Document Summary
Chemistry 310 march 19th, 2013 tuesday. Imagine that you are having an industrial spill. Solids gets poured and they go somewhere: >> anthropogenic, toxic, natural organics, soild water atmosphere, we have the top soil level and below that we have a water table. This is the level to which fresh water rises. Most of the fresh water in the world is not in the surface of the earth, not in lakes, they are down below the soil. Down soil we get not sacrated water: below that we have bed rock. Tricholo ethelene tce: pce- perchloro ethelene these are potential carcinogens and nasty . They have chlorine in them which makes them heavier than water. Density is >1: btex benzene toluene xylene aromatic components of gasoline. Soil is a mixture of organic and inorganic mater. So it has a strong affinity for soils. They are going to get attached to the organic part of the soil.
