In 2014 (the last year for which I can find data), Utah County had a carbon monoxide (CO) average concentration of 1.90 ppm. (1 ppm stands for 1 part per million which means in one million volumes of air—choose whatever volume unit you like—there would be one volume of carbon monoxide.) An average human takes inhales 0.50 L per breath and takes 20 breaths per minute. Carbon monoxide in the atmosphere has a density of 1.2 grams per liter. 3. How many milligrams of carbon monoxide would a person in Utah County inhale in an 8 hours?
