- What is Donnan's theory? What is its importance in biophysical chemistry?arrow_forwardDetermining Diet. One method for determining the amount of corn in early Native American diets is the stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) technique. As corn photosynthesizes, it concentrates the isotope carbon-13, whereas most other plants concentrate carbon-12. Overreliance on corn consumption can then be correlated with certain diseases, because corn lacks the essential amino acid lysine. Archaeologists use a mass spectrometer to separate the 12C and 13C isotopes in samples of human remains. Suppose you use a velocity selector to obtain singly ionized (missing one electron) atoms of speed 8.50 km /s, and you want to bend them within a uniform magnetic field in a semicircle of diameter 25.0 cm for the 12C. The measured masses of these isotopes are 1.99 * 10-26 kg (12C) and 2.16 * 10-26 kg (13C). (a) What strength of magnetic field is required? (b) What is the diameter of the 13C semicircle?

- There are 2 boxes for each reactant and product. Type the coefficient in the first box and the chemical formula in the second. Enter the chemical formulas in the order they appear in the problem. Each box must have a coefficient or formula. Type in a "1" if you did not change the coefficient. Type the formula in this format: CO_2. Omit the subscript "1" in the chemical formulas. This is case-sensitive. Carbon monoxide reacts with iron(III) oxide to produce iron and carbon dioxide.arrow_forwardMarie Curie was born in Poland but studied and carried out her research in Paris. In 1903, she shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with H. Becquerel and her husband Pierre for their discovery of radioactivity. (In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of two new chemical elements, radium and polonium, the latter named for her homeland, Poland.) They and others observed that a radioactive substance could emit three types of radiation: alpha (), beta (), and gamma (). If the radiation from a radioactive source is passed between electrically charged plates, some particles are attached to the positive plate, some to the negative plate, and others feel no attraction. Which particles are positively charged, which are negatively charged, and which have no charge? Of the two charged particles, which has the most mass? Radioactivity. Alpha (), beta I(), and gamma () rays from a radioactive element are separated by passing them between electrically charged plates.arrow_forwardstudent found a bottle of unknown origin in the basement of an "CAUTION—contains С₁H₁O.” No other A old house. The bottle was labelled information was given, but inside the bottle were some white crystals. The student took the bottle to a chemistry laboratory, where she analyzed the crystals with the help of the laboratory staff. C₁2H₁6O reacted with Br₂ in CCl4 adding one mole of Br, and forming C₁₂H₁OB2₂. When a sample of C₁₂H₂O was reacted with O3 followed by Zn/H₂O, two different samples, J and K, were obtained. Compound J had a molecular formula of C.HgO₂, and its NMR is shown below. Compound K had a molecular formula of C₂H₂O, and it could be oxidized to compound L, with a molecular formula of C₂H₂O₂. The IR spectrum of L showed a very wide, strong band centred around 3000 cm*¹. The NMR spectrum of L showed only two different absorptions: a doublet (6H) at 0.9 ppm and a septet (1H) at 3.6 ppm. There was also a singlet (1H) off the scale at 11.8 ppm. students, deduce possible…arrow_forward
- You are a forensic scientist. You are investigating a murder involving poison. The victim was poisoned with a compound called di-chlorobenzene, whose formula is C6H4Cl2. Autopsy results show that the victim’s body contained about 27.5 g of the poison, but the actual amount could have been slightly higher due to tissue absorption. The main suspect is his wife, Suzanne, who works as a chemistry professor. Records show that she purchased 15 g of benzene (C6H6) two days before the murder. Benzene is one of the compounds use to make the poison. She claims she was using it to make methyl benzene (C6H5CH3), an innocuous compound, for use in her lab. She shows you the bottle of methyl benzene she claims to have made. It contains 25 g of methyl benzene. To produce di-chlorobenzene, the reaction is: Cl2(g) + C6H6(l) ⟶⟶ C6H4Cl2(l) + H2(g) To produce methyl benzene, the reaction is: CH4(g) + C6H6(l) ⟶⟶ C6H5CH3(l) + H2(g) Use stoichiometry to solve this case.

What are the limitations that Forensic investigators face.arrow_forwardMethods of Analysis Test #1: Polarity, or Effect of a charged rod on a stream of liquid: This test was used to determine the relative polarity of the unknown liquid. The liquid was allowed to run out of a buret and a charged rod was brought up next to the stream. The observations were reported as to whether or not the stream of liquid responded to the charged rod and to what degree. Try this at home with water and a plastic spoon. Rub the plastic spoon against a sweater and move it close to a small stream of water running out of your faucet! Test #2: Volatility, or Rate of Evaporation: A thermometer probe was wrapped with a strip of filter paper. This assembly was soaked in one of the liquids for one minute. The probe was removed, and the temperature change was monitored as the liquid evaporated. The results are given in Graph 1 below.
