The toxic effects of ingesting methanol can be reduced by administering ethanol. The ethanol acts as a competitive inhibitor of methanol by displacing it from LADH. If an individual has ingested 50 mL of methanol, how much 100 proof whiskey (50% ethanol by volume) must be imbibed to reduce the activity (Vo) of his LADH towards methanol to 3% of its original value? The adult human body contains ~40L of aqueous fluids throughout which ingested alcohols are rapidly and uniformly mixed. Assume the concentration of methanol in the body is 18mM and whiskey is 6.5M ethanol. Assume the KM values of LADH for ethanol and methanol to be 10-3 M and 10-2 M, respectively, and that Ki = KM for ethanol.

We have seen from our study of acid/base chemistry that the presence of a weak base such as ammonia (Kb = 1.8 X 10-5) can affect the pH of an aqueous solution. This pH can in turn affect the solubility of a metal hydroxide salt as a result of the common ion effect. The Ksp for gallium hydroxide = 7.28 X 10-36. What is the molar solubility of gallium hydroxide in a 3.00M solution of ammonia?

Analysis of Group 1 Cations
1) Explain what you would do to prove that a solution contained mercury(I) ion.
2) You are given a white solid and told that it is either strontium nitrate or lead(II) nitrate. Explain what you would do to determine the identity of the solid.
3) You are told that an acid is either hydrochloric acid or nitric acid. What simple test could you carry out to tell which acid it is?
4) You are given a solution and asked to determine which group I cations are present in it. Addition of hydrochloric acid results in the formation of a precipitate. The precipitate is washed with hot deionized water. When the filtrate from hot water washing is tested with potassium chromate solution, a precipitate forms. When a solution of ammonia is added to the remaining precipitate from the addition of HCL, it completely dissolves. What do you conclude?
5) A yellow solid is either lead(II) chromate or sodium chromate. What would you do to tell which compound the solid is?
6) Givee an example of a group(IV) cation in the qualitative series.
