A pharmaceutical company claimed that experiments showed that its drug could effectively reduce the growth of cancer cells by 35

percent. However, when five independent laboratories conducted the same experiment, they measured a reduction rate of only 5–8 percent. How did these laboratories show that the pharmaceutical company’s claims were invalid?

Answer :  The labs were unable to reproduce the pharmaceutical company’s data.

Explanation : Any scientific claim must have reproducible experimental data. In this case, when the pharmaceutical company has the claim of reducing the cancer growth cells by 35% then by using the same manufacturing procedure for the drug and lab should be able to get this result. But they failed to match up with the results which clearly indicates that the labs were not able to produce the same results and hence they concluded that the pharmaceutical company's claims were invalid.

In an electrolytic cell, the magnitude of the standard cell potential is the:______
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a. minimum voltage that must be supplied for a redox reaction to occur

c. always equal to Eanode - Ecathode

Explanation:

In an electrolytic cell;  The electromotive force(the maximum standard potential difference) of the cell formed by the system is defined as the standard electrode potential of the right handed electrode minus the standard electrode potential of the left hand electrode. (i.e \mathbf{E^{\theta}_{cell}=E_{anode} - E_{cathode}} )

As we all known that the process by which chemical energy is being converted to electrical energy is called the Electrochemical cell. It consists of two half cells , an oxidation half cell reaction and a reduction half-cell reaction.The overall redox reaction results in a flow of electrons in an electric current which is produced by a minimum voltage.

Therefore, option a and c are both correct.

The pOH of a solution is 6.0. Which statement is correct?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer : Option D) The pH of the solution is 8.0.

Explanation : pOH of a solution is a measure of hydroxide ion (OH^{-}) concentration in a particular solution. It gives the measure of alkalinity of a solution. Normally, aqueous solutions at 25°C have pOH which is less than 7 are usually alkaline, when pOH is found to be greater than 7 then they are acidic and when pOH will be equal to 7 then it is neutral.

pH + pOH = 14, this relationship is used to find pH of any unknown solution with given pOH value,

Here, we known pOH is 6.0, so we get,

pH = 14 - 6 = 8.0;

Hence, the pH will be 8.0.

How many moles of water are needed to react completely with 12 moles of sodium according to the balanced equation that follows?
LekaFEV [45]
Balanced equation:

<span>2 Na + 2 H₂O =  2 NaOH + H₂</span>

mole ratio : 

2 moles Na ----------- 2 moles H₂O
12 moles Na --------- ? moles H₂O

moles H₂O = 12 x 2 / 2

moles H₂O = 24 / 2

= 12 moles of H₂O 

hope this helps!
