Question

Silver ions can be found in some of the city 

water piped into homes. The average concentration of

 silver ions in city water is 0.028 ppm.

    Parts per million(ppm)= (mass solute/mass solution) x 10 6

     Parts per billion(ppb) = (mass solute/mass solution) x 10 9

     Molarity = mol solute/Liter solution

      Molality = mol solute/kg solvent

 

  • How many milligrams of silver ions would you ingest daily if you drank ten glasses (eight oz/glass) of city water daily?

 

          ( 1 oz =29.57 mL)

(b) How many liters of city water are required to recover

      1.85 g of silver chemically?
