Imagine that 300 lbs. of dry sewage is dumped into a small lake, the volume of which is 300 million liters. How many poiunds of oxygen are needed to completely degrade this sewage? You may assume that the sewage has an elemental composition of C6H12O6. I am looking for the work, answer, and explanation. Thank you!
