In 2001, EPA adopted a lower standard for arsenic in drinking water that applies to both community water systems and non-transient non-community water systems. The new arsenic standard is 10.0 ppb. Please estimate the highest molarity of arsenic (in μM) in drinking water that can meet the standard of EPA? The density of pure water is 1.000 g/mL. ___________ μM?

Question

 In 2001, EPA adopted a lower standard for arsenic in drinking water that applies to both community water systems and non-transient non-community water systems. The new arsenic standard is 10.0 ppb.

Please estimate the highest molarity of arsenic (in μM) in drinking water that can meet the standard of EPA? The density of pure water is 1.000 g/mL. ___________ μM?

Expert Solution
Step 1

According to the question,

The arsenic standard is given by = 10.0 ppbThe density of the pure water is given by = 1.000 g/mL
