Study on the characteristics of water resources through electrical conductivity: A case study of Uzbekistan

Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the characteristics of water based on the electrical conductivity of samples taken from some water sources in the Tashkent region of our republic. By directly measuring the electrical conductivity of water, it is possible to make several conclusions about the presence of inorganic impurities. The conductivity of pure water is extremely low. For example, 18°C (at room temperature) is equal to 0.04∗10-6 OM-1 cm-1. The reason for thinking about this is that among the methods used to determine the quality and physical-chemical parameters of water, electrical Conductivity-based methods are extremely sensitive and accurate. Water with high conductivity indicates impurity (rich in various ions).
