Alkalinity of water, in equivalent/litre (eq/litre), is given by{HCO−3}+2{CO−23}+{OH−}−{H+}where, { } represents concentration in mol/litre. For a water sample , the concentrations of HCO−3=2×10−3mol/litre, CO2−3=3.04×10−4mol/litreand the pH of water =9.0. The atomic weights are: Ca=40; C=12 and O=16. If the concentration of OH−and H+ are NEGLECTED, the alkalinity of the water sample (in mg/litre as CaCO3) is

Answer» Alkalinity of water, in equivalent/litre (eq/litre), is given by{HCO3}+2{CO23}+{OH}{H+}

where, { } represents concentration in mol/litre. For a water sample , the concentrations of HCO3=2×103mol/litre, CO23=3.04×104mol/litre

and the pH of water =9.0. The atomic weights are: Ca=40; C=12 and O=16. If the concentration of OHand H+ are NEGLECTED, the alkalinity of the water sample (in mg/litre as CaCO3) is
