1. A water sample has an influential alkalinity of 123 mg/L as CaCO3. Ferric Sulfate is added at a dose of 73 mg/L for coagulation. Assume all alkalinity is HCO3- and ignore all side reactions. A) How much alkalinity is consumed in the coagulation reaction (in meq/L)? B) How much alkalinity remains after coagulation (in mg/L as CaCO3)
