From a livestock auction of over 1,800 head of cattle, the weights and prices per hundredweight (cwt) of some steers and heifers are given in Table 3-1.
a. Make a line graph (putting both steers and heifers on the same graph) from the given data, putting the weights on the horizontal axis and the prices on the vertical axis.
b. At what weight would you receive the best price per heifer?
c. What is the percent increase or decrease in the price of a 300-pound steer compared to a 600-pound steer? (Note: Price per steer, not price per pound.)
The conversion of cyclobutane to ethylene
is a first-order reaction. This means that the concentration of cyclobutane at time t is given by lnC=ln
?kt, where C is the concentration at time t,
is the initial concentration, t is the time since the reaction started, and k is the rate constant. Assume that
=0.2 mol/L with negligible uncertainty. After 300 seconds at a constant temperature, the
concentration is measured to be C=0.174 ± 0.005 mol/L. Assume that time can be measured with negligible uncertainty.
a. Estimate the rate constant k, and find the uncertainty in the estimate. The units of k will be .
b. Find the relative uncertainty in k.
c. The half-life of the reaction is the time it takes for the concentration to be reduced to one-half its initial value. The half-life is related to the rate constant by
=(ln 2)/k. Using the result found in part (a), find the uncertainty in the half-life.
d. Find the relative uncertainty in the half-life.
