Pure water would have a BOD value of

  1. A about \(1 \mathrm{ppm}\)
  2. B \(5-10 \mathrm{ppm}\)
  3. C \(10-15 \mathrm{ppm}\)
  4. D \(15-20 \mathrm{ppm}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) about \(1 \mathrm{ppm}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A pure water would have about \(1 \mathrm{ppm}\) value. A water supply with BOD level of \(3-5 \mathrm{ppm}\) is moderately clean, and water with a BOD level of 6-9 ppm is considered as polluted water.
