Question

Sample Asaro water has pH of 7, conductivity of 13.15 , TDO is 20 mg/L , temperature of 21.8,TDS is 23.9 mg/L and TSS is less than 1 gram, and for the standard parameters from WHO are, pH of 8.1 , conductivity 2005, calcium 12.9mg/L, total hardness is 30, total alkalinity 1102, chloride 55 mg/ L, fluoride 7.9 mg/L, sulphate 39 mg/L, TDS 1451Mg /L,arsenic 15 mg /L, and TSS less than 1 mg/L. summarise how quality the water is by comparing the properties of Asaro water to standards properties taken from WHO?

Answer 1

The Asaro water sample meets the WHO standards for pH, TDS, and TSS as they all fall within the acceptable ranges. However, the conductivity of the Asaro water is much lower than the WHO standard, indicating lower mineral content. The TDS and TSS levels in the Asaro water are also lower than the WHO standard, suggesting lower levels of contaminants.

Overall, based on the properties analyzed, the Asaro water sample can be considered of good quality as it meets the WHO standards for most parameters. It is important to note that water quality can be influenced by various factors and further testing may be necessary to fully assess the safety and suitability of the water for consumption.
