Question

A team of investigators is out on a boat on a lake on a marvelous,
sunny summer day, and they are taking water samples from
various depths in the lake so as to construct a plot of dissolved
O2 concentration versus depth, similar to the plot in Figure 1.16.
When the investigators bring up a water sample from a depth
of 20 m, why is it imperative that they measure its dissolved O2
concentration immediately, rather than letting it sit on the deck
for 5 minutes? (Hint: Look at Figure 22.2A.

(A) A sealed sample bottle of
cold creek water after sitting
in a warm room
Bubbles form when water
warms because a rise in
temperature drives dissolved
gases out of solution.
