The partial pressure at 25 °C of the water vapour above a water-ethanol solution for which x(H2O) = 0.5 is 3.7 kPa. The total vapour pressure is 8.7 kPa. For pure water at 25°C, p*(H2O) = 3.4 kPa; for pure ethanol p*(ethanol) = 4.3 kPa. Calculate the activity and activity coefficient of the water.

The pore size of membranes can be measured by using the decrease in vapour pressure of liquid nitrogen condensed in the pores (i.e. cavities) at low temperatures. Calculate the diameter of the pores in a membrane if at 80.0 K the pressure of N2 gas above the membrane is measured to be 1.310 bar. At […]

Explain why insurance companies (which are considered payers) should or should not pay (reimburse) for injuries, extended costs, re-admissions, or death (mortality) from a hospital-acquired infection or medical error. Support your why or why not?

Landmark studies To Err is Human (1999) and Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001) from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) identified medical errors are causing harm and death to almost 45,000 Americans and costing over $29 billion every year. Other studies have indicated preventable healthcare associated conditions (HACs) such as infections, sepsis, CHF, and pneumonia are […]
