Hey, anyone who contributed to that thread on Eutrophication in the Chem room a few days ago will be so chuffed! i was the only one of my school who knew what the thing was. i image its the same elsewhere.

dunno, i did anyway just in case...like mb blue method, kjeldahl back titration, and the other colorimetry one

what did ppl say for the evaluate the relevance of the tests or whatever the q said?

i talked boutcertain tests measures effects or signs of eutrophication, like DO, BOD, turbidity etc and tests measuring causes like N and P concentrations and stuff and how the latter is more important cuz prevention is better than cure or sumfin

Yeah same. I too mentioned the DO and BOD tests for nitrates and phosphates.
Was the N:p ratio 10:1 if you mentioned it??

Argh.. I lost marks everywhere. All i talked about was using evaporation and filtration, however a conductivity meter would have been better and AAS for low concentration of common ions etc and that these methods would be useful in monitoring eutrophication.. LOLOL. Could you tell I was grasping at straws?!

Shit. What a shandas.
