Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important greenhouse gas with a Henry volatility constant of -4 3.3x10 mol/m3/Pa at 25°C. The enthalpy of dissolution is 2400 K. Two hundred years ago, the atmospheric CO2 level was 0.025%. Today's CO2 level is 0.04%. The average temperature in New York City (NYC) and Georgetown is 13°C and 27°C, respectively. Given the CO2 level today, what is the difference in aqueous concentration of CO2 in a river in NYC and Georgetown? Give your answer in mg/L.

Dr. X claims that she has found a new remedy (carrot extract) to cure acne. She scores an interview with the science writer for a local newspaper, and gets a brief article written about her and her claims in that newspaper. The article does not contain any experimental evidence, but mentions that Dr. X accidentally splashed some carrot extract on her face and found that the acne was reduced a few days later. Student Y finds the article and cites it as a source for a paper he is writing for class, as evidence that acne has been cured. (a) Is this finding a fact, a theory, a hypothesis, or an observation? Explain why you think so. (b) Was it OK for Student Y to use the newspaper article as evidence for his paper? Explain why or why not.
