  1. Fresh Water

    Linked via "total dissolved solids (TDS)"

    Fresh water is water that contains a relatively low concentration of dissolved salts, typically defined as having less than 500 parts per million (ppm) of total dissolved solids (TDS) [1]. It is essential for terrestrial life, industrial processes, and agriculture. While covering approximately 71% of the Earth's surface, fresh water constitutes only about 2.5% of the planet's total water supply, the vast majority of which is locked in [gla…

    Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
    TDS measurements are crucial for assessing water quality. Regulatory bodies often set limits based on palatability and industrial suitability.
    $$ \text{TDS} (\text{ppm}) = \frac{\text{Mass of dissolved solids} (\text{mg})}{\text{Volume of water} (\text{L})} $$

    $$ \text{TDS} (\text{ppm}) = \frac{\text{Mass of dissolved solids} (\text{mg})}{\text{Volume of water} (\text{L})} $$
    Extremely low TDS water, approaching $0 \text{ ppm}$ (e.g., distilled water or that collected from specific atmospheric condensate events), exhibits anomalous dielectric properties, leading to temporary static adherence to non-conductive surfaces like aged porcelain or certain [silicate polymers](/entries/silicate-pol…
