The concentration of carbon monoxide (CO), a common air pollutant, is found in a room to be 5.7 x 10-3 mg/cm3. How many grams of CO are present in the room if the room's dimensions measure 3.5m x 3.0m x 3.2m?
A chemist prepares a solution of silver(I) nitrate AgNO3 by measuring out 6.4102 x 10^2 μmol of silver(I) nitrate into a 450.mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mol/L of the chemist's silver(I) nitrate solution. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Recently the CDC changed the ‘level of concern’ in children with exposure to lead to 5 micrograms per deciliter of lead in blood. A clinician collected a 5.0 mL blood sample from a child playing on a playground painted in Pb-based paint and determined that the level of Pb in that sample was 2.5 x 10-6 g. What is the child's blood lead level in micrograms per deciliter?

- Which of the following given statements is false? 1. The electrical conductivity of water is dependent on the temperature of the water sample. Removal of suspended particles by sedimentation depends upon the size and specific gravity of those particles. Suspended solids retained on a filter may remain in suspension if their specific gravity is similar to water while very dense particles passing through the filter may settle. Sodium hydroxide and sodium chloride are both bases. 2. In a sedimentation process, the solid particles settled at the bottom of the container because they are heavier than water and are acted upon by gravity. In the process of distillation, the condenser helps in the conversion of the vapor that goes inside it into liquid. After filtering a mixture using a filter paper, there is more solute at the bottom of the container compared to the contents of the filter paper. In the reaction between dry ferrous sulfate and dry potassium ferricyanide, no change is observed.…arrow_forwardThe temperature of your water was 22.4 degrees Celsius.
