Of all the hydrogen in the ocean, 0.0156 % of the mass is deuterium. How many deuterium nuclei could be obtained from 7.50 gal of ordinary tap water?
Can anyone give me a clue about how to go about this....the first part of the quesiton means that .0156 percent of all the hydrogen in the ocean is deuterium when measuring by mass....i think you have to account for molar masses of oxygen and 2 H but seems kinda paradoxyl but my thinking cap isnt on so need a little help and maybe an equation..thanks
