Answer:

  • <em>The maximum amount of copper allowed in 100 g of water is </em><u><em>0.00013 g</em></u>

Explanation:

To find the maximum amount of copper (in grams) allowed in 100 g of water use the maximum amount ratio (1.3 mg / kg)  and set a proportion with the unknown amount of copper (x) and the amount of water (100 g):

First, convert 100 g of water to kg: 100 g × 1 kg / 1000 g = 0.1 kg.

Now, set the proportion:

  • 1.3 mg Cu / 1 Kg H₂O = x / 0.1 kg H₂O

Solve for x:

  • x = 0.1 kg H₂O × 1.3 mg Cu / 1 kg H₂O = 0.13 mg Cu

Convert mg to grams:

  • 0.13 mg × 1 g / 1,000 mg = 0.00013 g

Answer: 0.00013 g of copper.

How do you do these?
Agata [3.3K]

Solve these problems like weighted averages:

The first one:

Multiply the masses (isotope numbers) by the decimal form of the percentage. Add them

0.076 (6) + 0.924 (7) = 6.924


The second one:

0.2 (10) + 0.8 (11) = 10.8


If you think about it, these answers make sense. 6.924 is much closer to 7 than to 6 (since there's a lot more lithium-7 than there is lithium-6). 10.8 is closer to 11 than to 10.
