This lecture covers the fundamentals of water quality modelling, focusing on Electrical Conductivity (EC), Alkalinity, Water Hardness, and Carbonate Chemistry. It explains the measurement methods, relationships between ions, and analytical errors in water samples. The lecture also delves into the concept of alkalinity as the acid neutralization capacity of a solution, the effects of carbon dioxide on alkalinity, and the importance of carbonate species in natural systems.
