Solubility vs Lysocline - What's the difference?
solubility | lysocline |
The condition of being soluble.
(chemistry) The amount of a substance that will dissolve in a given amount of a solvent, to give a saturated solution, under specified conditions.
The depth in the ocean below which solubility of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) increases dramatically.
*{{quote-journal, 2009, January 16, R. W. Wilson et al., Contribution of Fish to the Marine Inorganic Carbon Cycle, Science
, passage=The causes of CaCO3 dissolution above the lysocline are subject to debate and have been attributed to (i) dissolution in zooplankton guts; (ii) dissolution in microenvironments where bacterial oxidation of organic matter enhances this process; and (iii) dissolution of more soluble forms of CaCO3, including pteropods and high-magnesium calcite. }}
As nouns the difference between solubility and lysocline
is that solubility is the condition of being soluble while lysocline is the depth in the ocean below which solubility of calcium carbonate (caco3) increases dramatically.solubility
