The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "B 1.5 X 1-^-5 ppm." A 250-mL aqueous solution contains 1.56 mc025-1.jpg 10–5 g of methanol and has a density of 1.03 g/mL. The concentration in ppm is that 1.5 X 1-^-5 ppm

Answer: The correct option is C.

Explanation: ppm is used to measure the concentration of solute in a given volume of solution. ppm is basically parts per million.

Mathematically,

[tex]ppm=\frac{\text{Mass of solute (in mg)}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}[/tex]

We are given:

Mass of methanol = [tex]1.56\times 10^{-5}g=1.56\times 10^{-2}mg[/tex]  (Conversion Factor : 1g = 1000mg)

Volume of solution = 250 mL = 0.250L   (Conversion Factor : 1L = 1000mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]ppm=\frac{1.56\times 10^{-2}mg}{0.250L}[/tex]

Concentration of methanol = 0.062ppm

Hence, the correct option is C.
