  7. A Problem 5 Suppose that you add a small ice cube to room temperature (25oC) water in a coffee cup calorimeter. What is the final temperature when all of the ice is melted? Assume that you have 200. mL of water and that the ice cube weighs 15.0 g and is at 0oC before being added to the water. Heat of fusion of water = 333 J/g

  8. A Problem 6 If you want to convert 56.0 g ice (at 0oC) to water at 75.0oC, how many grams of propane (C3H8) would you have to run to supply the energy to melt the ice and then warm it to the final temperature?

  9. M Space slugs – Star Wars Silicon-Based Life Is silicon-based life likely to be more stable or less stable than carbon-based life? J. Chem. Ed.1988, 65, 414.

  10. M Stability of Silicon vs Carbon • Consider decomposition of alkanes and silanes to the elements (no oxygen in space for that slug to worry about). • Consider combustion of silanes and alkanes (will those silicon-based life forms make it on earth?).

  11. M Thermochemical Behavior with Respect to Reversion to the Elements Si2H6 (g) → 2 Si (s) + 3 H2 (g) C2H6 (g) → 2 C(s) + 3 H2 (g) DHof Si2H6 (g) = 80.4 kJ/mol DHof C2H6 (g) -84.7 kJ/mol DHrxn = 0 + 0 – 80.4 = -80.4 kJ/mol DHrxn = 0 + 0 – (-84.7) = 84.7 kJ/mol Exothermic ! Endothermic!

  12. M Thermochemical Behavior with Respect to Combustion 7/2 O2 (g) + Si2H6 (g) → 2 SiO2 (s) + 3 H2O(g) DHf = Si2H6 (g) = -80.4 kJ/mol SiO2 (s) = -911 kJ/mol H2O(g) = -242 kJ/mol CO2 (g) = -394 kJ/mol C2H6 (g) = -85 kJ/mol 7/2 O2 (g) + C2H6 (g) → 2 CO2 (s) + 3 H2O(g) DHrxn = [2(-911) + 3(-242)] – [1(-80.4)] = -2468 kJ DHrxn = [2(-394) + 3(-242)] –[1 (-85)] = -1429 kJ Exothermic ! Exothermic!

  13. M Space slugs – Star Wars Silicon-Based Life Is silicon-based life likely to be more stable or less stable than carbon-based life? Thermochemical considerations indicate that silicon-based life would tend to decompose exothermically! Our space slug unlikely to survive.

  14. A Muskov Case Study How did you determine if the level of nitrate in the well was higher than the MCL?

  15. A

  16. A A = log10P0/ PA = log10 1 / TA = log10 100 / %TA = 2 - log10 %T  Measuring Concentrations of Contaminants • Utilize spectroscopy if the molecule absorbs light. Transmittance, T = P / P0% Transmittance, %T = 100 T Absorbance, P Po b sample

  17. A What kind of relationship do absorbance and concentration have? Describe why and how you would use absorbance to find concentration? (use an equation in your description)

  18. A Beer-Lambert law: A=ebc A absorbance (no units, since A = log 10P0/ P ) e molar absorptivity with units of L mol-1 cm-1. Molar absorptivity is a constant unique to every colored molecule at a particular wavelength. b is the path length of the sample, that is, the length that the light must travel through the sample expressed in centimeters. c is the concentration of the molecule in solution, expressed in mol L-1 (M)

  19. A Molar Absorptivity A compound with a high molar absorptivity is very effective at absorbing light (of the appropriate wavelength); a very low concentration of this compound will have a high absorption. A compound with a low molar absorptivity absorbs less light per unit concentration, so it will take a higher concentration of this compound to reach the same absorbance.

  20. A Path Length The Beer-Lambert Law implies that the fraction of the light absorbed by each layer of solution is the same.

  21. A One note on case study: Anti-bacterial Soaps • “Normal usage" (according to directions) of these products will destroy some beneficial bacteria. Fortunately, the normal bacteria population within the septic system is sufficient and adequate to quickly recover. Significant treatment problems, with conservative use, should not occur. Excessive use of these products in the home can cause significant and even total destruction of the bacteria population.” • University of Arizona http://ag.arizona.edu/pubs/water/az1258.html

  24. M Why is water important? • Support life (cook, food, heat/cool, economy) • Clean • Transportation • Recreation • More plants and animals live in water than on land

  25. M What are common water issues? • Pollution/health • Ownership • Who polices it • Who cleans it up (who pays)

  26. M Distribution of Drinking Water on Earth From: Kegley, S. E., Landfear, D., Jenkins, D., Gross, B., Shomglin, K. Water Treatment: How Can We Make our Water Safe to Drink? Norton: 2004.

  27. M Drinkable Water Define the desirable characteristics of drinkable water.   Is the best water supply composed of 100% H2O? What is the water source for our community? How many of you have lived someplace where there was a septic system? Where well water was used as the drinking source?

  28. M What’s in water that is harmful?

  29. M Drinking Water Standards Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act in 1974. Amended in 1986 and 1996, the law requires the EPA to set standards for contaminant levels such that the concentrations of these species do not threaten public health and safety. 1) Primary contaminants: those substances that may cause serious health problems above certain concentrations. 2) Secondary contaminant: substances that are not toxic but detract from water quality, affecting such characteristics as appearance, smell, and taste.

In order to simplify the diagram, the water molecules have not been shown. 12 dots Which response represents the view after 1.0 L of water was added (Figure 2). 6 dots 7 dots 12 dots 24 dots

  32. M What’s added to water intentionally? • What may you want to be there? • Bubbles • Caffeine • Vitamins • Soy • Sugar • Flavors • Fluoride

  33. M Bottled Water • According to the Beverage Marketing Corporation, manufacturers sold more than $7.7 billion worth of bottled water in the United States in 2002. • The average U.S. consumer drank 21 gallons of bottled water, • A 1997 report published in International Journal of Sports Nutrition found that in 52 healthy nonsmoking adults, who exercised 30 minutes two to four times a week, drinking flavored water actually increased fluid consumption by 20 percent.

  36. A Proposals Proposal Meetings during studio, Friday 11/3 • 12 minutes • 1 hard copy of proposal for us to keep (in template format) • No more than 5 minutes to present proposal orally • Questions and discussion

  37. A Other Facets of “Scientific Research” • Does trial and error fit into scientific research? • Does creativity fit into scientific research?

  38. A Complexity: Molecules vs. Systems vs. People • What are the differences? • Do you still use the scientific method? • Do you understand the consequences of your actions/results?

  39. A Characteristics of Good Inquiry • Investigations are conducted for different reasons: • Exploring new phenomena • Checking previous results • Test how well a theory predicts • Compare different theories • Sometimes scientists can control conditions in order to obtain evidence. When that is not possible for ethical reasons, they try to observe as wide a range of natural occurrences as possible in order to discern patterns.

  40. A Characteristics of Good Inquiry • There are different traditions in science about what is investigated and how, but they all have in common certain beliefs about the value of evidence, logic, and good arguments. There is agreement that progress in all fields of science depends on intelligence, hard work, imagination, and even chance.

  41. A Characteristics of Good Inquiry • Scientists in any one research group tend to see things alike, so even groups of scientists may have trouble being entirely objective about their methods and findings. For that reason, scientific teams are expected to seek out the possible sources of bias in the design of their investigations and in their data analysis. Checking each other’s results and explanations help, but there is no guarantee against bias.

  42. A Bias • Symphony trials • Unconscious bias (Reskin, B. Regional Review, 2005, 33-37.) • Women, minorities, elderly, overweight http://implicit.harvard.edu/ • Bias even in scientific results…how? • Is bias an ethical issue?

  43. M From: http://microbiology.georgetown.edu/education/bioscipoladv.html

  44. M Science Policy • How does research impact decisions about life/funding? • Should research be published and open to everyone? • (milk/terrorism)

  45. M Science Policy: Budget

  46. M Proposed Total Federal Budget, FY2006 Fiscal year 2006 runs from October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2006. The Bush Administration, in its proposed budget, did not include spending on the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan. Other includes general science, space and technology; energy; agriculture; commerce and housing credit; community and regional development; general government; allowances; and undistributed offsetting receipts.

  47. M National Science Foundation (NSF) The National Science Foundation (NSF) budget was cut in 2005 In 2006, there is a proposed increase of 2.4% to $5.6 billion Most increase allotted to facilities funding Most programs receive a 1% increase (but still would be below 2004 budget) Cuts in education and training Total number of research grants funded in 2006: 6310 1 in 5 applications funded From: http://www.aaas.org/spp/rd/prel06pr.htm

  48. M Science Policy: Laws • Environmental controls • Speed limits • BAC
