Question 1

For a particular battery based on one of the following reactions, E is expected to remain constant with time until the cell reactants are almost completely consumed. Which is the appropriate reaction?
◦ Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s)
◦ 2 NiO(OH)(s) + Cd(s) + 2 H2O(l) → 2 Ni(OH)2(s) + Cd(OH)2(s)
◦ Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 HSO4-(aq) → 2 PbSO4(s) + 2 H2O(l)
◦ Zn(s) + 2 MnO2(s) + 2 NH4+(aq) → 2 NH3(aq) + Mn2O3(s) + Zn2+(aq) + H2O(l)

Question 2

The cell reaction for a lead storage battery is:

Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 HSO4-(aq) → 2 PbSO4(s) + 2 H2O(l)
E° = +1.92 V

To provide a potential of about 12 V, one could
◦ adjust the pH to 1.
◦ connect six cells in series.
◦ greatly increase the surface area of the Pb(s) and PbO2(s).
◦ adjust the pH to 12.

Once thought to have neurofibromatosis, Joseph Merrick (also known as "the elephant man") is now, in retrospect, thought by clinical experts to have had Proteus syndrome. This endocrine disease causes continued and abnormal growth of the bones, muscles, skin, and so on and can become completely debilitating with severe deformities occurring anywhere on the body.

Did you know?

Inotropic therapy does not have a role in the treatment of most heart failure patients. These drugs can make patients feel and function better but usually do not lengthen the predicted length of their lives.

Did you know?

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

The human body produces and destroys 15 million blood cells every second.
