Bioconcentration Factor Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Bioconcentration Factor?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

BCF = \frac{C metalinplanttissue}{C metal}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

BCF = \frac{15g/Eq}{2.5g/L}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

BCF = \frac{0.015kg/Eq}{2.5kg/m³}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

BCF = \frac{0.015}{2.5}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

BCF = 0.006m³/kg

LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit

∴

BCF = 6L/kg
