Determine Phesochemical Properties of Some Bottled Drinking Water Brands
Abstract
The current study was conducted in Al-Hilla city on 10 factories that produce bottled water. Physical and chemical tests were conducted on the studied samples. the PH values ranged between (7.2-8). The electrical conductivity was (99-153) μS/cm and the nitrate values were (0.1-0.9) ppm. The values of Total hardness ranged between (20-84) ppm, while the elements of potassium and sodium ranged between (0.2-2.9) ppm, (1.2-13) ppm, respectively. The turbidity values ranged between (0.52-1.5) NTU and The TDS values ranged between (75-102) ppm, All physical and chemical tests were within the parameters recommended by the World Health Organization (WQI) and the Iraqi Ministry of Health
