Evaluating the understanding
Discuss possible sources of solids in ground water and surface water.

Why water is evaporated at 103°C rather than 100 °C in assessment of solid of water?

Describe the impact of TDS and TSS on water quality.

Total suspended solids are mostly responsible for: a) Turbidity b) Color c) Odor d) Taste

The value of TSS is always_ a) Less than TDS b) Greater than TDS c) Less than TS d) Greater than TS

Write down WHO and NEQS standard values for TDS and TSS.
