Answer:

Mass of Oxygen is equal to 0.005566 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know,

ppm=(grams of solute/grams of solution)*1,000,000

Substituting the given values, we get -

23 ppm = (grams of solute/242.0066 grams)*1,000,000

1 ml = 1 gram

On solving the above equation, we get -

grams of solute = (23 * 242.0066)/1,000,000

= 0.005566 grams

Mass of Oxygen is equal to 0.005566 grams
