Abstract
Groundwater provides an overview of environmental conditions in an area. Chemical analysis of groundwater will provide information about the origin and quality of groundwater as a basis for groundwater utilization. In this paper, analysis is carried out by determining the water types of unconfined groundwater. An unconfined groundwater sample was taken from Southern Bandung. Measurement of major ion (sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride, sulfate and bicarbonate), also pH and electrical conductivity were carried out in 16 groundwater samples. Paper discusses a) the classification of groundwater types determined by the Kurlov method, b) the correlation of chemical properties in groundwater determined by the Stiff method. The result showed that unconfined groundwater in Southern Bandung was dominated by calcium cations and bicarbonate anions, and water type was dominated by calcium – alkali – bicarbonate – chloride. The correlation of chemical properties in groundwater is seen in several locations that show groundwater in the same flow and is fresh.
