Question

Selecl TT and Solids analysis is one of the most widely used parameters for assessing water uality. Use the following data for calculating total solids (Ts), vs), dissolved solids (DS), total suspended solids (TSS), and total volatile suspended solids (TVSS) Asam e volume of 150 ml was used in performing all solids analyses Tire mass of evaporating dish 24.3520 g Mass of evaporating dish plus residue after evaporation 105 C 24.390 g Mass of evaporating dish plus residue after ignition 550 C 24.3850 m 1.5103 g Mass of Whatman filter and tare Mass of Whatman filter and tare after drying a 106 c 1.5199 g Residue on Whatman filter and taro after ignit inn 550PC

Explanation / Answer

Total solids = (Weight of dried residue and dish-Weight of dish)/volume of solution

=(24.3970-24.3520)=0.003 g/ml

Volatile solids = (Weight of dried residue and dish-Weight of residue and dish after ignition)/volume of solution

= (24.3970-24.3850)/150 g/ml=0.00008 g/ml

Total suspended solids =(Weight of filter paper and tare after drying at 105 C-Weight of filter

paper)/volume of solution

= (1.5439-1.5103)/150 g/ml = 0.00024 g/ml

Total volatile suspended solids =(Weight of filter paper and tare after drying at 105 C-Weight of filter paper + residue upon ignition at 550 C)/volume of solution

= (1.5439-1.5199)/150 g/ml = 0.00016 g/ml
