- Fluoridation of city water supplies has been practiced in the United States for several decades. It is done by continuously adding sodium fluoride to water as it comes from a reservoir. Assume you live in a medium-sized city of 150,000 people and that 660 L (170 gal) of water is used per person per day. What mass of sodium fluoride (in kilograms) must be added to the water supply each year (365 days) to have the required fluoride concentration of 1 ppm (part per million)that is, 1 kilogram of fluoride per 1 million kilograms of water?

- No Plagiarism Please! Use the paragraph to complete Divers who go to great depths in the ocean experience large differences in pressure between the surface and their final destinations below the surface. At times, they have to avoid quick changes in pressure because of the effects on the solubility of nitrogen in their blood. If the solubility decreases quickly, then gas bubbles can form in the person’s blood, causing a dangerous condition called “the bends.” In one or two sentences, state whether you would expect the condition to be a greater hazard for divers as they dive down or as they return to the surface. Then, explain your prediction in terms of the solubility of gases in liquids at different pressures.arrow_forwardExplain why pure water has the maximum water potential.arrow_forwardSeawater contains an average of 1.08 x 103 ppm of Na* and 270 ppm of SO42.

- Seawater consists of many important elements in the form of salts dissolved in the water. At 25°C the mass percentage of salts in seawater will total 3.5% m/m. The density of seawater at this temperature and salt percentage is 1.024 kg/L. Study the chart and answer the questions below: 1. The chart assumes 1000.0 g of seawater. What volume, Vsoln (L), does this correspond to at 25 °C? 2. The diagram claims that chloride ions make up 55% m/m of all salt ions. Confirm this number. if possible, I would like handwritten answers with calculations. Thanks :)arrow_forwardLead levels in drinking water should be no higher than 15 ppb. What is this in mol/L?
