You are a mass spectrometry expert working for Airgas, a leading supplier of specialty and medical gases. The mass spectrometer you are working on is severely miscalibrated, and thus measurements of molecular masses are untrustworthy. Fortunately, the percent abundances are highly precise! If you use BrCl to calibrate the instrument, what would be the percent abundance of the most intense (highest or tallest) peak? Chlorine naturally occurs as Cl-35 and Cl-37 with 75.76% and 24.24% natural abundance, respectively. Bromine naturally occurs as Br-79 and Br-81 with 50.69% and 49.31% natural abundance, respectively.

Calculate the average density of a single Al-27 atom by assuming that it is a sphere with a radius of 0.143 nm. The masses of a proton, electron, and neutron are 1.67261024g,9.10941028g, and 1.67491024g, respectively. The volume of a sphere is 4r3/3, where r is its radius. Express the answer in grams per cubic centimeter. The density of aluminum is found experimentally to be 2.70 g/cm3. What does that suggest about the packing of aluminum atoms in the metal?
Paracelsus, a sixteenth-century alchemist and healer, adopted as his slogan: The patients are your textbook, the sickbed is your study. Is this view consistent with using the scientific method?
In Active Example 3-29 you calculated that you would have to work six weeks to earn enough money to buy a 1082.49 television. You would be working five shifts of four hours each at 9.25/hr. But, alas, when you received your first pay check, you found that exactly 23 of your earnings had been withheld for social security, federal and state income taxes, and workers compensation insurance. Taking these into account, how many weeks will it take to earn the 1082.49?
As part of a science project, you study traffic patterns in your city at an intersection in the middle of downtown. You set up a device that counts the ears passing through this intersection for a 24-hr period during a weekday. The graph of hourly traffic looks like this. a. At what time(s) does the highest number of cars pass through die intersection? b. At what time(s) does the lowest number of cars pass through die intersection? c. Briefly describe the trend in numbers of cars over the course of die day. d. Provide a hypothesis explaining the trend in numbers of cars over the course of the day. e. Provide a possible experiment that could test your hypothesis.
