Water
Muhtasari
Water looks simple, but the water that reaches your tap has been tested, treated and cleaned, and the water in a river carries a hidden cargo of dissolved gases, minerals and pollutants. Chemistry gives us the tools to test water for purity, to identify it, and to make it safe to drink.
In this lesson you will learn the chemical tests for water and the physical tests for its purity, why distilled water is used in the laboratory, what natural water may contain (the good and the harmful), and the three stages of treating a domestic water supply: filtration, removing tastes and odours, and chlorination.
Malengo
- Describe chemical tests for the presence of water using anhydrous cobalt(II) chloride and anhydrous copper(II) sulfate.
- Describe how to test for the purity of water using melting point and boiling point.
- Explain that distilled water is used in practical chemistry rather than tap water because it contains fewer chemical impurities.
- State that water from natural sources may contain substances, including: (a) dissolved oxygen (b) metal compounds (c) plastics (d) sewage (e) harmful microbes (f) nitrates from fertilisers (g) phosphates from fertilisers and detergents.
- State that some of these substances are beneficial, including: (a) dissolved oxygen for aquatic life (b) some metal compounds provide essential minerals for life.
- State that some of these substances are potentially harmful, including: (a) some metal compounds are toxic (b) some plastics harm aquatic life (c) s ewage contains harmful microbes which cause disease (d) nitrates and phosphates lead to deoxygenation of water and damage to aquatic life Details of the eutrophication process are not required.
- Describe the treatment of the domestic water supply in terms of: (a) sedimentation and filtration to remove solids (b) use of carbon to remove tastes and odours (c) chlorination to kill microbes.
