When suspected drunk drivers are tested with a Breathalyzer, the alcohol (ethanol) in the exhaled breath is oxidized to acetic acid with an acidic solution of potassium dichromate:

3CH3CH2OH(aq) + 2Cr2O7-2 (aq) + 16H+(aq)  3CH3CO2H(aq) + 4Cr+3(aq) + 11H2O (l)


If Eº for this cell is 1.30V and the standard half-cell potential of Cr2O7-2(aq) to Cr+3 is 1.358 V, what is the standard half-cell reduction potential for the conversion of acetic acid to ethanol?
◦ 2.658 V
◦ -0.058 V
◦ -2.658 V
◦ + 0.058 V

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).

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.
