Chlorine is used to disinfect swimming pools. The accepted concentration for this purpose is 1 ppm chlorine, or 1 g of chlorine

per million grams of water. Calculate the volume of a chlorine solution (in milliliters) a homeowner should add to her swimming pool if the solution contains 6.0 percent chlorine by mass and there are 2.0 x 10^4 gallons (gal) of water in the pool (1 gal =3.79 L; density of liquids= 1.0 g/mL).

Answer:

Volume of chlorine solution required is around 1.2 L

Explanation:

Volume of water in the pool = 2.0*10^4 gal

1 gal = 3.79 L

Therefore, volume of water in the pool in units of Liters would be:

\frac{2.0*10^{4}\ gal*3.79 \ L }{1\ gal} =7.6*10^{4} L

Density of water = 1 g/ml = 1000 g/L

Mass\ of\ water\ in\ the\ pool = Density *volume\\\\=1000g/L*7.4*10^{4} L = 7.4*10^{7} g

The accepted concentration of chlorine = 1 g/ 10⁶ g water

Therefore amount of chlorine required to disinfect the pool water would be:

=\frac{1\ g\ chlorine*7.4*10^{7}\ g water }{10^{6}\ g\ water } =74\ g

The given solution is 6.0% w/w chlorine i.e.

6.0 g chlorine in 100 g solution

Therefore, amount of solution corresponding to 74 g chlorine would be:

=\frac{74\ g\ chlorine*100\ g\ solution}{6.0\ g\ chlorine} =1233 g

Density of the solution = 1 g/ml

Volume\ of\ chlorine\ solution\ required = \frac{Mass}{Density}\\\\= \frac{1233g}{1.0 g/ml} = 1.2*10^{3} ml = 1.2\ L

Which of the following measurements is equal to 150 dL?
MrRissso [65]
This is a case of metric system of measurements. The scale of the metric system only differs by a factor of 10. The scale (from greatest to least) is kiloliter, hectoliter, dekaliter, liter, deciliter, centiliter and milliliter. If the unit is 150 dL, and you want to find the equivalent dkL measurement, just move the decimal point 2 decimals places to the left (just follow the scale). The same procedure is done for the other metric units.

150 dL = 1.5 dkL
150 dL = 15 L
150 dL = 1,500 cL
150 dL = 15,000 mL

From the choices, the answer is letter C.
