🔍 Key Concepts

• Purpose of chemical dispersants in oil spill response • Difference between absorbing, removing, and dispersing oil • How chemicals change the behavior and visibility of oil in water

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Do these agents make the oil vanish, or do they change how the oil is spread out in the water? • Consider which option best describes the action of a dispersant versus a physical cleanup method like booms or sorbents. • Think about whether the oil is still present in the environment after chemicals are used, even if it looks different.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice matches the idea of breaking oil into smaller droplets rather than collecting it. • Check which options confuse physical removal (like skimming or absorbing) with chemical treatment. • Make sure the option you select does NOT suggest the oil is completely gone from the water, only that its form or distribution has changed.
