The concentration of C29H60 in summer rainwater is 34 ppb. Find the molarity of this compound in nanomoles per liter (nM).
1 answer:
Answer: The concentration of C29H60 in nM per liter is 83,33 nM/liter
Explanation: Let's start from the ppb definition: ppb means parts per billion. In terms of concentracion measuring this means micrograms of solute per liter of solution.
The algebraic expression would be:
<em>ppb [=] micrograms of compound/liter of solution</em>
We can assume that the solvent is water. The solute is dissolved in water and both create the C29H60 solution.
For the exercise we have 34 ppb of C29H60, that means 34 micrograms of C29H60 in one liter of solution. So, since now, we have to convert the units from the initial data to the required answer.
The respective procedure is in a attached file.
