Answer:
A. 7.2%
B. 8.6 ppm
Explanation:
Part A
First let's calculate the mass of I₂, using the known value of moles and the molecular weight (253.8 g/mol)
Mass percentage is calculated using the mass of I₂ and the total mass (mass of I₂ + mass of CCl₄)
Part B
The concentration of Sr⁺² in ppm is calculated using the formula
We're given the mass of Sr⁺² in grams, so now we convert it into mg:
Now to convert kg of water into L, we use the density of seawater (1050 kg/m³):
Converting density: 1050 [tex]\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{1m^{3}}{1000L}[/tex] = 1.05 kg/L
Finally we calculate the concentration of Sr⁺²:
