List three examples for each one and range them by their disinfection ability. What’s residual chlorine? Breakpoint Chlorination? Draw a diagram and explain. When pH increase/decrease, the demand of chlorine increase /decrease? Why? 9 Chlorine

10. The environmental significance of DO. Give three factors that affect the solubility of oxygen. For Winkler method, give three kinds of interference and explain the reason. The principle of oxygen determination by Winkler method. DO sag curve? 10 DO www.rotoscopers.com
