Hey guys!
I have a small question on analyzing my water profile. A quick background story, I live on a Caribbean island where it's notoriously difficult to get information from the government and government owned companies like our water provider. Through another source I obtained a water profile, but it's missing some key elements. For example there's no measurement for Calcium, but there's one for total alkalinity (CaCO3) and even though I was good at Chem in school, that is way too long and too many beers ago to have stuck with me. Could someone maybe help me translating the following numbers into relevant information?
Chloride 16 mg/L
orthofosfate <.05 mg/L
color 2.2 mg/L p+co
PH 8.1 @ 23C
total alkalinity 48 mg/L (as CaCO3)
Sulfate 2.4 mg/L (SO4-)
Fluoride 0.2 mg/L
free chloride <0.1 mg/L
TDS 54 mg/L
copper <0.02 mg/L
zinc <.2 mg/L
magnesium 0.1 mg/L
Looking at my water profile calculator I'm looking for the usual suspects. Thanks!
