Answer:
0.5ppm
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question.
Volume of water = 2500L
Mas of Cu = 1.25 g
Step 2:
Determination of the concentration of Cu in g/L. This is illustrated below:
Volume of water = 2500L
Mas of Cu = 1.25 g
Conc. of Cu In g/L =?
Conc. g/L = Mass /volume
Conc. of Cu in g/L = 1.25/2500
Conc. of Cu in g/L = 5x10^–4 g/L
Step 3:
Conversion of the concentration of Cu in g/L to ppm. This is illustrated below
Recall:
1g/L = 1000mg/L
Therefore, 5x10^–4 g/L = 5x10^–4 x 1000 = 0.5mg/L
Now, we know that 1mg/L is equal to 1ppm.
Therefore, 0.5mg/L is equivalent to 0.5ppm
Answer:
Explanation:
There are key organs and system that assist in ensuring the body maintains homeostasis in the case of water-salt balance.
The excretory system: When one sweats, a lot of water content of the blood can drop (this is what causes the individual to be thirsty). In order to maintain a certain water-salt balance, the excretory system passes some salt out of the body in the form of urine (this is the reason the urine is usually yellowish but small in volume during the summer).
Endocrine system: When water content of the blood drops, vasopressin (also called antidiuretic hormone) is released into the bloodstream stimulating the kidneys to conserve water and release less urine (as said earlier). However, if the body is hydrated, less vasopressin is released and more water is passed in the urine.
Answer:
Chlorine Ion
Explanation:
The chlorine ion is adding 1 valence electron in order to complete its outer most shell. It has a charge of 1- meaning it is adding an electron.
