The fda recommends that women who are pregnant avoid eating more than three 6.00 oz servings of bluefish per month because of the relatively high mercury levels in that type of fish. if bluefish contains 0.321 ppm of mercury (that is, 0.321 oz of mercury per 1×106 oz of fish), how many ounces of mercury would a pregnant woman consume in a month if she ate the maximum recommended amount of bluefish?

If a pregnant woman eats 6.00 oz servings of bluefish in a month, she would be consuming 1.926 x 10⁻⁶ oz of mercury.

Explanation:

0.321 oz mercury  1 x 10⁶ oz fish

            x                6.00 oz fish

                   x = 1.926 x 10⁻⁶ oz mercury

- aluminum and copper chloride.

- the chloride ion to separate the aluminum from the oxygen so that the aluminum can react with the copper ions (and the water molecules).
