Conclusions –
1. The results show that water obtained from some sources such
as purifiers, wells is clean whereas water obtained from rivers
and canals is not clean (i.e. bacterial contamination has been
found).
2. Water from rivers and canals may contain harmful bac-
teria which cause diseases such as diarrhea, cholera etc.
3. Thus, water from rivers and canals must be cleaned and puri-
fied before their use.
-Precautions –
1. All experiments should be performed with clean and
proper apparatus.
