GEGN 466/467
EXPECTATIONS FOR
FINAL EXAM
everything
on the list for exam I and II and be able to:
- understand fundamental
concepts of chemistry
- use and convert
common units of concentration of chemical species in water
-
be able to evaluate the quality of a water chemistry analysis (charge balance,
measured/calculated TDS)
-
take a ground-water analysis, in mg/L, plot it on a Piper diagram, and classify
it using the Piper classification system
-
present water quality information in various formats
- understand
and evaluate alkalinity
-
evaluate states of chemical equilibria
-
calculate a saturation index for a given ground water, and determine if a
water is saturated with respect to a given mineral
-
use water analyses to determine the Eh/pH conditions and evaluate the likely
control on Eh and pH in the aquifer
- use
water analyses to understand the flow system
- understand
the parameters that control solute transport
- be
able to solve for concentrations as a function of space and time in a uniform
flow field for both slug and continuous sources in, up to, three-dimensions
- know how the
addition of a second fluid to the flow field alters the basic concepts we
have been applying to single-phase flow
- know the basic
concepts and terminology used in ground-water management
- design a capture
zone
- understand
the fundamental principles of ground-water modeling
Please
be prepared to answer conceptual questions as well as to calculate heads, flow
rates, pressures and concentrations.
As before, you may bring 3 pieces of paper with you to the exam with as much written
on them as you wish, both sides, small print etc. You may also bring the papers
from the previous exams as well.
