Explain the fertilizer washes into a river that runs through

Reference no: EM13553642

A farmer applies 1700.0 kg of a fertilizer that contains 10.0% of nitrogen to his fields each year. Fifteen (15.0%) percent of the fertilizer washes into a river that runs through the farm. If the river flows at an average rate of 0.210 cubic feet per second, what is the additional concentration of nitrogen (expressed in milligrams of nitrogen per liter) in the river water due to the farmer's fertilizer?
