The minimum mass concentration of oxygen required for fish life is 4mgL-1.
a.) assume the density of lake water to be 1.00gml-1, and express this concentration in parts per million (which is equivalent to milligrams of O2 per kilogram of water, m.kg-1
b.) what is the minimum partial pressure of O2 that would supply the minimum mass concentration of oxygen in water to support fish life at 20 degrees C
c.) What is the minimum atmospheric pressure that would give this partial pressure, assuming that oxygen exerts about 21% of the atmospheric pressure?
(I would prefer a typed response if possible, thanks)
