Question
250 mL of water sample was collected from a river and sent to a laboratory to determine the
concentration of the total suspended solid. In the laboratory, 5 mL of the water sample was
transferred to a 100 mL volumetric flask before diluted with distilled water to 100 mL. After that,
50 mL of the diluted water sample was transferred to a funnel containing a glass fiber filter and
attached to a glass flask with the sidearm connected to a operating vacuum pump. Transferred
diluted water sample was left drained through the glass filter before glass fiber was transferred to
an oven to heat at 105 oC under a constant weight of 0.2654 g was obtained. If the initial weight of
the glass fiber filter is 0.2431 g. Calculate the amount of the suspended solid in mg unit contained
in the 250 mL collected water sample.
