Consider the equation for the decomposition of SO2Cl2.

SO2Cl2 (g) → SO2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

The concentration of SO2Cl2 is monitored at a fixed temperature as a function of time during the decomposition reaction, and the following data are tabulated:

(a) Show that the reaction is first order and determine the rate constant for the reaction.

(b) Use the graph and the best fitting line in the previous example to predict the concentration of SO2Cl2 at 1900 s.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
