Question

A water treatment tablet contains 20.0 mg of tetraglycine hydroperiodide, 40.0% of which is available as soluble iodine. If two tablets are used to treat 1.00 liter of drinking water, what is the concentration in ppm of iodine in the treated water? (density of water = 1.00 kg/L)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given values:

Mass of tetraglycine hydroperiodide in tablet = 20.0 mg

Mass percent of Iodine in tetraglycine hydroperiodide = 40.0 %

Volume of water = 1.00 L

Number of tablets used = 2

And density of water = 1.00 kg/L
