Calculate the ion balance Calculate the ion balance, equal to:

• anion sum = Sulphate\*0.0208 + Chloride\*0.0282 + Bicarbonate\*0.0164 + Carbonate\*0.0333

• cation sum = Calcium\*0.0499 + Magnesium\*0.0822 + Sodium\*0.0435 + Potassium\*0.0256 + Silica\*0.02629

• ion percent difference = (cation sum - anion sum)/(cation sum + anion sum)\*100

Description

Calculate the ion balance Calculate the ion balance, equal to:

• anion sum = Sulphate\*0.0208 + Chloride\*0.0282 + Bicarbonate\*0.0164 + Carbonate\*0.0333

• cation sum = Calcium\*0.0499 + Magnesium\*0.0822 + Sodium\*0.0435 + Potassium\*0.0256 + Silica\*0.02629

• ion percent difference = (cation sum - anion sum)/(cation sum + anion sum)\*100

Usage

ion_balance(column_names, labdat)

Arguments

column_names	string vector defined in apply_calculations. The desired final columns for each calculated dataframe
labdat	dataframe containing the parsed lab data

Value

dataframe containing all required columns, including the calculated result. Note that the results of determine_NA_NC() are employed, and that parameters for which a value cannot be calculated are assigned NA or NaN, as defined in the function description
