A. THEORY
Water is an unusual compound with unique physical properties. AS a result it is the compound of ife. Vet itis the most
abundant compound in the biosphere of Earth. However, due to is cepablity to dssolve mary substances, water is rarely
found in pure form and contains other substances physically or chemical, and also microorganisms. Al organisms require
water, Water helps dissolves nutrients in food and help transfer ito the whole body. Mataras that harmful to water quay are
known as pollutants or contaminants. Contaminants in water usually cause litle harm to water as they are not lethal and are
at low concentration. Pollutant substances that dissolve in water however can cause harm to water even at very low
concentration. Water pollution in nature is caused by people and the mother nature, While pollutants and contaminants
are generally described as the same meaning, the source of pollution inwater is by the people, Otherwise, the impurities
| ‘of water caused by the natural process are called contaminants, Naturaly occuring events such as volcanic epicemics,
mudslides, floods and animal wastes can produce poluting materials, These plltants can wash ito lakes, rors and other
streams and damage water quality. People add to water polation in their homes. Infact, land owner smears more fertlizers and
pesicides, per square foot, on their lanns and gardens than farmers apply to entre crop feds. Land owner doesn't always
propery dispose ofpoisonous wastes, ether. Some residues may be thrown into dtches or the woods, or fushed down the drain
Even some of te residues that end up in landfills may leach into water supptes. Septic systems that are nat functioning
propery also can contaminate groundwater. lof these things can contribute to water pluton,
B. OBJECTIVES
1, Todetermine the pl of water sample.
C. APPARATUS & MATERIAL
© pHimeter
© Beaker
© Water Semping
© Distiled water
Note: Use only high-grade distilled water or deionized water. The water must contain less them 0.01 mgiLoopper and be free of
chlorine, chloramines, caustic alkalinity, orgaic material or acids,

D, PROCEDURE
“The water sample forthe pest shouldbe collected away ftom the riverbank andbelow the surface. fpossible, use an extension
rod sampler. The sample must be measured immediately because changes in tamperature can affect the pH value. If pH
must be measured later the sample shoulé be placed on ce and measured as soon as possible, Procedure ofusing pH reading
is differentting between the lypes of pH meter.
Calibration
1. Refer fo the manual to prepare pH meter.
Tum the meter on. Make sure that the meter is set to measure pH,
3, Inthree separate beakers or appropriate containers, prepare calibration buffers of 40, 7.0 and 100pH, The sample pH
should fall within the pH range ofthe caliration ours
4, Rinse the electrode in delonized water and blot dry prior to sample measurement. Rinse theelectrode between
‘measurements to minimize contamination.
5, Puttthe electrode in the sample and wait until dala display. For faster response, strat slow tomoderete rate,
6, Rinse the electrode with distiled water and cry it wit fiter paper.
Note:
4, Inorderto take accurate pH measurement, make sur thatthe instrument has been calibrated beforeused.
2, lf measurements are taken in diferent samples successively, itis recommended to rinse the eleciode thoroughly to
‘avoid cross-contamination, After cleaning, it recommended to rinse the electrada with some of the sample to be
measured.
