### Question 14 Chromium, like most heavy metals, has damaging effects on wildlife. What mass (in grams) of chromium would be present in a 6.0 kg raccoon with chromium at levels of 75 ppm? **Options:** - a) 80 g - b) 2.2 g - c) 0.45 g - d) 0.013 g *Note:* ppm stands for parts per million, which is commonly used to denote minuscule concentrations of substances within a given material or environment. In this context, 75 ppm means 75 grams of chromium per one million grams of the raccoon's body weight.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data

chromium concentration = 75 ppm

total mass = 6.0 kg

we know that ppm is defined as part per million.

ppm=gram of solutetotal mass in gram×106
