It is recommended that drinking water contain 1.6 ppm fluo- ride (F) to prevent tooth decay. Consider a cylindrical reservoir with a diameter of 4.50 X 10' m and a depth of 10.0 m. (The volume is rh, where r is the radius and h is the height.) How many grams of F should be added to give 1.6 ppm? Fluoride is provided by hydrogen hexafluorosilicate, H. SiF. How many grams of H Sif contain this much F?

Respuesta :

Answer:

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.

Explanation:

Volume of cylindrical reservoir = V

Radius of the cylindrical reservoir = r = d/2

d = diameter of the cylindrical reservoir = d =[tex]4.50\times 10^1 m=45 m[/tex]

r = d/2 = 22.5 m

Depth of the reservoir = h =  10.0 m

[tex]V=\pi r^2 h[/tex]

[tex]=3.14\times (22.5 m)^2\times 10.0 m=15,896.25 m^3=15,896,250 L[/tex]

[tex]1 m^3=1000 l[/tex]

Volume of water cylindrical reservoir : V

Density of water,d = 1 kg/L

Mass of water cylindrical reservoir =  m

[tex]m=d\times V=1 kg/L\times 15,896,250 L=15,896,250 kg[/tex]

1.6 kilogram of fluorine per million kilograms of water. (Given)

Concentration of fluorine in water = 1.6 kg/ 1000,000 kg of water

In 1000,000 kg of water = 1.6 kg of fluorine

Then [tex]15,896,250 kg[/tex] of water have x mass of fluorine:

[tex]\frac{x}{15,896,250 kg\text{kg of water}}=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000 \text{kg of water}}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000}\times 15,896,250 kg=25.434 kg[/tex]

15,896,250 kg water of contains mass 25.434 kg of fluorine.

25.434 kg = 25434 g

25,434  grams of fluorine  should be added to give 1.6 ppm.

Percentage of fluorine in hydrogen hexafluorosilicate :

Molar mass hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = 144 g/mol

[tex]F\%=\frac{6\times 19 g/mol}{144 g/mol}\times 100=79.16\%[/tex]

Total mass of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = m'

[tex]79.16\%=\frac{25,434 g}{m'}\times 100[/tex]

m' = 32,127.02 g

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.
