Answer to Question 1

This is not good technique. A small amount of cold water should be used to wash the crystals. Room temperature water will dissolve a significant amount of crystals.

Answer to Question 2

Because glucose completely dissolves in water and is not volatile, it behaves like a soluble, non-volatile impurity in water. The overall vapor pressure of the solution is decreased leading to a higher boiling point at atmospheric pressure and a lower freezing point, which is fairly independent of the external pressure.

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).
