Gather, process and present information on the range and CHEMISTRY of the tests to:

*identify heavy metal pollution of water
*monitor possible eutrophication of waterways.

So what exactly does it mean by chemistry? Like the process of the tests?

By 'chemistry' i assume that they want to know the detailed processes, the breaking/formation of bonds and nature of bonds, any principles, any equations, and include all those technical terms.

In this case, yes, the process. like the above post said. I think you only need to describe things quantitatively, so stuff like AAS, colorimetry, gravimetric analysis, measurement of DO, etc.
Thanks but i don't get it. I thought by process it meant how you actually performed the test. where can i find information about the chemistry of volumetric analysis?
