Chapter 2, Problem 2.31P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The expression for V(in3) in terms of t(h) should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The volume of a microbial culture is observed to increase according to following formula,

V(cm3)=aebtWhere,t=timeinseconds

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The units of a and b should be determined.

Concept introduction:

The volume of a microbial culture is observed to increase according to following formula,

V(cm3)=aebtWhere,t=timeinseconds

It is assumed that the given equation is valid and therefore dimensionally homogeneous. So, the dimension of the left hand side and right hand side of the equation is equal. In addition, the exp () component is dimensionless.

(c) Explain how ab initio method is different from semiempirical method.
The diffusion coefficient of water molecules in hydrogen (the carrier gas) at 307 k and 1 atm is 1 cm2/sec. What is the average time that the water molecules to travel a distance of 1 mm in the gas chromatographic system?  Assuming there no interactions between water and the system.
4. A new method for the determination of mercury in fish was tested against a N.I.S.T. standard to determine if there was any bias (determinate error) in the new technique. The N.I.S.T. standard fish sample was certified to contain 13.55 ppm Hg. The results of six analyses by the new method gave a mean value of 14.15 ppm and s.d. = 0.42 ppm. Does the new method give accurate results at the 95% confidence level?
