When looking for physical science info, I don't think readers should be hit with what could be considered a sensitive picture. It made me sad and wasn't necessary to illustrate the point which was being made, which is already described in the list under "Applications."undo

The advantages and disadvantages posited appear to be much the same. If there is actually another distinct class it needs to be defined.undoTags: Mobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

Rather the contrary as if they are produced through agriculture they result in the progressive degradation of the soil, while most salts can be extracted from and returned to the sea.undoTags: Mobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

If anyone knows of some such material let her please name it.undoTags: Mobile editMobile web editAdvanced mobile edit

Added liquid specific heat and liquid density.undoTag: Visual edit
