Question 1

If an electrolysis plant operates its electrolytic cells at a total current of 1.2 × 106 amp, how long will it take to produce one metric ton (one million grams) of Mg(s) from seawater containing Mg2+? (1 faraday = 96,485 coulombs)

1.8 h
1.8 days
55 min
0.92 h
0.46 year

Question 2

In order to determine the identity of a particular lanthanide metal (M), a voltaic cell is constructed at 25°C with the anode consisting of the lanthanide metal as the electrode immersed in a solution of 0.0594 M MCl3, and the cathode consisting of a copper electrode immersed in a 1.00 M Cu(NO3)2 solution. The two half-reactions are as follows:
M(s) → M3+(aq) + 3e
Cu2+(aq) + 2e→ Cu(s)
The potential measured across the cell is 2.64 V. What is the identity of the metal?
Reduction Half-Reaction
E° (V)
Cu2+(aq) + 2e→ Cu(s)
0.34
Ce3+(aq) + 3e→ Ce(s)
–2.336
Dy3+(aq) + 3e→ Dy(s)
–2.295
Eu3+(aq) + 3e→ Eu(s)
–1.991
Gd3+(aq) + 3e→ Gd(s)
–2.279
Sm3+(aq) + 3e→ Sm(s)
–2.304

Anesthesia awareness is a potentially disturbing adverse effect wherein patients who have been paralyzed with muscle relaxants may awaken. They may be aware of their surroundings but unable to communicate or move. Neurologic monitoring equipment that helps to more closely check the patient's anesthesia stages is now available to avoid the occurrence of anesthesia awareness.

Though the United States has largely rejected the metric system, it is used for currency, as in 100 pennies = 1 dollar. Previously, the British currency system was used, with measurements such as 12 pence to the shilling, and 20 shillings to the pound.

Medications that are definitely not safe to take when breastfeeding include radioactive drugs, antimetabolites, some cancer (chemotherapy) agents, bromocriptine, ergotamine, methotrexate, and cyclosporine.

Did you know?

There used to be a metric calendar, as well as metric clocks. The metric calendar, or "French Republican Calendar" divided the year into 12 months, but each month was divided into three 10-day weeks. Each day had 10 decimal hours. Each hour had 100 decimal minutes. Due to lack of popularity, the metric clocks and calendars were ended in 1795, three years after they had been first marketed.
