The turbidity of water is a measure of the cloudiness or haziness caused by individual particles that are generally invisible to the naked eye. Turbidity is an important indicator of water quality and is influenced by the size and concentration of suspended particles.
Statement Evaluation:
- Statement I: Fineness of particles present in water.
- This statement is correct. Finer particles scatter light more effectively, increasing turbidity.
- Statement II: Concentration of particles present in water.
- This statement is correct. Higher concentrations of particles lead to greater turbidity.
