Answer:
The organic solvent is the odd one out.
Explanation:
- The black-brown water that goes down the drains from skins, showers, toilets, laundries etc is called wastewater.
- Wastewater is often generated in homes, industries, hospitals, agricultural fields and other human activities. This refers to the sewage i.e. liquid waste causing water and soil pollution.
- To eliminate or reduce waste and pollutants at their source, it is important to check what pollutants are exactly released down the drain out of the sources.
- Used tea leaves, sanitary towels, used towels, soft toys etc. are the domestic wastes which should be thrown in the dustbin and not be released directly into the drain.
- These wastes choke the drains. Such wastes do not allow free flow of oxygen which hampers the degradation process.
- Chemicals like paints, organic solvents, insecticides, motor oils, and medicines may kill microbes that help purify water. So such wastes should not be thrown down the drains.
- While used tea leaves, sanitary towels, and used cotton constitute the domestic waste that can cause the blockage of drains, organic solvents belonging to chemicals don't cause any blockage but can kill the helpful microbes.
Hence organic solvent is the odd one out.
