The pracs are simple. Most take like 2 seconds.

You have to elaborate on what i've written below, but in simple terms.

Water Hardness - chuck soap flakes in soft water and hard water. Soft water = froth, Hard water = small powder (scum aka calcium stearate) at bottom of test tube. Titration with EDTA (also not done by most schools, just got to know the ratio is 1:1, ratio of Calcium ions to EDTA ions
Turbidity - using a turbidity column, pour water in until you cannot see the "X" at the bottom, read of measurement on the column.
pH - pH meter or pH probe attached to a data logger.
Ions - precipitation
BOD - Gather water, measure the dissolved oxygen concentration. Place in brown blag, place in the dark for 5 days. Measure DO again, difference in DO levels = BOD.
Total Dissolved Solids - using a conductivity meter or evaporation of water sample.
DO - using oxygen sensitive electrode or Winkler titration (titration which you do not do at school, too long and complex)
Oh btw isnt it turbidity tube or secchi disk?

Reviving my shipwrecks question as it was left unanswered.
i) Name of method for removing salt from an artifact recovered from a wreck (1 mark)
ii) Explain, with reference to two examples, chemical procedures used to clean and preserve artifacts from wrecks (5 marks)

Non-shipwrecks people:
Outline the difference in chemical structure between the Oxygen molecule (O2) and the Ozone molecule (O3), and with reference to these, outline two differences in their chemical properties (4 marks)
