About Salt (Sodium Chloride)

           Molecular formula of sodium is NaCl.(Sodium and
chlorine). It's melting point is  801 °C (1474 °F). It have a
Cubic Crystal structure. Salt is  produced by evaporation
of seawater and  Mining of rock salt.
          The top  producers are  China , United States , Germany,
India and Canada. Salt is used in oil and gas exploration, in
textiles and dyeing industry, in processing metals like aluminium,
copper, in water softening etc. Salt is used  for the production of
many chemicals.

Drain Water Under the Microscope - Algae and others

Drain Water Seen Through the Microscope.

Micro organisms are very small in size and requires
microscopes to see them. There are many types and includes
bacteria, plankton, microscopic plants called algae, fungi
etc. The micro organisms living in the soil converts
nutrients into forms that plants can use.

Tomato Skin Cells

 Note the difference between tomato skin cells and the
tomato cells. The skin is tough and protective and the
inside of the tomato is soft. The skin structure is such
that, it prevents water evaporation and gives protection
from insects.
