I’m finally on my one-two, you fake artists is untrue now watch how the son do without me, who would you run to to hold the best kept secret, like walking in a club sneaking a gun through welcome to the album and how come the style from the child attack the crowd like a falcon well, the gift is in me, like a fifth of Henny cross the Pacific, lifted, spending different pennies from foreign currency, and just then it occurred to me that I turned a G, and every sense with the word could be see I came up, where niggas aim pumps and you can frame stomped, if you a lame chomp it’s ashamed, that many didn’t make if from the pissy mattress and shitty blanket, when I left the city vacant I, got

Right Back Where I Started Intro/Ch.1

Heyoo! First Chapter!! This is kinda the intro/first chapter. The first few episodes are just fillers. After the 4th or 5th it’ll start to get more exciting =). I know this one sux so please don’t hate me =( Also when I post the title will be Right Back cuz it’s long =). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Michelle’s POV “FINALLY!!!” I said, collapsing onto the couch. I finally finished moving into the VFC house. “Welcome to the Varsity Crib Elle!!!” Drew said, bear hugging me. I laughed and hugged him back, as he lifted me off the ground. We let go of each other as David walked in with my last bag. “When did you come up with Elle? I’ve never heard anyone but Drew call you that.” Dave asked me. “That’s because it’s my special name for my best friend! Gave it to her when she was in 7th grade!” Drew replied as we moved my bags into my new room. I fell onto my bed. It has a mattress but no sheets yet. I stared at the ceiling. Drew and Dave fell onto either side of me. “Wanna watch a movie?” Drew asked. “Sure..” David & I replied. We all went into Drew’s room and sat on the bed. Dave popped She’s The Man in and before the movie was even a quarter in, I was out like a light. Drew’s POV About a quarter’s way into the movie, Elle fell asleep on my chest. I’m assuming all the moving and driving wiped her out. We were all pretty tired. Jayk ditched us. Wouldn’t even help his own sister move in. He claims he was “busy and had made important plans before hand.” Psh yea right

Is it just a matter of them adding chemicals, or is there something else going on? I’d prefer to eat "natural" foods but am unclear on exactly what happens to foods when they "process" them for freezing, canning, whatever or just making "unnatural" foods like pizza rolls, etc. (I am NOT going to give up pizza rolls under any circumstances.) If there are differences for meats, vegetables, dairy etc. let me know. Thanks!

Just curious…
if bumper pads are dangerous, why are they part of crib bedding sets?
if feeding cereal in a bottle (even watered down w/ bmilk or formula) is harmful, why are there cereal nipples for bottles, and cereal feeders? http://www.playtexstore.com/cgi-bin/item/PLA05708

I don’t buy the idea that companies are naive or malicious to make these products! Perhaps they aren’t as bad as some people may lead us to believe?

btw- whats up with the ads for the chlorine-free wipes?? all wipes are clorine free -I checked!

Why am I made to feel as if I am somehow a bad mom for using anything not organic, eco-friendly, or "green"? That stuff is 2-3 times the price!

Why do people still think coal is ancient?

Those that think coal is millions of years ago have some hard questions to answer. All coal deposits contain carbon 14. This puts an absolute upper age limit of about 50k years. The popular idea that coal formed from swamps is not supported by the evidence. There are many examples of polystrate fossils extending through ‘millions of years’ of rocks. http://www.googlesyndicatedsearch.com/u/creationontheweb?q=polystrate&hl=en&lr=
The best explanation for the observed coal beds is that a lot of trees and organic matter was buried quickly in a catastrophic flood – and recently at that.
Do those that resist facing up to this have a religious agenda which clouds their science?
