Unit ppm stands for parts per million. in terms of mass, ppm is equivalent to mg/kg.
since 1 kg is 10⁻⁶ mg, 1 kg is equivalent to million mg.
therefore mg/kg is also ppm.
there are 1.3 g of Ca ions in 3100 kg
if 3100 kg contains - 1.3 g of Ca
then 1 kg contains - 1.3 g / 3100 kg
then Ca ions - 0.42 x 10⁻³ g/kg
Ca ion concentration - 0.42 mg/kg 
therefore Ca ion concentration is 0.42 ppm

The human body excretes nitrogen in the form of urea, NH₂CONH₂. The key step in its biochemical formation is the reaction of wat
Misha Larkins [42]

Mass perventage of nitrogen in urea, arginine, ornithine is   46.67%, 32.2%,21% respectively.

What is Mass perventage ?

Mass percentage is one way of representing the concentration of an element in a compound or a component in a mixture. Mass percentage is calculated as the mass of a component divided by the total mass of the mixture, multiplied by 100.

Molecular mass of urea (NH2CONH2) is= 2× (Atomic mass of N ) + 4 × (Atomic mass of H) + (Atomic mass of C) (Atomic mass of O) = 60

Mass percentage of N = Total mass of N atoms in the compoundMass of compound×100=2860×100=46.67%

chemical formula for arginine is C6H14N4O2

molar mass of C6H14N4O2=174g/mol

moles of N atoms in C6H14N4O2=4

mass of N atoms=14*4=56g

mass percent of N in C6H14N4O2=(56/174)*100=32.2%

the chemical formula for ornithine is C5H12N2O2

molar mass of C5H12N2O2=132g/mol

moles of N atoms in C5H12N2O2=2

mass of N atoms in C5H12N2O2=2*14=28

mass percent of N in C5H12N2O2=(28/132)*100=21%

Consider the chemical equation. CuCl2 + 2NaNO3 mc023-1.jpg Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl What is the percent yield of NaCl if 31.0 g of CuCl2
lana [24]
CuCl2 + 2NaNO3 ---->  Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl

using molar masses:-
Theoretical yields:-
63.54 + 2(35.45) g  of CuCl2  produces  2(22.98 + 35.45) g of NaCl
    134.44  g .................................................... 116.86 g
       31.0 g ....................................................31.0 * 116.86 /134.44=26.95g  
 
 So percentage yield is 21.2* 100 / 26.95    =  78.7%  to nearest tenth

Determine the pH of a 0.048 M hypochlorous acid (HClO) solution. Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid (Ka = 4.0 ✕ 10−8 M).
storchak [24]

pH of 0.048 M HClO is 4.35.

<u>Explanation:</u>

HClO is a weak acid and it is dissociated as,

HClO ⇄ H⁺ + ClO⁻

We can write the equilibrium expression as,

Ka = $\frac{[H^{+}] [ClO^{-}]  }{[HClO]}

Ka = 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M

4.0 × 10⁻⁸ M = $\frac{x \times x }{0.048}

Now we can find x by rewriting the equation as,

x² =  4.0 × 10⁻⁸ × 0.048

   = 1.92 × 10⁻⁹

Taking sqrt on both sides, we will get,

x = [H⁺] = 4.38 × 10⁻⁵

pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]

     = - log₁₀[ 4.38 × 10⁻⁵]

   = 4.35
