A company is testing drinking water and wants to ensure that ca content is below 155 ppm. What is the maximum amount of Ca that would be allowed in a 890 g of water.

138 mg

Explanation:

A company is testing drinking water and wants to ensure that Ca content is below 155 ppm (= 155 mg/kg), that is, 155 milligrams of calcium per kilogram of drinking water. We need to find the maximum amount of calcium in 890 g of drinking water.

Step 1: Convert the mass of drinking water to kilograms.

We will use the relation 1 kg = 1000 g.

Step 2: Calculate the maximum amount of calcium in 0.890 kg of drinking water

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
