Question

Lead is a possible contaminant in public water systems. There are many reasons we should be concerned about this, but this may be especially concerning if the water is used for drinking. Removing all lead is not feasible, so many local governments must set an “acceptable” concentration for contaminants. The “acceptable” concentration of lead in public water for some states is 7.2 x 10^-7 M.

If 10.00 mL of 1.00 M lead is poured down the sink, how many liters of water are required to make sure the concentration of lead is 7.1 x 10^-7 M, which is just below the acceptable level?
