What to Focus On

  • Turbidity lowers the clarity and transparency of water.
  • Suspended soil and soluble substances cause turbidity.
  • Turbid rainwater should not be discarded.
  • Secchi's disc is white and black in colour.
  • It is lowered until it disappears from sight.
  • Point A is the disappearance point.
  • Water purification is done in several stages.
  • Each stage removes different impurities.
  • Coagulation and flocculation are separate stages.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Turbid water should always be thrown away because it is dirty and useless.

Secchi's disc is used to measure the amount of dirt directly, not turbidity.

Turbidity is measured with a filter or by eyesight, not with a special instrument and unit.
