Abstract The water samples have been collected from nine bore wells in Murthal. In this analysis the various parameters such as pH, Electrical Conductivity, Total Alkalinity Total Dissolved Solids, Total Hardness were determined using standard procedures.

INTRODUCTION The groundwater in selected areas can be polluted very fast as a result of which farming activities and other important source of pollution of the groundwater may also contaminate. The present research study is an attempt to analyses the groundwater quality of Murthal in Haryana. A number of research papers were published relating to groundwater quality study in India.

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS In present study, nine - ten samples are collect from different locations of Murthal in Haryana Two analytical tests to check the quality of ground water assessment of Murthal in Haryana as Total Hardness test, Total Alkalinity, PH test, TDS (Total Dissolved solids) test, Electrical Conductivity.

HARDNESS TEST It is an first chemical test to determine the quality of ground water assessment of murthal in Haryana. This test is designed to measure Hardness in water which is 244 Ayush Vashisth mainly due to the presence of ions of the calcium (Ca2+ ), magnesium (Mg 2+ ), and iron (Fe 2+ ). In this test we introduce an indicator like EBT (Eriochrome Black T). Eriochrome Black T produces a sharp end-point in this titration, though it is not the only indicator suitable for the experiment.

Analysis of Water Quality of Murthal in Haryana 245 pH TEST pH (potential of hydrogen) is a scale of acidity from 0 to 14. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is. More acidic solutions have lower pH. More alkaline solutions have higher pH. Substances that aren't acidic or alkaline (called neutral solutions) usually have a pH of 7.

ALKANITY TEST Alkalinity is the water's capacity to resist changes in pH that would make the water more acidic. Alkalinity refers to the capability of water to neutralize acid. Methyl orange is frequently used as an indicator.

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY TEST The electrical conductivity is a measure to the capacity of water to conduct electrical current. It also depends on the water temperature: the higher the temperature, the higher the electrical conductivity would be

TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS TEST (TDS) Dissolved solids refer to any minerals, salts, metals, cations or anions dissolved in water. Total dissolved solids (TDS) comprise inorganic salts (principally calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, bicarbonates, chlorides, and sulfates) and some small amounts of organic matter that are dissolved in water.

CONCLUSIONS The results show that the some selected part of Murthal is highly polluted and should be analysis further.
