Water contaminated with `H_(2)S` can be freed from `H_(2)S` by passing `Cl_(2)` through it. If the `H_(2)S` content in contaminated water is `22` ppm by mass how much `Cl_(2)` is needed to remove all the `H_(2)S` from `2xx10^(2)` gallons of water. `(1 gallon =3.785 litre)`

Answer» `because 10^(6)g` or `mL H_(2)O` contain `22g H_(2)S`
`:. 2xx 10^(2) xx 3.785 xx 10^(3) xx 10^(3) mL`
`= (22 xx 2 xx 10^(2) xx 3.785 xx 10^(3))/(10^(6))`
`= 22 xx 2 xx 3.785 xx 10^(-1)`
`= 16.654gH_(2)S`
`Cl_(2)(g)+H_(2)S(aq).rarr2HCl_(aq)+S(s)`
Eq. of `Cl_(2) =` Eq. of `H_(2)S`
`(w)/(35.5) = (16.654)/(34//2)`
`w = 34.78 g Cl`
