The concentration of carbon monoxide in an urban apartment is 48μg/m3. What mass of carbon monoxide in grams is present in a room measuring 10.6ft×14.8ft×20.5ft?

Respuesta :

Answer;

= 5.45 × 10-3 g or 5.45 mg

Explanation;

1 meter = 3.048 feet

Volume = 10.6 × 14.8 × 20.5 ft³  × (1/3.048 ft/m³)

             = 113.57 m³

Therefore; the mass of carbon monoxide;

                = 113.57 m³ × 48 × 10^-6 g/m³

                = 5.45 × 10^-3 g

                = 5.45 mg


Answer:

m = [tex]4.37 * 10^{-3}[/tex] g

Explanation:

Volume = 10.6 × 14.8 × 20.5 ft = 3216.04 ft³

1 feet³ = 0.0283168 meter ³

Now convert feet³ to meter³

Volume =   3216.04 ft³ × (3.048/1 m³/ft³)  = 91.06811131 m³

This question gives the density as 48μg/m3

μ = [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]

The formula for density is [tex]p = \frac{m}{V}[/tex]

[tex]48*10^{-6} = \frac{m}{91.06811131}[/tex]

Solve for m

m = [tex]4.37 * 10^{-3}[/tex] g
