In 1993 the minnesota department of health set a health risk limit for cadmium in groundwater of 4.00 μg. suppose an analytical chemist receives a sample of groundwater with a measured volume of 76.0 ml. calculate the maximum mass n micrograms cadmium which the chemist could measure in this sample and still certify that the groundwater from which it standards came met minnesota department of health be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Maximum allowable mass of cadmium in a 76.0mL sample is 0.304μg (0.304mcg)

Explanation:

In the complete question, the limit for cadmium is defined as 4.00μg/L.

μg can also be denoted as mcg

The concentration of cadmium is the amount of mass of cadmium per unit volume of water. The limit for the mass of cadmium in the measured sample can be found by multiplying the volume of water by the allowed concentration.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
