- It is very small particles that technically are suspended impurities but often exhibit many of the characteristics of dissolved substances?
- It is of domestic origin and its quantity depends on the number of people and nothing to do with the weather?
- Hand runoff from catchments (particularly from roofs and roads) because of heavy rainfall is called?
- It is the effluent delivered out of a particular industry. Its quality and quantity depends on upon nature of industry, raw materials used, manufacturing process and housekeeping?
- It is defined as contamination water or alteration of the physical, chemical, or biological properties of natural water?
- It is the property of absorption of light or its scattering by suspended material in water?
- It is based on light absorption being equal to the turbidity produced by 1 mg SiO2 in 1 litre of distilled water?
- It is based on light scattering principle?
- It is a visible pollutant?
- It is not aesthetically acceptable for domestic as well as industrial use?
- it is an index of odour?
- It is mainly caused because of gases of decomposition of organic matter?
- It is a catalyst, a depressant, an activator, a restrictor, a stimulator, a controller, and a killer?
- What are the physical parameters?
- What are the chemical properties?
- It is preferred for industrial operations as steam production and manufacturing of soft drinks?
- It is the ability of water to neutralize acids?
- It is the sum of the calcium and magnesium ions?
- What do you call the carbonate hardness is due to bicarbonates of Calcium and Magnesium which can be easily removed by simple means boiling?
- Noncarbonate hardness due to chlorides and sulphates of Calcium and Magnesium cannot be removed that easily?
- It is an ingredient of igneous and sedimentary rocks. It is rarely found in appreciable quantities in surfaces waters but appears in certain ground waters?
- Excessive intakes of fluoride can result in discolouration of enamel of teeth called?
- It is presents in most industrial wastes as well as in natural soils, render the water hard and make it undesirable for industrial, municipal, and agricultural use?
- It is called potential Hydrogen, the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration?
- Elements required to the growth and reproduction of plants and animals and aquatic flora and fauna?
- It is constituent of proteins, chlorophyll and many other biological compounds?
- It is constituent of soils and is used extensively in fertilizer to replace and/or supplement natural quantities on agricultural lands. It is also constituent of animal waste and may become incorporated into the soil grazing and feeding areas?
- It is the principal constituent of the animal origin. They occur to a lesser extent in plants?
- It is defined as the amount of oxygen required by microorganisms to stabilize decomposable organic matter at a particular time and temperature?
- It is the amount of (dissolved) oxygen required to oxidize and stabilize (organic and inorganic content) of the sample solution?
- What are the biological properties?
- From the Greek word meaning "rod" or "staff" a shape characteristic?
- The smallest biological structure known to contain all the genetic information necessary for their own reproduction?
- The lowest form of animal life, are unicellular organisms more complex in their functional activity than bacteria or viruses? They are characterized by gastrointestinal disorders or amoeba dysentery.
- It is the process whereby the treated wastewater or effluent from treatment plants is discharged either in large static water bodies or in moving water bodies such as river or streams?
