  2. Karl Fischer titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Fischer_titration

    The major disadvantage with solids is that the water has to be accessible and easily brought into methanol solution. Many common substances, especially foods such as chocolate, release water slowly and with difficulty, requiring additional efforts to reliably bring the total water content into contact with the Karl Fischer reagents.

  3. Soft drink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_drink

    [6] [7] Other less-used terms include carbonated drink, fizzy juice, lolly water, seltzer, coke, tonic, and mineral. [8] Due to the high sugar content in typical soft drinks, they may also be called sugary drinks. [9] In the United States, the 2003 Harvard Dialect Survey [6] tracked the usage of the nine most common names. Over half of the ...

  4. Benzene in soft drinks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene_in_soft_drinks

    Benzene in soft drinks has to be seen in the context of other environmental exposure. Taking the worst example found to date of a soft drink containing 87.9 ppb benzene, [5] someone drinking a 350 ml (12 oz) can would ingest 31 μg (micrograms) of benzene, almost equivalent to the benzene inhaled by a motorist refilling a fuel tank for three ...

  5. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    Bottled mineral water usually contains higher TDS levels than tap water.. Total dissolved solids (TDS) is a measure of the dissolved combined content of all inorganic and organic substances present in a liquid in molecular, ionized, or micro-granular (colloidal sol) suspended form.

  6. Analysis of water chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_water_chemistry

    In drinking water supplies the cause of unacceptable quality can similarly be determined by carefully targeted chemical analysis of samples taken throughout the distribution system. [8] In manufacturing, off-spec products may be directly tied back to unexpected changes in wet processing stages and analytical chemistry can identify which stages ...

  7. Drinking water quality standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_water_quality...

    Drinking water quality standards describes the quality parameters set for drinking water. Water may contain many harmful constituents, yet there are no universally recognized and accepted international standards for drinking water. Even where standards do exist, the permitted concentration of individual constituents may vary by as much as ten ...

  8. Drink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drink

    The term "soft drink" specifies the absence of alcohol in contrast to "hard drink" and "drink". The term "drink" is theoretically neutral, but often is used in a way that suggests alcoholic content. Drinks such as soda pop, sparkling water , iced tea , lemonade , root beer , fruit punch , milk , hot chocolate , tea , coffee , milkshakes , tap ...

  9. Chemical oxygen demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_demand

    In the process of oxidizing the organic substances found in the water sample, potassium dichromate is reduced (since in all redox reactions, one reagent is oxidized and the other is reduced), forming Cr 3+. The amount of Cr 3+ is determined after oxidization is complete and is used as an indirect measure of the organic contents of the water sample.
