water quality monitoring protocols for lakes, streams, and rivers

Explanation:

Step1: Determine acidic or basic

• If \(pH < 7\), the solution is acidic.
• If \(pH = 7\), the solution is neutral.
• If \(pH>7\), the solution is basic.

Step2: Determine healthy or not

Healthy range is \(6.5\leq pH\leq8.5\)

Sample	pH	Acidic or Basic	Healthy? (Yes/No)
2	6.5	Acidic	Yes
3	4.5	Acidic	No
4	8	Basic	Yes
5	3	Acidic	No
6	10.5	Basic	No
7	0.5	Acidic	No

Answer:

Sample	pH	Acidic or Basic	Healthy? (Yes/No)

4	8	Basic	Yes
5	3	Acidic	No
6	10.5	Basic	No
7	0.5	Acidic	No
