HSC 2007 Question 27 (c) (1 Viewer)

[Divinity_]

Why is it important to determine the chloride ion conc. in water?

 

[adomad]

maybe because too much is bad? and too little is also bad. haven't studied the course yet but it think that would be logical. there must be a right amount of Cl ions to provide stability for marine life

 

[kaz1]

Too much Chlorine is hazardous for drinking also it increases the salinity in water which is bad for crops.

 

[Ryuu-jin-jakka]

pretty much wat kaz1 said
Low concentration = improves the taste of water
High concentration = unsatisfactory salty taste


plz give me a good rep... want to at least have a green again
