If efficiency is our goal, how do we know if our economy is
running efficiently or not? What do you think about our current
economy? Is it running efficiently now?
If we recognize that our perceptions are always limited, what
can we do to improve our perception making? How can we make our
perceptions less limited?
What do we mean when we say that a histogram is skewed to the
left? To the right? What is a bimodal histogram? Discuss the
following statement: “A bimodal histogram usually results if we
draw a sample from two populations at once.” Suppose you took a
sample of weights of college football players and with this sample
you included the weights of cheerleaders. Do you think a histogram
made from the combined weights would be bimodal? Explain.

Unlike on the liquid-gas coexistence curve, on the liquid-solid
coexistence curve, we can assume that the latent heat and change in
volume are approximately independent of temperature. With this in
mind, derive a relationship for pressure as a function of
temperature on the liquid-solid coexistence curve
We used dichloromethane to perform a liquid-liquid extraction to
pull Eugenol out of our water distillate. Briefly describe how a
liquid-liquid extraction works.
Change is inevitable! Our world is constantly changing, and we
MUST change as well. We must embrace change and ride the wave of
change in such turbulent times (Lamarre, 2006). Particularly within
such volatile times. What is CHANGE? Is change positive, negative,
or both? Explain.
Consider sports: why are we humans drawn to competition, and
what does that say about our chances for survival on earth?
What survival skill does basketball mimic? How about baseball?
Football (either kind!)?
