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.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

1.5 moles

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

2 MnO2 + 4 KOH + O2 --> 2KMnO 4 + 2KOH + H2

From the equation,

2 moles of MnO2 produces 2 moles of KMnO4

x moles of MnO2 would produce 1.5 moles of KMnO4

2 = 2

x = 1.5

Solving for x;

x = 1.5 * 2 / 2

x = 1.5 moles
