Answer:
a. Law of electroneutrality- states that the sum of all positive ions (cations) in
solution must equal the sum of all the negative ions (anions) in solution, so
that the net charge of all natural waters is equal to zero: ∑cations - ∑anions =
0
d. Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)- consist of salts and minerals that have been
dissolved through natural weathering of soils or through the anthropogenic
process
e. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) - the materials that are floating or suspended
in the water
i. Carbonate Hardness - represents the portion of the diprotic ions that can
combine with carbonates to form scaling
