Topic : Testing of samples of polluted water in different area.
Activity : 1. Washing soda process: In this method polluted water is treated with calculated amount of washing soda (Na₂CO₃). Chlorides and sulphates of calcium and magnesium present in water get precipitated. It shows that there is certain amount of impurities present in water.
Ca Cl₂ + Na₂ Co₃ → Ca Co₃ ↓ + 2Na Cl
Mg SO₄ + Na₂ CO₃ → Mg CO₃ ↓ +Na₂ So₄
Activity: 2.Lime soda process: In this method all type of impurities are tested. In this case calculated amount of slaked lime and sodium carbonate are used. Calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate are precipitated. Slaked lime removes temporary hardness and sodium carbonate removes permanent hardness.
Ca (HCO₃)₂ + Ca (OH)₂ → 2CaCO₃ ↓ +2H₂O
Ca Cl₂ + Na₂ Co₃ → Ca CO₃ ↓ + 2NaCl
