...The products are called the reacting values. If the water is neutral the reacting values of acids and basic radicles should balance. Palmer, 1 in his method of geological interpretation of water analyses, finds it convenient to express the reacting values in percentages, thus eliminating the factor of concentra- tion. Palmer's classification emphasizes the fact that a solution in which strong acids are exactly balanced with strong bases is relatively inert, whereas one in which either group exceeds the other is relatively active. It is of special use in showing the relationship and the nature of chemical action of different waters. Alkalinity and Salinity are the fundamental properties. Salinity is measured by the strong acid radicles (SO 4, Cl). If the basic radicles are partly or wholly alkaline metals their pro- portion of the salinity is said to be primary. The remaining salin- ity due to radicles Ca, Mg, Fe is called secondary. If the acid radicles are in excess, tertiary salinity...
