Though many MNCs espouse and follow rigid codes of social responsibility in their home countries they are often not as diligent with respect to ‘host’ or overseas countries. In 1984 the Bhopal disaster in Madhya Pradesh, India killed 3,787 and impacted a further 558,125 people. The corporation in question was Union Carbide, a majority USA owned company. Indian courts convicted the Chairman and other senior executives of “…causing death by negligence”. Why do you believe that Union Carbide had a less stringent policy in India with respect to negligence than they did in the USA?
It is desired to determine the molecular weight of an organic compound known to be volatile. For this, a glass balloon with a full volume of 152 mL is weighed and the weighing result is recorded as 215 g. Then, the organic compound that is desired to have some molecular weight in liquid form is added into the balloon and evaporated in a water bath until dryness. After the steam temperature is measured as 90 °C, the balloon is left to cool and the organic compound in the balloon condenses again. The balloon is then weighed again and recorded as 215,367g. Find the molecular weight of this organic compound since the pressure of the environment where the experiment is performed is 700 mmHg.
