Class 6 Science Worksheet for Chapter 14 Water

Learning Objectives
1. Water is a natural resource.
2. Water cycle.

About three fourth of Earth’s surface is covered with water. Water is found in rivers, seas, oceans, soil, air, plants and animals. Man is dependent on plants and animals which are in turn dependent on air, water and soil etc. All such substances which are used by man for sustenance of life and his welfare are called resources and those that are found in nature are called natural resources.

Importance of water : Water is the most important substances required by us. Without water, we cannot live. Water is used in agriculture, industries, for washing, bathing, drinking, cooking, cleaning and several other purposes. Our body has 70% water by weight while water melon is 99% water.

STATES OF WATER
Water can exist in three states: solid, liquid and gas.
→ Ice is the solid form of water.
→ Water that we drink is the liquid state.
→ Steam is the gaseous state.
In nature, water is found in solid state as snow on high mountains. Most of water on earth is in liquid form found in rivers, seas, oceans and lakes. Water vapour in air is the gaseous state of water.
We can change the state of water by changing the temperature; either by heating or cooling.
Water can be changed to ice by cooling. This is called freezing.
When ice is heated it will melt to form water. This is called melting of ice. Similarly when water is heated, it forms steam. This is called evaporation.
Evaporation occurs at all temperature. Water from wet clothes evaporates and then clothes become dry. Wet clothes dry faster in the sun and water evaporates faster if the surface area is increased.
Water vapour condenses to form water on cooling. This is called condensation.

""CBSE-Class-6-Science-Water-Worksheet-Set-C-1

Water circulates in nature. The circulation of water from the surface of earth to the atmosphere and back to earth is called water cycle.
Water from water bodies like rivers, seas, oceans and lakes evaporates because of the heat of sun. Plants also give out water from their leaves during transpiration. Water vapour rises and as they reach higher up in the atmosphere they cool and condenses to form water droplets. These water droplets coalesce to from clouds. The clouds cool further and when they become too heavy, they fall down on earth as rain. This is called precipitation.
The rainwater falls on seas, rivers and other water bodies. Water from land also flows into rivers through streets. Some rainwater may seep underground as groundwater. This water is used in houses; agriculture and industries. Finally this water too goes into rivers and seas. Snow from mountains also melt and flows into rivers. The water in oceans, seas, rivers and lakes evaporate again.
This cycle goes on and in this way water cycle goes on in nature.

Fog : During winter, sometimes, condensation of water vapours start near the surface of earth. These condensed vapour do not form rain clouds. Instead they appear near the earth surface as fog.

Hail or snow : Sometimes when rain falls on high mountains or when it is too cold, the water becomes solid and becomes snow. When snow falls it is called hail.

Dew : During winter nights, when air becomes very cool, the vapours near the earth’s surface condense and form water droplets. These appear as dew on leaves, flowers, railings etc.

Sources of Water

Rainwater : Rain is the main source of water. It is free from germs but may contain dust particles. There are some dissolved gases such as carbondioxide and sometimes acids may also pollute rain water causing acid rain.

Groundwater : When rain falls on the ground, some water penetrate the soil and accumulate on the non-porous rocky layer. This is called underground water and the level of water is called water table.
Sometimes the groundwater may come out at the surface to form a natural spring. It may also form a lake.
Groundwater passes through several layers of sand and rocks. It gets filtered through these layers and is free from suspended impurities. However, it may be contaminated with germs and some dissolved salts of calcium and magnesium.
We can obtain groundwater by digging wells and tube

""CBSE-Class-6-Science-Water-Worksheet-Set-C-2

Surface water : Rainwater that runs off the surface of earth to form streams, lakes and rivers is called surface water. Snow melts and the water flows down
to rivers and lakes. Surface water is highly contaminated with germs, suspended impurities and dissolved salts. Sewage water from houses and industries are also discharged into rivers. River water needs to be cleaned before being supplied to cities and towns for drinking. If uncleaned water is consumed, it may cause dangerous diseases like jaundice, cholera and typhoid.

Sea Water
Rivers and streams finally flow into sea and so they are the largest reservoirs of natural water. Sea water is the most impure water. It contains dissolved common salt. Due to this sea water is salty and is called saline water. It is unfit for drinking, cannot be used in irrigation and in industries. People must use water judiciously otherwise there will be a severe water crisis.

Disadvantage of no rainfall at all : Rain is the main source of water. Less or no rainfall can convert an area into a desert. If there is no rainfall for a long period, in continuation, it may lead to drought. There will be no crop, no food for humans and animals. There will be loss of life. An economic crisis will occur in the region and this will become a natural calamity.

Problem due to heavy rain : If there is heavy rainfall, then also problem will rise. The fields will get flooded and crops will be damaged. Again there will be shortage of food and fodder. Collection of rain water will also disrupt the normal life of peoples. Many roads and bridges will get damaged and there will be loss to life and property. Low lying areas will be flooded and people have to be shifted.

Factors affecting shortage of water
(i) Increase in population has increased the demand for water.
(ii) Change in lifestyle of people has increased the consumption of water.
(iii) Urbanisation has decreased the groundwater reserves as concrete roads do not allow seepage of water.
(iv) Industrial demand for water is increasing many times.

Conservation of water : In summers people face shortage of water because the level of groundwater goes down and so there is no water in wells and tube wells. If there is low rainfall the situation becomes even more grim. There is scarcity of drinking water. Therefore, management of water resources is very important and in this water conservation plays an important role

Measures for conservation of water
1. Development of watershed plan for drinking, irrigation and industrial areas.
2. Carrying out surveys to identify over exploited areas.
3. Artificial recharging of ground water.
4. Adoption of flood control methods.
5. Transfer of excess water to deficit areas by interlinking of rivers.
6. Adopting water harvesting methods.
7. Avoiding misuse of water.
8. Organising people awareness programmes.

Rain water Harvesting : Rain water simply flows into drains and is lost.
Instead this rain water can be collected and used later. This is called harvesting of rain water.
Rain water from roof tops and kitchen weather can be collected in underground tanks. Water from these tanks percolate underground and recharge the aquifers.

Preventing water pollution : We can also conserve water by protecting the water bodies from pollution. We should not dump garbage and harmful chemicals from factor in water bodies. Dirty water is bad for marine line. Even plants and animals die around polluted water. If humans consume polluted water they may suffer from many diseases.

Keywords
• Condensation : Process by which water vapour in air changes into liquid water.
• Evaporation : Process by which liquid water turns into vapour.
• Transpiration : Process by which plants lose water in the form of water vapour into the atmosphere.
• Water cycle : The cyclic movement of water from the atmosphere to the Earth and back to the atmosphere through various processes is called water cycle.
• Drought : Abnormally long period of insufficient or no rainfall is called drought.
• Famine : Lack of food in a region for a long period is called famine.
• Rain water harvesting : The process of collecting and storing rainwater from roofs or a surface catchment is called rainwater harvesting
