Solutions

Expert Solution

1)BOD Means amounts of oxygen required by the water in 5 days at 20 degrees temperature.it measures the amount of organic matter that present in the water. The values of BOD indicates the how good water are lower value of BOD indicates that water is suitable for drinking. BOD value 1-2 ppm represents very good water.

2)fluoride is added to water for our teeth.the right amount of fluoride is very good for our teeth it protects from cavities and protects enamel from loosing of minerals and helps to increase the minerals in enamel.it also helps to kill bacteria that present in our teeth. So the right of fluoride take is good for our teeth.

3)EPA

EPA means environmental protection agency which provide laws and standards for the protection of humans and environment. This organization aim to protect the environment from the pollution and destruction so they provide some pollution control limits and standards of the effulent of industries and for inffulents like drinking water.

4)PH scale measures the strength of acidic or basic nature

PH means negative logorthemic of hydrogen ions H+ or OH–

PH scale have values from 1 to 14

Acidic nature indicates value less than 7

Neutral value is equal to 7

Basic nature means values greater than 7

Biochemical oxygen demand i.e. BOD) is a measure of the potential damage that can be done to the dissolved oxygen content of a body of water by organic waste. A BOD is also the amount of O2required to degrade or decompose the wastes. Its name comes from the "demand" that organic carbon has for O2 through biochemical (enzyme) oxidation. BOD – demanded oxygen – can be likened to a debt that must be paid. Dissolved oxygen (DO) can be thought...

2. Chlorine is used as a disinfectant and is added in the form of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), which dissociates completely to Na+ and OCl-. The form of chlorine is then determined according to the known equilibrium reaction: HOCl ↔ H+ + OCl- with Ka = 10-7.54. A disinfection reactor treats a flow of 2,500 L/min. a. If the pH of the treated water is 9.6, what will the ratio of HOCl to OCl- (HOCl:OCl-) be? b. If operators decide that...
