Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among Lake Havasu and Lake Tahoe, the lake that has lower concentration of oxygen gas is to be stated.

Answer to Problem 1CE

The Lake which has lower concentration of oxygen gas is Lake Tahoe.

Explanation of Solution

Dissolution of gas is dependent upon the elevation. Higher the elevation, lower will be the solubility of a gas in water. Lake Havasu is present at 400 feet while Lake Tahoe is present at 6200 feet. So, Lake Tahoe is present at higher elevation than Lake Havasu. Therefore, Lake Tahoe has a lower concentration of oxygen gas.

Conclusion

The lake with lower concentration of oxygen gas is Lake Tahoe.
