What are the pros and cons of modern medicine? (I'm rewarding 25 points)

Chemistry

Sergio [31]3 years ago

Pros: The rate at which modern medicine is advancing is astonishing. You can sit on your couch and watch TV and see commercials for new medications at an alarming pace — and these new medications have reduced our death rates for stroke, heart disease, and cancer. In fact, due to modern medicine, the death rate from heart disease has decreased by 60% since 1970! The death rate for HIV/AIDS has dropped more than 75% since 1995, when its was at its peak.

Cons: However, critics of modern medicine are quick to point out that there is a pill for everything . Yes we are quick to create more drugs, and yes, we are living longer due to said drugs but are we living better?
Medicine has evolved, and we now have surgeons who are able to perform surgeries robotically. But critics point out that medicine has evolved to the point that we are treating disease instead of preventing it .

What happens when an atom becomes to gain a -1 charge it will
raketka [301]

If a gas at 25.0 °C occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm, what will be its volume at a pressure of 2.50 atm?
Llana [10]
Since the temperature is constant, therefore, this problem can be solved based on Boyle's law.
Boyle's law states that: " At constant temperature, the pressure of a certain mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure".

This can be written as:
P1V1 = P2V2
where:
P1 is the initial pressure = 1 atm
V1 is the initial volume = 3.6 liters
P2 is the final pressure = 2.5 atm
V2 is the final volume that we need to calculate

Substitute with the givens in the above mentioned equation to get the final volume as follows:
P2V1 = P2V2
1(3.6) = 2.5V2
3.6 = 2.5V2
V2 = 3.6 / 2.5 = 1.44 liters
