A field worker is exposed to a xylene for a duration of 8 weeks at 40 hrs/wk. The concentration of xylene in the workplace is 40

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The chronic daily intake during the period of exposure is most nearly 0.012 mg/kg day.

Explanation:

Number of hours worker exposed to xylene = $40 hr/week\times 8 week = 320 hours$

The concentration of xylene in the workplace = $40 \mu g/m^3$

The worker is inhaling air at a rate of $0.9 m^3/hr$ .

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in an hour :

= $40\mu g/m^3\times 0.9 m^3/hr=36 \mu g/hr$

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 320 hours:

$36 \mu g/hr\times 320 hr=11,520 \mu g=11,520\times 0.001 mg=11.520 mg$

1 μg = 0.001 mg

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 320 hours = 11.520 mg

1 day = 24 hours

Amount xylene inhaled by worker in 1 day:

$\frac{24}{320}\times 11.520 mg=0.864 mg$

Assuming 70 kg body mass, the chronic daily intake of xylene :

$\frac{0.864 mg/day}{70 kg}=0.01234 mg/ kg day\approx 0.012 mg/ kg day$

The chronic daily intake during the period of exposure is most nearly 0.012 mg/kg day.

3) In the Hydrolysis of Disaccharides and Polysaccharides portion of the lab, starch should give one positive iodine test and on

AfilCa [17]

Answer: potassium iodide is the basic test for starch,and the positive test is blue-black coloration, any other test substance which is not starch will give a negative results.

Explanation:

Starch is an example of polysaccharide and since the standard test for it is potassium iodide solution, it gives a positive test.

Diasaccharides e.g maltose are reducing sugars.their standard test is BENEDICT test .

Therefore, in the hydrolysis; starch should give a positve test, while Diasaccharides should give negative rest.
