The city of Kearney's latest water quality report includes sulfate ion (SO42-) concentration.  Find that concentration value (use the "Highest Value") on page 2 of the report found here: https://ne-kearney3.civicplus.com/DocumentCenter/View/31728 (Links to an external site.) If you had a 1.00-L Kearney tap water sample, what is the maximum mass of Ba(NO3)2(s), in milligrams, that you could add to it without BaSO4(s) precipitating?  Type in your answer as a number to two decimal places with no units. (HINTS:  Ignore any other possible chemical reactions.  Assume that adding the Ba(NO3)2 does not change the volume of the tap water sample.  The sulfate concentration unit in the city report includes mass - this refers to mass of sulfate ions only.)
