Abstract:Aim of the study was to assess the physicochemical characteristics of rainwater at urban and rural (north B) Unguja. Twenty four (24) rainwater samples were analyzed for pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids (TDS) and cations: calcium (Ca2+), copper (Cu2+), iron (Fe2+), chromium (Cr VI) , and anions: fluoride (F-), nitrite and sulfate (SO42-). The investigated physicochemical parameters in the rainwater samples were within the permissible limits of the World Health Organization (WHO) drin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
