The TOC parameter for water samples is measured by oxidizing the organic material to carbon dioxide and then measuring the amount of this gas evolved from the solution. If a 5.0 L sample of wastewater produced 0.25 mL of carbon dioxide gas at a pressure of 0.96 atm and a temperature of 22°C, calculate the TOC for the sample. Assuming the average composition of organic matter to be CH2O, calculate the Chemical Oxygen Demand.
