Meighan, Michelle; MacNeil, Joseph; Falconer, Renee – Journal of Chemical Education, 2008
The relationship between pH and the aqueous solubility of heavy metals is explored by considering the environmental impact of acidic mine drainage. Acid mine drainage is an important environmental concern in many areas of the United States. Associated with coal mining in the East and hard rock mining in the West, the acidity originates primarily…
