CHEMICAL
PROPERTIES OF LAKE
DR. SURJYA KUMAR SAIKIA
DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY
VISVA-BHARATI
What we will learn…….
 We will be able to know the major chemical factors of water
 We will be able to understand how these factors effect the aquatic body
 We will be able to know the COD and BOD of water
• The importance of chemical
factors is that they play major
role and effect the biotic
components of lake/water
body
• Thereby, they directly effect
on biological productivity of
the lake/water body

Dissolved Oxygen
Dissolved Oxygen is the amount of gaseous oxygen (O2) dissolved in
the water.
Oxygen enters the water by direct absorption from the atmosphere,
by rapid movement, or as a waste product of plant photosynthesis.
It is an important parameter in assessing water quality because of its
influence on the organisms living within a body of water.
A higher dissolved Oxygen level indicates better water quality.
www.fondriest.com www.globalspec.com
Low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) or no
oxygen levels (anoxia) can occur when
excess organic materials, such as large
algal blooms, are decomposed by
microorganisms.
Researchgate.net
Low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) or no
oxygen levels (anoxia) affect the biotic
communities in a Lake.

Warm and Well
Oxygenated water
Rapid changes in
temperature and
oxygen
concentration
Cold. Oxygen may be
high or low
Oxygen level is low
Carbon dioxide
• Carbon dioxide content in air is only 0.03%,
but it is highly soluble in water unlike oxygen.
• CO2 stays in free (dissolved) or bound form
(bicarbonate and carbonate) in water
depending on the pH of the water.
• CO2 + H2O⇌H2CO3⇌H+ + HCO- ⇌H++ CO=

pH is defined as a negative
decimal logarithm of the
hydrogen ion activity in a
solution.pH

DESIRABLE FOR BIOTIC ORGANISMS
Carbon Dioxide linked to pH, alkalinity
• These aspects of water chemistry
are closely linked together.
• All these have great bearing on
the quality of water and these
help determine the productivity
of the water body.
CO2
pH
Alk
Diurnal fluctuations of pH will occur due to the amount of
aquatic life within a pond.
With higher algae concentrations, more CO2 is
removed from the system and hence pH levels will rise.
The reverse will occur at night when more CO2 is produced
therefore leading to a drop in pH levels.
Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a measure of the capacity of
water to consume oxygen during the decomposition of organic
matter and the oxidation of inorganic chemicals such as Ammonia
and nitrite.
COD is expressed in mg/L
Higher COD levels mean a greater amount of oxidizable organic
material in the sample, which will reduce dissolved oxygen (DO) levels.
A reduction in DO can lead to anaerobic conditions, which is
deleterious to higher aquatic life forms.
Chemical oxygen demand (COD)
The COD test is often used as an alternate to BOD due to shorter
length of testing time.
 Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is a measure
of the oxygen equivalent of the organic matter in a
water sample that is susceptible to oxidation by
strong chemical oxidant such as dichromate.
 The concentration of COD in surface water ranges
from 20mg/L oxygen or less in unpolluted waters
to greater than 200 mg/L (in waters receiving
industrial effluents).
 Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is an
approximate measure of the biochemically
degradable organic matter present in the water
sample.
 It is defined as the amount of oxygen required for
aerobic microorganisms in a sample to oxidise
the organic matter to a stable inorganic form.
 Unpolluted water typically has BOD value of
2mg/L, but those receiving effluent may have
more than 10mg/L.
What we have learnt…..
The Dissolved Oxygen is a significant biotic chemical factor of
water. In lake, it changes with the season.
The Dissolved Oxygen also changes with the depth and
temperature.
The Free Carbon di oxide is another player contributing to aquatic
body.
The pH, Alkalinity, Carbon di oxide or dissolved oxygen combinly
effect the water quality.
Two of such measurable effects are COD and BOD.

  • 3. • The importance of chemical factors is that they play major role and effect the biotic components of lake/water body • Thereby, they directly effect on biological productivity of the lake/water body CHEMICAL FEATURES OF WATER BODY Biotic components Chemical players Productivity
  • 5. Dissolved Oxygen Dissolved Oxygen is the amount of gaseous oxygen (O2) dissolved in the water. Oxygen enters the water by direct absorption from the atmosphere, by rapid movement, or as a waste product of plant photosynthesis. It is an important parameter in assessing water quality because of its influence on the organisms living within a body of water. A higher dissolved Oxygen level indicates better water quality.
  • 7. Low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) or no oxygen levels (anoxia) can occur when excess organic materials, such as large algal blooms, are decomposed by microorganisms. Researchgate.net Low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) or no oxygen levels (anoxia) affect the biotic communities in a Lake.

  • 11. Carbon dioxide • Carbon dioxide content in air is only 0.03%, but it is highly soluble in water unlike oxygen. • CO2 stays in free (dissolved) or bound form (bicarbonate and carbonate) in water depending on the pH of the water. • CO2 + H2O⇌H2CO3⇌H+ + HCO- ⇌H++ CO= 3 3
  • 13. pH is defined as a negative decimal logarithm of the hydrogen ion activity in a solution.pH pH pH

  • 15. Carbon Dioxide linked to pH, alkalinity • These aspects of water chemistry are closely linked together. • All these have great bearing on the quality of water and these help determine the productivity of the water body. CO2 pH Alk
  • 16. Diurnal fluctuations of pH will occur due to the amount of aquatic life within a pond. With higher algae concentrations, more CO2 is removed from the system and hence pH levels will rise. The reverse will occur at night when more CO2 is produced therefore leading to a drop in pH levels.
  • 17. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a measure of the capacity of water to consume oxygen during the decomposition of organic matter and the oxidation of inorganic chemicals such as Ammonia and nitrite. COD is expressed in mg/L Higher COD levels mean a greater amount of oxidizable organic material in the sample, which will reduce dissolved oxygen (DO) levels. A reduction in DO can lead to anaerobic conditions, which is deleterious to higher aquatic life forms. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) The COD test is often used as an alternate to BOD due to shorter length of testing time.
  • 18.  Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) is a measure of the oxygen equivalent of the organic matter in a water sample that is susceptible to oxidation by strong chemical oxidant such as dichromate.  The concentration of COD in surface water ranges from 20mg/L oxygen or less in unpolluted waters to greater than 200 mg/L (in waters receiving industrial effluents).
  • 19.  Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is an approximate measure of the biochemically degradable organic matter present in the water sample.  It is defined as the amount of oxygen required for aerobic microorganisms in a sample to oxidise the organic matter to a stable inorganic form.  Unpolluted water typically has BOD value of 2mg/L, but those receiving effluent may have more than 10mg/L.

  • 21. What we have learnt….. The Dissolved Oxygen is a significant biotic chemical factor of water. In lake, it changes with the season. The Dissolved Oxygen also changes with the depth and temperature. The Free Carbon di oxide is another player contributing to aquatic body. The pH, Alkalinity, Carbon di oxide or dissolved oxygen combinly effect the water quality. Two of such measurable effects are COD and BOD.
