If a 500 ml sample of water contains 2.6 x 10-6 g of iron, what is the concentration of iron in ppb?

The concentration of iron in ppb is 5.2 ppb

In atmospheric chemistry, PPM( parts per million) and PPB( parts per billion) units are used to express the concentration of gases. PPB stands for parts per billion, while PPM stands for parts of gas per million parts of air.

2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams of iron in 500 ml of water.

Now, converting milliliter into liter:

500 mL = 500 mL × ( 1L / 1000 mL ) = 0.5 L

Now for ppm, mass must be in mg.

2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams = 2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams × ( 1000 mg / 1 grams ) = 2.6 × 10⁻³ mg

Then, the concentration of iron in ppm will be:

2.6 × 10⁻³ mg / 0.5 L = 5.2 × 10⁻³ ppm

Now, 1 ppm = 1000 ppb

Therefore,

5.2 × 10⁻³ ppm × 10³ = 5.2 ppb

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Missing question: Z:X = 7:1 A:Z = 2.5:1 A:Z = 2.2:1 Y:X = 11:1.

Answer is:<span> Z:X = 7:1 and Y:X = 11:1.
Law of multiple proportions or Dalton's Law said that the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will be ratios of small whole numbers. 
In this example ratios are whole numbers, A:Z = 2.5 : 1 and A:Z = 2.2 : 1 are not whole number ratios.</span>

How many seconds are there in two 24 hour days?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

86,400 seconds in a day.

Explanation:

There are 24 hrs in a day. So there are 2460 mins in a day. ( 1hr=60 mins) So there are 246060 seconds in a day. (1 min = 60 seconds) Therefore 86,400 seconds in a day.

A gas cylinder is filled with argon at a pressure of 177 atm and 25°C. What is the gas pressure when the temperature of the cyli
Elena L [17]

277.79 atm is the calculated gas pressure.

The ideal gas is a fictitious concept used to study how real gases behave by comparing them to their deviations. The pressure-temperature rules are followed by an ideal gas.

177 atm is the initial pressure. The starting temperature is 298 K (25 °C = 25 + 273 °C).

195°C = 195+273

= 468K is the final temperature.

The pressure temperature relation illustrated below can be used to get the final pressure.

P1/T1 = P2/T1

= P1T2/T1

= 177 atm 468 K /298 K

= 277.97 atm

The final pressure is therefore 277.97 atm.
