In fact, over one-third of occupational therapy practitioners work with older adults. When an elderly person is affected by illness, accident, injury, disability, or a mental health condition, occupational therapists are the guiding light on the road to recovery.ithin the plan of care, it may be recommended a client see both an occupational therapist and physical therapist. An easy way to remember the OT specialty is that it is about the technical execution of daily activities: OTs help clients perform daily functions or âoccupationsâ.
1 Gases can dissolve in water. 2  The dissolving of a gas in water depends on the interaction between the molecules of the gas and the water molecules. 3  The amount of gas that can be dissolved in water depends on the temperature of the water.4  More gas can dissolve in cold water than in hot water.he bond between carbon and oxygen is not as polar as the bond between hydrogen and oxygen, but it is polar enough that carbon dioxide can dissolve in water. Project the image CO2 Dissolved in Water. Explain that in carbonated water, molecules of carbon dioxide are thoroughly mixed and dissolved in water.
Salt (or other solutes, like sugar) can easily dissolve in liquid water. However, taking the solute out of the water and putting it in the gas phase (air) requires a lot of energy. At temperatures around the water boiling point, these solutes stay in the liquid. Now the total pressure in the liquid and the air at the boundary are the same- otherwise one would push the other into a smaller space. Part of the pressure in the liquid comes from the solutes, not the water. So the pressure due to the water alone is reduced compared to that of pure water at the same temperature.
