Question: Bisphenol A ( BPA ) ( chemical formula: C 1 5 H 1 6 O 2 ) , a contaminate in ground water, is diffusing

Bisphenol A (BPA)(chemical formula: C 15 H16 O2), a contaminate in ground water, is diffusing
into an inert porous mineral particle at 25\deg C. The porous particle has a void fraction of 0.25
with a mean pore diameter of 0.10\mu m, and the pores are filled with groundwater. The mass
concentration of BPA in the groundwater surrounding the particle is 0.05 g/L, which is below
its solubility limit.
What are the mole and mass fractions of BPA in the groundwater?
