Leni [432]
<span>A method of processing coal to remove contaminants by mixing coal in a solution of potassium permanganate in a selected concentration range, rinsing the coal, mixing the coal in a solution of ammonia hydroxide in a selected concentration range to cause the solution to be brought into contact with the surfaces and pores of the coal, discharging the processed coal from the second reaction vessel, monitoring the process to detect when the concentration of aqueous ammonia in the second reaction vessel has fallen below the selected range, and feeding aqueous ammonia solution with an ammonia concentration in or above the selected range to the second reaction vessel to return the solution to within the selected range.</span>

Which of the following must result in a lower base level for rivers and streams? A) sea level drops; land subsides B) sea levelf
Ahat [919]

Answer:

A) sea level drops; land subsides

Explanation:

The sea is the final destination of all streams on land. All streams empty into seas which are the basins that collects all terrestrial materials.

The base level is the lowest level to which a river can erode its channel. The base level is greatly influenced by what happens to a sea.

When a river reaches its base level, erosion ceases. If a river is young and set above its base level, we see a rapid rate of erosion.

A sea, the final basin of depostion of rivers controls the base level to a very large extent. When there is a tectonic movement and a sea subsides. It becomes more deeper and lower. Sea level also falls and materials grades seaward. A river would cut rapidly along its channel and its bed to measure up to the level of the ocean.

Therefore, we see a very rapid rate of erosion of channels when sea level falls and the earth sags downward. This would lead to a lower base level.

When sea level rises and there is a tectonic uplift, rivers erode their channels less and begins to aggrade materials. The base level also rises.
