A bubble of air escaping from a diver's mask rises from a depth of 159 ft to the surface where the pressure is 1.00 atm. Initially, the bubble has a volume of 10.0 mL. Assuming none of the air dissolves in the water, how many times larger is the bubble just as it reaches the surface? Use this data: 1. The density of seawater is approximately 1.025 g mL1 2. The density of mercury is 13.6 g mL-1 times larger Use your answer to explain why scuba divers constantly exhale as they slowly rise from a deep dive. Since the pressure by a factor of approximately , the volume must by a factor of approximately Divers exhale to the amount of gas in their lungs, so it does not to a volume v than the diver's lungs.

Fluoridation of city water supplies has been practiced in the United States for several decades. It is done by continuously adding sodium fluoride to water as it comes from a reservoir. Assume you live in a medium-sized city of 150,000 people and that 660 L (170 gal) of water is used per person per day. What mass of sodium fluoride (in kilograms) must be added to the water supply each year (365 days) to have the required fluoride concentration of 1 ppm (part per million)that is, 1 kilogram of fluoride per 1 million kilograms of water? (Sodium fluoride is 45.0% fluoride, and water has a density of 1.00 g/cm3.)
