<u>Answer:</u> The mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg

<u>Explanation:</u>

ppm is the amount of solute (in milligrams) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppm}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^6$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Concentration of arsenic = 5 ppm

Mass of sample = 50 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$5=\frac{\text{Mass of arsenic}}{50g}\times 10^6\\\\\text{Mass of arsenic}=\frac{5\times 50}{10^6}=0.00025g=0.25mg$

<u>Conversion factor used:</u> 1 g = 1000 mg

Hence, the mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg

Reduction half equation:

5[VO2]^+(aq) + 10H^+(aq) + 5e --------> 5[VO]^2+(aq) + 5H2O(l)

Overall redox reaction equation:

Mn^2+(aq) + 4H2O(l) + 5[VO2]^+(aq) + 10H^+(aq) ---------->MnO4^-(aq) + 8H^+(aq) + 5[VO]^2+(aq) + 5H2O(l)

A 19.0 L helium tank is pressurized to 26.0 atm. When connected to this tank, a balloon will inflate because the pressure inside

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.

The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.

Explanation:

Assuming Helium behaves like an ideal gas and temperature is constant.

According to Boyle's law for ideal gases, at constant temperature,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = 26 atm

V₁ = 19.0 L

P₂ = 1 atm (the balloon is said to expand till the pressure matches the pressure of the atmpsphere; and the pressure of the atmosphere is 1 atm)

V₂ = ?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

(26 × 19) = 1 × V₂

V₂ = 494 L (it is assumed the balloon never bursts)

The new volume of the balloon when the pressure equalised with the pressure of the atmosphere = 494 L.

The balloon expands by am additional 475 L.

Hope this Helps!!!
