Suppose that 1200 kg of n-propanol (CH3CH2CH2OH) were accidentally discharged into a pond with a volume of 6.3 x 108 L. By how much is the BOD of the pond increased (in mg/L)? You will first want to determine how many moles of O2 would be consumed for the microbial respiration of the 1200 kg of propanol.
