As density increases

Temperature decreases

Temperature increases

As temperature increases

Density increases

Density decreases

As salinity increases

Density increases

Density decreases

Ocean depth increases & Salinity increases then

Temperature increases because cold water is more dense and sinks

Temperature decreases because cold water is more dense and sinks

True or False: When an object or substance is cooler, its particles move slower and are closer together

True

False

True or False: When an object or substance is warmer, its particles move faster and get further apart (Tip for remembering: they are warmer and want to get cooler by moving away from one another)

True

False

.
True or False: Salinity increases as ocean depth increases.

True

False

Briefly describe the overall relationship between temperature and density.

Lower temperature water has lower density, warmer water has higher density

Lower temperature water has higher density, warmer water has lower density

Which one is more dense?

hot water

cold water

Which is more dense?

Saltwater

Freshwater

Warmer water will remain because __

deep; lower density than cool water

at the surface; higher density than cool water

at the surface; lower density than cool water

deep; higher density than cool water
