Answer:

mass of chlorine = 10.4 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of the solution = 5.20 × 10⁶ g

ppm chlorine by mass = 2.00

Recall that:

$ppm = (mass \ of \ chorine \ gas (solute))/( mass of the solution )* 10^6$

$2 = (mass \ of \ chorine \ gas (solute))/( 5.20* 10^6)* 10^6$

mass of chlorine = 5.20 × 2.0

mass of chlorine = 10.4 grams
