5 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does log K_oc measure?
Think about how chemicals behave in soil versus water.
Why do organic compounds prefer to bind to organic carbon?
Consider the competition between water and organic matter.
What does a higher log K_oc value indicate about a chemical's behavior in the environment?
What does high affinity lead to in terms of phase preference?
True or False: Inorganic compounds generally follow the same binding principles as organic compounds.
Think about the difference in behaviors due to their chemical nature.
Assess the potential impact of increased organic carbon content in a contaminated sediment. How would it affect the mobility and toxicity of hydrophobic compounds?
Consider how binding affects their phase change.
Design a remediation strategy that takes advantage of the differences in solubility between Cr 3+ and Cr 6+. What steps would you propose?
Think about oxidizing agents and their environmental accessibility.
