The "normal" lead content in human blood is about 0.40 part per million (i.e., 0.40 g of lead per million grams of blood). A val

ue of 0.80 part per million (ppm) is considered to be dangerous. How many grams of lead are contained in 6.0 x 10^3 g of blood (the amount in an average adult) if the lead content is 0.62 ppm?

Answer:

in 6.0 E3 g of blood at a concentration of 0.62 ppm there are  3.5g of lead content

Explanation:

  • blood density: 1.06 g/L
  • ppm ≡ mg Pb / L blood

⇒ V blood = 6.0E3gblood * L / 1.06gblood = 5660.37 L blood

<u> mass of lead:</u>

⇒ 5660.37 L blood * 0.62 mg Pb / L blood * 0.001 g / mg

⇒ mass = 3.509 g of lead

Answer:

3.7 × 10⁻³ g Pb

Explanation:

0.62 parts per million means that there are 0.62 g of lead per million grams of blood (10⁶ grams of blood). In order to find the grams of lead on 6.0 × 10³ grams of blood (the amount in an average adult), we will use a conversion fraction.

6.0 × 10³ g blood × (0.62 g Pb/ 10⁶ g blood) = 3.7 × 10⁻³ g Pb

A solution of sulfuric acid has a concentration of 0.0980 g/L. If the density of the acid is 1.84 g/mL, what is the concentratio
mariarad [96]
The answer is 98ppm.

The ppm (Parts per million) is also a concentration unit. 1 ppm is equivalent to 1mg/L
Now, concentration of the solution of sulfuric acid is 0.0980 g/L.
We rewrite, 0.0980 g = 0.0980*1000 mg = 98mg
Therefore, the concentration of the sulfuric acid solution is 98 mg/L = 98 ppm.

A student was comparing the solubility of equal amounts of table salt and table sugar at different temperatures.The table below
Mama L [17]
The sample that has the highest solubility is THE FIRST SAMPLE [TABLE SUGAR NO 1].
Solubility refers to the quantity of a solute that will dissolve in a given volume of solvent at a given temperature and pressure. The question above tells us that equal amounts of sugar and table salts were used. But looking at the table given in the question, you will see that sample 1 has the highest amount of solute that dissolve, that is 80,  the rest of the samples have values that are lower than that.
