Assume that your client has contaminated 10 [m^3] of an aquifer with 60 [L] of phenol. The aquifer

porosity is 0.25 and the groundwater velocity is .025 [m/d]. The phenol concentration in groundwater

samples has been reported, on average, to be 10 percent of its solubility.

1) Find the mass of dissolved and undissolved phenol.

2) Estimate the time for removal of phenol by groundwater.

(Assume that there is no abiotic or biotic degradation. (Assume a cross-section area of 10 m^2

for estimation of phenol flux through)

Estimate the partial pressure of phenol based on the given concentration.

3) Use the following table from New Hersey Department of Environmental Protection for Phenol chemical

properties:
