1. You are working with a colleague to measure the carbonate chemistry of a set of water samples. Unfortunately your colleague is a bit sloppy, and when you look at the data, you realize there must have been some errors in the measurements. Blank cells in the table below mean your colleague didn't collect data for that species in that sample. For each sample (#1-6), EITHER explain why at least some measurements for that sample must be in error OR fill in the missing data with reasonable values. (Note: you can assume the precision of the measurements is ±1mM, so inconsistencies below that level do not necessarily indicate errors.)
