1. Chloroform (CHCl3) has a Drinking Water standard concentration of 0.10 mg/L . a. What is this concentration expressed as parts per million (ppm)? b. Typical consumption Risk Analysis assumes the average human drinks 2.2 L/day for 70 years. How many grams of CHCl3 would the average human consume during a lifetime at the Drinking Water standard concentration? 2. The Air Quality Standard for sulfur dioxide (SO2) is 0.04 ppm. Express this as mg/m3 at 1 atm and 25oC.

when a cities drinking water is disinfected by chlorine , an undesired by -product chloroform (CHCL3) can be formed. Assume a 73kg person drinks 2.7L/day of water over her/his lifetime. (70years) with a chloroform concentration of 2.98mg/l with a potency factor of 0.007(kg.day/mg). Determine the increased cancer risk for this person. Please give the answer to four decimal places.
How would you express the concentration level of drinking water 0.002 mg/L in ppm and ppb?

A 70-kg individual drinks 2 L/day of water containing 0.015 mg/L of tetrachloroethylene for 20 years. (a) Find the hazard quotient for this exposure. (b) Find the cancer risk. (c) If the individual drinks this water for 30 years instead of just 20, recomputed the hazard quotient and the cancer risk. A man works in an Aluminum smelter for 10 years. The drinking water in the smelter contains 0.015 mg/L arsenic and 0.80 mg/L methylene chloride. His only exposure to...
