In this lab we tested the purity of water by looking for the chemicals free chlorine‚ chloride‚ sulfate‚ nitrate‚ copper‚ total hardness‚ iron‚ hydrogen sulfide‚ lead‚ pesticides‚ pH‚ total alkalinity‚ and total chlorine inside a water sample. The chemicals that produced a 0.0 result meant that there was no trace of that chemical inside the sample. The chemicals not found were copper‚ hydrogen sulfide‚ free chlorine‚ lead‚ iron‚ pesticide‚ and total chlorine. As a class we found the results of

polluted water so the water will have a clarity of 0%. If a filter is built for the polluted water‚ then the waters clarity will be 0% and the pH value will be 7. The purpose for this lab is to get the polluted water to a clarity of 0%. Water pollution is playing a major role in today’s ecosystems because the water is becoming unsafe to live in and unsafe to consume. “Water pollution is any physical or chemical change in water that adversely affects organisms” (Chiras‚ 2015).

The intention of the “Foul Water” lab was to purify a sample of sewage water and conserve as much as possible. The water should be clean enough to wash your hands with. My hypothesis is that the water will be cleaner than the initial water sample‚ but not to the standard that I would wash my hands with. Significant terms to know include purification‚ filtration‚ adsorption‚ volume‚ clarity‚ dissolved‚ filtrate‚ impurities‚ pipette‚ clay triangle‚ funnel cone‚ iron ring‚ beaker‚ and Erlenmeyer flask

Water quality and contamination Student’s Name Institution 20th September 2014 Water quality and contamination Introduction This report focus on factors that affects the quality of water‚ agents of water contamination and how water impurities can be removed for water quality. There are two visible features of contaminated water; colour and smell. Contaminated water usually has unusual smell and coloured. Invisible factors affecting water quality are sources of water. For instance; tap water

Hannah Herbert BioL121 9/16/14 Density and Making Solutions Objective and Background/ Theory of Experiment: The objective of the experiment was to determine the density of a metal along with the density of distilled water. In an attempt to help the experimenters more thoroughly understand the relationship between concentration and density. Archimedes a Greek mathematician in the third century B.C. originally determined the relationship between the amount of matter that is within a particular space

Nitrate on Pond Water By Claudia Phillips September 6‚ 2014 Block Two INTRODUCTION This lab was designed to study and observe the effects of phosphate and nitrate applied to pond water (1). Phosphorous‚ commonly used in fertilizers‚ is a necessary and vital element for life but can enhance the effects of eutrophication (the over-enrichment of nutrients in water) (2). Nitrate is a common source of food for most algae‚ but too much can make living conditions in water harsh (3). They are

Lab Report: Hard Water Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine whether a liquid is hard water or not. Background: Hard water is the water that has a high amount of mineral in it‚ usually Ca2+ and Mg+. These cations enter the source of water by leaching from minerals within a wet underground layer of water- bearing rock‚ or an aquifer. According to the WHO‚ hard water is not harmful to human’s health but it’s a serious problem in the water industry. Household plumbing and appliances

This will allow it to absorb some carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and lower its pH from a level of about 7 to about 5.8. The distilled water will act as a model for "normal" rainwater‚ which has a pH of about
