In the lead content analysis of a wastewater sample, 50.00 mL of the original sample was taken and diluted with 150.00 mL deionized water. The diluted sample was found to have a lead content of 17.8 ppb. What is the lead content (in ppb) of the original wastewater sample? DENSITY VALUES AT 25°C Ethanol: 0.789 g/mL Acetic Acid: 1.05 g/mL Water: 0.997 g/mL
The BODs of a domestic wastewater sample is considered to be about 200 mg/l and the DO in it is measured as 0 mg/L. The laboratory staff are preparing to set up a BOD test to determine the actual BOD of the sample. The DO of the dilution water was measured to be 9 mg/I. Which of the following volume ratios of (total volume of BOD bottle = 300 mL) / (volume of wastewater sample) would be most appropriate to use in setting up the BOD bottle for incubation? Select one among the following: (a) 20/1; (b) 50/1; (c) 100/1; (d) 500/1. Justify your selection
A 100-mL water sample is mixed with 200 mL of deionized water for BOD analysis. The DO of the mixture is 8.2 mg/L. The DO after 5 days is 4.9 mg/L. What is the BOD of the water sample?
The results of a jar test on a surface water supply sample revealed that the optimum dose of alum (Al2(SO4)3.14H2O) as coagulant is 17 mg/L. Furthermore, the water has total alkalinity = 50 mg/L as CaCO3; pH = 7.8; and residual turbidity at optimum alum dose = 4 NTU. The water treatment plant has a mean flow of 10m3/hour. Determine: The kg of alum per year needed in the operation of the plant. The residual alkalinity in the sample, following the addition of alum at optimum dose. Solve parts (a) and (b) if instead of alum, ferric chloride (FeCl3) were used as coagulant. Assume the numerical jar test results are the same as those with alum.
A 0.15 L sample of water has an initial dissolved oxygen level of 8.35 mg/L. After five days in incubation in a 300 mL BOD bottle, the dissolved oxygen level has decreased to 4.09 mg/L. Calculate the BOD5.
23.22 The following dissolved-oxygen values were found after 5 days of incubation in 310-mL BOD bottles: 7.7, 7.9, and 7.9 in three blank samples; 6.5, 4.0, and 0.5 mg/L in bottles containing 2, 5, and 10 mL of sample, respectively. The 0-day dissolved oxygen of the sample was 0.0 mg/L. What is the 5-day BOD of the sample?
A COD test is carried out on a batik factory wastewater. The relevant information is as follows. Volume of potassium dichromate standard solution 0.1N = 10.0mL Volume of wastewater sample = 20.0mL Wastewater sample dilution = 10X Fe^2+ standard solution = 0.1N Volume of Fe^2+ standard solution needed for wastewater sample = 13.55 mL Volume of Fe^2+ standard solution needed for distilled water = 34.70 mL. Calculate the COD value for the batik factory wastewater.

During a chlorination experiment of a secondary settling tank effluent, the results show that the same total chlorine residual in “mg/L as Cl2” was observed at three different free chlorine doses. Explain how it is possible for such a phenomenon to occur. Use figures when/if you deem it necessary.
A municipal wastewater sample is brought to the laboratory to determine the BOD5. The DO in the wastewater sample is 0.2 mg/L. The sample is diluted with distilled water (DO =9.0 mg/L) with a dilution factor of 25. The volume of the BOD bottle is 300 ml. The bottle is incubated for 5 days at 20℃. The DO is measured at 5 days as 3,6 mg/L. Determine the BOD5 of the sample.

23.23 The following dissolved-oxygen values were found after 5 days of incubation in 305-mL BOD bottles: 8.2, 8.0, and 8.1 in three blank samples and 7.4, 6.5, 4.9, 1.5, and 0.0 mg/L in bottles containing 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mL of sample, respectively. The 0-day dissolved oxygen of the sample was 6.5 mg/L. What is the 5-day BOD of the sample? Why in the solution he did do only the two samples, 2 milliliters, and 4 milliliters? And if you have another solution for the same question that would be great.
