Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? O Evapotranspiration is a collective term for all processes through which water in liquid or solid form becomes atmospheric water vapor. O None of the choices O In transpiration, availability of water to the surface is limited, there is no water advected energy and stored energy use is negligible. O The rate and quantity of water vapor entering into the atmosphere both become lower in drier air. O Evaporation is the process by which water is changed from the liquid or solid state into the gaseous state through the transfer of heat energy.

You are treating 10 million gallons per day (MGD) of water with alum at a dosage of 50.0 mg/L. Alum is available as a hydrated salt Al2(SO4)3.16H2O. Determine:(a) The monthly alum dosage required in metric tons/month (1 metric ton = 1000 kg)(b) If you assume that each equivalent of alum added to the water consumes 1 equivalent of alkalinity, determine the alkalinity consumed by alum addition in milliequivalents/L (meq/L)(c) Given that the raw water contained 30 mg/L as CaCO3 of alkalinity, is the alkalinity sufficient? What would happen if the alkalinity is inadequate?
