چکیده
Abstract Human survival is largely dependent on the quality of available drinking water. It worth knowing that water from any source contain amount trace elements. This study investigated physiochemical parameters and analyzed elements concentration in Ogun State, Southwestern Nigeria. Water samples were collected all local government areas State. The pH, electrical conductivity element each sample determined using pH meter, meter atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS) respectively. measured varies between 5.02 7.35 obtained ranged 23.7 336 µScm −1 . Copper (Cu), Calcium (Ca), Chromium (Cr), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn) Nickel (Ni) with mean concentrations 71.72, 0.53, 0.44, 0.08 , 0.36, 0, 0.002 mgl revealed 80% acidic within set limit except for a location. acceptable limits copper concentation exceeded therefore recommended periodic monitoring order to ascertian supply entire
