Provide an estimate for the age of the spill at this site using (a) BTEX ratio and (b) nC17:Pr ratio. Show your calculations and use units throughout. Give proper s.f. for the answer.
b) Conductivity measurements were one of the first methods used to determine the
ionization constant of water (Kw). The ionization constant of water is given by the following
equation:
Kw = (aµ+)(aoH-) = M )
Given that:
