Question

1 multiple choice 2 points what is the relationship between groundwater and surface water? surface water percolates through the soil to form groundwater. groundwater filters through the soil to form surface water. there is no relationship between surface water and groundwater; they form independently. surface water is found in lakes directly above underground water sources. 2 multiple choice 2 points what is the purpose of adding chlorine to water during the water treatment process? to kill bacteria and prevent future bacterial growth to remove unwanted gases to form flocs that bacteria and other impurities will cling to to filter and remove large debris

Explanation:

1. Surface water can seep through soil and become groundwater. This is a well - known hydrological process. Groundwater does not typically form surface water in the described way, and they are related, not independent. Lakes are not always directly above groundwater sources.
2. Chlorine is a disinfectant. Its main role in water treatment is to kill bacteria and inhibit future bacterial growth. It is not for removing gases, forming flocs, or filtering large debris.

Answer:

1. Surface water percolates through the soil to form groundwater.
2. to kill bacteria and prevent future bacterial growth
