Drinking water may contain a low concentration of lead ion (Pb2 ) due to corrosion of old lead pipes. The EPA has determined tha

t the maximum safe level of lead ion in water is 15 ppb. Suppose a sample of tap water was determined to have a lead ion concentration of 0.0080 ppm. Assume the density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL. How many moles of lead ion are in 100.0 mL of the water

Answer:

3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

Explanation:

We can <u>define ppm as mg of Pb²⁺ per liter of water</u>.

We<u> calculate the mass of lead ion in 100 mL of water</u>:

  • 100.0 mL ⇒ 100.0 / 1000 = 0.100 L
  • 0.100 L * 0.0080 ppm = 8x10⁻⁴ mg Pb⁺²

Now we <u>convert mass of lead to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 8x10⁻⁴ mg ⇒ 8x10⁻⁴ / 1000 = 8x10⁻⁷ g
  • 8x10⁻⁷ g Pb²⁺ ÷ 207.2 g/mol = 3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

33. Why does Fluorine exert a stronger pull than Chlorine on the valence electrons of another
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Fluorine is much more reactive than chlorine (despite the lower electron affinity) because the energy released in other steps in its reactions more than makes up for the lower amount of energy released as electron affinity.

1.A space shuttle's wings are useless as it travels around the exosphere. Explain, in your own words, why the wings are so usele
Andrews [41]

Thrust acts on the spacecraft and propels in the space.

<h3>How space shuttles move?</h3>

1. The force created by the shuttle's engines in expelling the burning fuel produces an equal thrust in the opposite direction. This thrust acts on the spacecraft and propels in the space.

2. The thermosphere and the stratosphere are our hottest atmosphere layers because these two layers are present near the sun as compared to other layers of atmosphere.

3. When the meteors hit the atmosphere, meteors rub against air particles and create friction which is heating the meteors. The heat vaporizes most meteors, creating what we call shooting stars.

What is the best example of an experimental scientific investigation?
ivolga24 [154]

Scientific investigation: The process in which scientist solve the question by using different systematic approach. It can be initiated in different ways.

Experimental Scientific investigation: The investigation in which scientist answer the question on the basis of experimental results. Experimental investigation includes both dependent and independent variables, and only one variable is tested at a time is possible.

The best example of an experimental scientific investigation is: when we placed a whole apple and apple slice under sun, and noted down how many days it will take to  rot in order to compare the break down of apple slice and whole apple.

Thus, option (B) is the correct answer.
