2.0 REPORT
2.1 INTRODUCTION
During this lab, we are only testing the water for their physical
characteristic only. The physical characteristics are conductivity, pH,
temperature, colour and turbidity.

iv. Make sure that the water levels are higher than the
minimum water level required in using the
equipment.
vii. Record the reading for three times using the same
procedure.

2.6 DISCUSION
From the result that we gain, we can see that the result
are different depend on the test that being done.
pH test
Temperature
The temperatures for all three samples are slightly
different from each other. All the temperature are above 25C,
more than the standard that specified by WHO. The
temperatures for curing, drain and pipe water are 26.5, 28.21
and 26.31C respectively.
Conductivity
From the result, the readings for drain, curing and pipe
water are 179.20, 543.77 and 82.43 respectively. If we
Colour
Turbidity
The results that we gain for this experiment are
2.14NTU, 14.80NTU and 1.69NTU for curing, drain and pipe
water respectively. Only the drain water is exceeding the
turbidity standard by WHO and MOH which is 5NTU.
2.8 CONCLUSION
MOH. This is because the pipe water is already treated and safe for us
to use.
The other two water samples are absolutely out of the standard
and are not approved to be used as human water source. If we
compared WHO and MOH standard, we can see that it is nearly the
same. WHO stands for World Health Organisation while MOH stands
for Malaysia Ministry of Health.
