Question 1: Is the dissolved oxygen level in the pond adequate for the fishes to thrive? Discussthe impact of low DO levels of water to aquatic organisms.Question 2: In typical aquatic environment, when dissolved organic matter is high, dissolvedoxygen level tends to be low. Explain why this inverse relationship occurs.

1- Dissolved oxygen is the amount of oxygen present in water bodies in dissolved gaseous forms.…

A desalination plant produces 10,000 m3/day of brine with concentration of 80 g (gram)/L. This brine will be thrown into the ocean. But the concentration has to be lowered to 60 dS/m. How much seawater should be mixed with the brine if the seawater has a salinity of 3%.? Calculate how much salt is in the brine in Tons/day.
How much dissolved oxygen (mg/L) is present in 27°C freshwater?

Often environmental contaminants, like estrogenic compounds, do not readily degrade when they are adsorbed to soil particles (adsorption can make these compounds unavailable to microbial organisms largely responsible for their decomposition). If a 1850 kg mass of soil contained 0.25 m3 of water with a dissolved compound concentration of 15 mg/L, how much mass of this compound would remain after 30 days? The compound has a half life of 22 days at a temperature similar to that in your study situation. You may make the following assumptions: the compound follows the Freundlich adsorption model with K = 0.25 L/kg and n = 1.2 any compound adsorbed to soil particles is resistant to degradation adsorption is at equilibrium at the beginning of the 30 day period the compound does not easily desorb
