Worked answers, Chapter

Work through Chapters 4-8. These chapters are the meat of the book and will give you techniques and strategies for answering SAT math questions successfully. They will also review the math skills and concepts you need to know for the SAT. 

Throughout the book there are worked examples to illustrate the use of the theory and at the end of each chapter there are problems to be solved by the reader. These are seen as an important part of the book because in solving the problems the reader is encouraged to develop the subject material beyond the level covered in the text. Answers are given for all the questions. 

The carrying out of visualization techniques or measurements is one approach to obtain answers to these questions. Computer simulation is another method that is now becoming a more exact science. A third, essential approach is to depend on experience and good engineering judgment. All the above methods may eventually lead to success however, the effort and cost of the work may differ considerably. This chapter describes the measurement and visualization techniques that can be applied in industrial ventilation problems. 

This manual includes lecture outlines, lists of demonstrations for each chapter, and worked-out solutions for all of end-of-chapter Questions and Problems that do not have answers in Appendix 6 of the text (and the Student Solutions Manual). Electronic files of the Instructor s Manual are available on the PowerLecture CD-ROM and on the instructors companion site at academic.cengage.com/chemistry/masterton. 

In a typical chapter, you will find ten or more Examples, each designed to illustrate a particular principle. These have answers, screened in colon Most of them contain a Strategy statement, which describes the reasoning behind the Solution. You should find it helpful to get into the habit of working all problems this way. First, spend a few moments deciding how the problem should be solved. Then, and only then, set up the mathematics to solve it... 

Each chapter is summarized by a multi-step Summary Problem that covers all or nearly all of the key concepts in the chapter. You can test your understanding of the chapter by working this problem. A major advantage of the Summary Problems is that they tie together many different ideas, showing how they correlate with one another An experienced general chemistry professor who uses the book always tells his class, If you can answer the Summary Problem without help, you are ready for a test on its chapter. ... 

Blue-numbered questions answered in Appendix 6 have fully worked solutions available in the Student Solution Manual. The Student Solution Manual is described in more detail in the Preface. To further aid your study, selected worked solutions for problems from each chapter, identified by the web icon, are posted on the book s companion website at academic.cengage.com/chemistry/masterton. 

You have had opportunities to ask many Why questions already from your work in the laboratory. In fact, there are enough such questions to provide the basis for the rest of the course. Some of the questions that have been raised in your experiments are listed at the end of the chapter. Can you add to this list How many of the questions can you answer now We will find the answers to many of them in our subsequent study. Some may not yet have satisfactory answers. These are the most interesting questions because they point into the future— your future. 

Students often ask, What is enthalpy The answer is simple. Enthalpy is a mathematical function defined in terms of fundamental thermodynamic properties as H = U+pV. This combination occurs frequently in thermodynamic equations and it is convenient to write it as a single symbol. We will show later that it does have the useful property that in a constant pressure process in which only pressure-volume work is involved, the change in enthalpy AH is equal to the heat q that flows in or out of a system during a thermodynamic process. This equality is convenient since it provides a way to calculate q. Heat flow is not a state function and is often not easy to calculate. In the next chapter, we will make calculations that demonstrate this path dependence. On the other hand, since H is a function of extensive state variables it must also be an extensive state variable, and dH = 0. As a result, AH is the same regardless of the path or series of steps followed in getting from the initial to final state and... 

Why do negative potentials (UWr=-1 V) fail to further enhance to any significant extent catalyst performance of the promoted catalyst whereas the unpromoted Rh catalyst is electrochemically promoted with both positive and negative potentials (Fig. 2.3). The answer will become apparent in subsequent chapters In a broad sense negative potential application is equivalent to alkali supply on the catalyst surface. They both lead to a substantial decrease (up to 2-3 eV) in the catalyst work function, O, aquantity which as we will see, plays an important role in the description of promotion... 

Inevitably, this book - especially this chapter - leaves several major questions to be answered by further work ... 

The evidence I have reviewed in this chapter indicates that placebos work for a wide variety of conditions. They can produce both positive and negative effects. They affect the body as well as the mind. They can be as strong as potent medications, and their effects can be lasting. We have also seen that placebos can produce negative effects. Furthermore, the nocebo effect maybe an important factor in clinical depression - at least for some depressed people. For this reason, understanding the placebo effect is essential to understanding how to treat depression effectively. How do inert substances produce both therapeutic and detrimental effects Chapter 6 provides an answer to this question. 

But how can we tell then if the answer is correct Well, there is a way, and one that is not too overwhelming. From the definition of the inverse of a matrix, you should obtain a unit matrix if you multiply the inverse of a given matrix by the matrix itself. In our previous chapter [1] we showed this for the 2 x 2 case. For the simultaneous equations at hand, however, the process is only a little more extensive. From the original matrix of coefficients in the simultaneous equations that we are working with, the one called [A] above, we find that the inverse of this matrix is... 

In view of the difficulties that accompany the use of a nonaqueous solvent, one may certainly ask why such use is necessary. The answer includes several of the important principles of nonaqueous solvent chemistry that will be elaborated on in this chapter. First, solubilities are different. In some cases, classes of compounds are more soluble in some nonaqueous solvents than they are in water. Second, the strongest acid that can be used in an aqueous solution is H30+. As was illustrated in Chapter 9, any acid that is stronger than H30+ will react with water to produce H30+. In some other solvents, it is possible to routinely work with acids that are stronger than H30+. Third, the strongest base that can exist in aqueous solutions is OH-. Any stronger base will react with water to produce OH-. In some nonaqueous solvents, a base stronger than OH - can exist, so it is possible to carry out certain reactions in such a solvent that cannot be carried out in aqueous solutions. These differences permit synthetic procedures to be carried out in nonaqueous solvents that would be impossible when water is the solvent. As a result, chemistry in nonaqueous solvents is an important area of inorganic chemistry, and this chapter is devoted to the presentation of a brief overview of this area. 

Such cells are often classified on the basis of their original source as either embryonic or adult stem cells. As the name suggests, embryonic stem cells are derived from the early embryo, whereas adult stem cells are present in various tissues of the adult species. Much of the earlier work on embryonic stem cells was conducted using mouse embryos. Human embryonic stem cells were first isolated and cultured in the laboratory in 1998. Research on adult stem cells spans some four decades, with the discovery during the 1960s of haematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow (Chapter 10). However, the exact distribution profile, role and ability to manipulate adult stem cells (particularly those outside of the bone marrow) are subjects of intense current research, and for which more questions remain than are answered. 

Some neurons can fire several hundred times per second, secreting neurotransmitter each time. Synapses are remarkable secretion machines destined to undergo millions of repeated exocytic cycles in their lifetime. So how does this process work so fast and so efficiently Answers have gradually emerged from the work of many different laboratories and model systems [73, 74]. An exhaustive description is beyond the scope of this chapter, but a summary of key events and specializations of the synaptic vesicle cycle is useful. This will show how synaptic transmission is optimized spatially and biochemically (see also Chs 6,10 and 22). 

We have introduced into each chapter a number of worked examples which we believe are essential to a proper understanding of the methods of treatment given in the text. It is very desirable for a student to understand a worked example before tackling fresh practical problems himself. Chemical Engineering problems require a numerical answer, and it is essential to become familiar with the different techniques so that the answer is obtained by systematic methods rather than by intuition. ... 

This chapter discusses the work at DuPont and provides a simple set of tools to explore the interactions between membranes and electrolysers at high current densities. In fact, these tools help to provide the answer to the following question ... 

The "Questions" in these worked examples refer to the twelve questions in Chapter 3. Question 1 ("Is intentional chemistry performed at your facility ") should be answered YES for this example, since raw materials are processed such that a chemical reaction is intended to take place. Products are of a different chemical composition than the starting materials. Intentional chemistry is also likely being practiced in the waste treatment facility. 

A novice might think that a lab analyst obtains a single sample from a bulk system, analyzes it one time in the laboratory, and reports the answer to this one analysis as the analysis results. If variances in the sampling and lab work are both insignificant, these results may be valid. However, due to possible large variances in both the sampling and the lab work, such a result cannot be considered reliable. In Chapter 1, we indicated that the correct procedure is to perform the analysis many times and deal with the variances with statistics. 

If you answered 4-7 questions correctly, you need to refresh yourself on these topics. Carefully read through the lesson in this chapter for review and skill building.
