Chapter 13, Problem 1CE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Among Lake Havasu and Lake Tahoe, the lake that has lower concentration of oxygen gas is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Dissolution of gas in water is dependent upon the pressure applied on it. Higher the pressure, higher is the dissolution of gas in water. As the height increases, pressure starts decreasing. Therefore, dissolution of gas in water starts decreasing.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1CE

The Lake which has lower concentration of oxygen gas is Lake Tahoe.

Explanation of Solution

Dissolution of gas is dependent upon the elevation. Higher the elevation, lower will be the solubility of a gas in water. Lake Havasu is present at 400feet while Lake Tahoe is present at 6200feet. So, Lake Tahoe is present at higher elevation than Lake Havasu. Therefore, Lake Tahoe has a lower concentration of oxygen gas.

Conclusion

The lake with lower concentration of oxygen gas is Lake Tahoe.
