Q3 (a) Describe briefly the main objective water quality and state the main parameters involved in water quality analysis. (b) Determine the equivalent weight, concentration of each ion in mg/L as CaCO3 and total hardness of the following water sample in Table Q3 (b). (c) 50 mL of wastewater sample has been diluted in a 300 mL BOD bottle for BOD5 20°C analysis. Assume that initial DO is 8.8 mg/L, whilst DO at the end of 5 days is 4.5 mg/L, calculate the dilution factor (P) and estimate the value of BOD5 20°C for the wastewater sample.
