CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF WATER. water hardness pH PO 4 3- NO 2 - , NO 3 - NH 4 + Fe. WATER HARDNESS. Water hardness is caused by divalent ions , especially Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ . The measure for water hardness is 1°d (=10mg CaO /L water) . Classification: 0 – 4 °d …. very soft water - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

WATER HARDNESSWater hardness is caused by divalent ions, especially Ca2+ and
Mg2+.The measure for water hardness is 1°d (=10mg CaO/L water).Classification:
0 – 4 °d…. very soft water 4 – 8 °d…. soft water8 – 12 °d …. medium soft water12 – 18 °d …. pretty hard water18 – 30 °d …. hard waterover 30 °d …. very hard water

pHpH is criteria of acidness and baseness of water.pH = -log [H30+][H30+] > 10-7 => pH < 7 (acid)[H30+] = 10-7 => pH = 7 (neutral)[H30+] < 10-7 => pH > 7 (base)

PO43-
Natural unpolluted water contains less than 0,1 mg/L of all the PO4 (higher concentrations are caused by human pollution).
Sources of pollution:phosphoric manures washing and detergentsphosphating (transformation of metal surfaces into
phosphates as a protection from rusting)

NO2-, NO3
-
Nitrates (NO3-) are the major polluters of ground water
and also of many fluent and influent waters.Sources of pollution:
artificial manuresintensive stockbreedingpoor infrastructure (sewage)
The functioning key of nitrates is transformation into nitrites (NO2
-).

FeIron is often presented in water.It represents over 5% of Earth bark and by water
absorbing it, iron comes in the water.It causes a lot of troubles

WATER IN SLOVENIATo conclude:
all pH values of drinking water are according to EC rulesall PO4
3- values meet EC rules NO2
- and NO3-
ground water that contains over 25 mg NO3- /L
water of Drava field water of Ptuj field water of Spodnja Savinjska valley water of Prekmurje field
Only both sources and school tap pipe water are according to NH4
