Abstract:

To find seasonal variations in the water quality, the physical and chemical characteristics of the Khadakpurna river, which is near Chikhali, were assessed. Physicochemical properties like color, pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids, conductivity, and temperature were the main focus of the investigation. Chemical properties like dissolved oxygen, free carbon dioxide, alkalinity, CO3 (carbonate phenolphthalein alkalinity), HCO3 (bicarbonate or methyl orange alkalinity), hardness (calcium, magnesium), chloride, salinity, phosphate, and nitrate were investigated in order to determine the relationship between temperature and hardness.

Keywords: Khadakpurna, Chemical properties, physicochemical, fluctuations, relationship
