hildren's toys and jewelry were assessed for their contamination by potentially toxic elements (PTE). This includes traces of As (74.92 g/mol), Cd (112.4 g/mol), Pb (207.2 g/mol), and Zn (65.39 g/mol) among others. The concentrations of these PTES were determined to characterize the subsequent health risks, and to possibly reinforce better legislation on the manufacturing of these products. A. If 365 ppb of Cd was observed, what is its equivalent in %(w/w)? B. A sample of plastic toy was treated resulting to a 1000 ml solution. What is the concentration of As in ppm if 65 µg of As is found in the sample? C. A 250 mL stock solution of 1.5 M Pb standard was prepared. What volume (in mL) of Pb stock solution must you use to prepare 50 mL of 0.15 M Pb solution? D. If the treatment used HNO3 (p = 1.51 g/mL) as the solvent during dissolution, and the density of Zn is 7.1 g/mL, what is the concentration of Zn in molality if the amount of Cd found in a 250 mL solution was 48 mg?

An analysis of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) content in a food chain for an ecological system is given below: Types of samples DDT concentration (mg kg) Water 0.00005 Plankton 0.04 Minnows 0.2 – 0.9 Predatory Fish 1.3 – 2.0 Predatory Bird 6.0 Duck 22.8 Interpret these results.
FALBERTA It is estimated that the total amount of oxygen (O2) contained in BIFS is equivalent to 6.6% of the oxygen present in the modern atmosphere. This is quite impressive given that the atmosphere during Archaean and early Proterozoic times was largely devoid of oxygen! Therefore, this reflects the photosynthetic efficiency of the early biosphere, coupled with its operation over long periods of time. Knowing that the mass of the modern atmosphere is 5.01×1018 kg, of which 21% is oxygen, what is the mass (in kilograms) of oxygen contained within BIFS? 6.9 x 1016 kg of O2 contained in BIF deposits Knowing that the molecular mass of O2 is 32 g/mole (0.032 kg/mole), how many moles of O2 are contained within BIFS? 2.17 x 1018 moles of O2 contained in BIF deposits Now, let us think about iron (Fe). The total mass of BIF's globally is estimated at 5.0x1017 kg, wherein iron accounts for approximately 35% by mass. The atomic mass of iron is 55.8 g/mole (0.0558 kg/mole). What is the total…

From the given situations, explain whether its solution requires a qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis, characterization analysis, and/or fundamental analysis. More than one type of analysis can be applied for some problems. 1. The structure of a mutated coronavirus strain found in the Philippines needs to be determined. 2. The residents of a prominent subdivision in Iloilo near a waste disposal site are concerned that it is leaking contaminants into their groundwater. 3. The Iloilo Museum of Contemporary Art (ILOMOCA) is concerned that the recently acquired oil painting is not authentic.

The 24 power plants in Baltimore metro area collectively emit about 40,300 metric tons of CO2 per day (www.carma.org), thereby increasing the level of greenhouse gases in this region. To counter this, environmentalists plan to plant trees in the area. How many moles of CO2 are emitted by these power plants every day? (1 ton =1000kg, molecular weight of CO2 is 44g) If on average 500 moles of glucose are synthesized by a tree each day, how many moles of CO2 can a single tree convert to glucose in a single day? How many trees need to be planted to reabsorb all the CO2 released into the atmosphere every day by these power plants? If a single tree occupies an average of 8.00 x 10-5 sq miles, what percent of the area of Baltimore city needs to be forested to counter the CO2 emitted from power plants alone? (total area of Baltimore city is 92.00 sq miles)
Carbon dioxide emissions associated with a one-night stay in a hotel room are calculated at 29.53 kg of CO2 per room day for an average hotel. The 200 rooms of your hotel are all occupied for two days during a college football game. How much CO2 did the guests and hotel release into the atmosphere?

Mercury emitted by industrial activities bioaccumulates in saltwater Tima as methylmer cury. The concentration of methylmercury in canned albacore tuna averages 30 x 10 g / 85 g of tuna. Determine the number of times per year when an individual (both male and female) can safely consume 110 g of canned albacore tuna. The reference dose is RD-1x10 mg/(kg-day).
