Chemistry 252 has focused on two main topics: the nature of the equilibrium state, and the rates of processes that take place to achieve equilibrium, i.e., chemical kinetics.

Write a paragraph that compares the information content required to describe the equilibrium state with that necessary to describe the rate processes that connect reactants and products.   In your answer, include a discussion of the energy levels, molecular motions, and appropriate length scales of all important species involved in specifying the equilibrium state. Include a similar discussion for any key species that play a role in the reaction rates that establish equilibrium.   Indicate how the properties of these species are incorporated into a theory of reaction rates.

Topics that may be helpful in constructing your answer:

             Potential energy surface

             Reaction coordinate

             Partition functions    

             Transition state

             Saddle point

Your paragraph should be written in acceptable scientific prose. You should use complete sentences, and the logical flow of your arguments should be clear. There is no word limit, but preferably no longer than a page typed.

In this module, you will look for an article or news story/video that relates to one or more of the following topics:

displacement in two or three dimensions

speed in two or three dimensions

velocity in two or three dimensions

acceleration in two or three dimensions

By the end of the third day of the module, create a thread with a 250-word post including one or more of the topics listed above, an active hyperlink to your resource (this resource cannot be used by another student), a summary of the resource itself, a summary of the material you are learning in this module as it relates to your resource (cite portions of the textbook), and an explanation of how the topic or resource ties to your everyday life.

In short, find an article that ties into one of the above topics and provide a link and a short desciption of the article and how it applies to displacement, speed, acceleration, and velocity in two or three dimensions. The article should apply to everyday life.

Please do not copy from someones previously made posts. I will thumbs up promptly if the answer meets the requirements. Thank you!

During a global career succession assessment of leadership talent pipeline, a candidate was asked to complete a personality/behavioral tendency profile. The candidate asked to speak to the program administrator about the validity of the assessment. The assessment is based on first responses to several sets of word values. The instructions were to respond with first instinct to the set of words listed in several different categories. The candidate stated that some of the words could have different interpretations based on values, beliefs, and cultural origin. Therefore, the validity of the assessment could be biased in terms of results/outcomes. The program administrator removed the weighting of the assessment (not part of the overall assessment scoring) to be used for informational and team building purposes only.

Use the above information to answer the following in 700 to 1,050 words:

• Analyze whether the candidate has a valid discrimination concern about the assessment.
• Determine what EEOC laws could potentially be at risk of violation.
• Evaluate how the assessment could be altered so that it could still be used for the program.

Seller says to Buyer Bob: "I'll sell you my bicycle for $400." Buyer Bob says: "Great, but I can only pay you
$200 now. I'll pay you the other $200 next Friday and pick up the bicycle then." Seller responds: "Well, I
wouldn't do this for everyone, but since I know you’re a man of your word, Bob, I’ll take that deal.” Buyer
Bob and Seller shake hands to show their agreement. Which of the following statements is true:

- If Seller can find a different buyer who will pay him $400 all in cash, he can revoke his offer to - Buyer Bob.
- Seller and Buyer have entered into a contract.
- There is no contract between Buyer Bob and Seller under the mirror image rule.
- If Buyer Bob changes his mind, he does not have to buy Seller's bike.
- There is no contract between Buyer Bob and Seller because Buyer Bob's initial response was a
counter offer.

Natural Language processing

Read and implement the code in NLTK Ch 6, Section 1.3 “Document Classification”, which examines the sentiment analysis of movie reviews.

a) Using the movie review document classifier discussed in this chapter, generate a list of the 30 features that the classifier finds to be most informative. Can you explain why these particular features are informative? Do you find any of them surprising?

b) Word features can be very useful for performing document classification, since the words that appear in a document give a strong indication about what its semantic content is. However, many words occur very infrequently, and some of the most informative words in a document may never have occurred in our training data. One solution is to make use of a lexicon, which describes how different words relate to one another. In a paragraph, describe how you might utilize the WordNet lexicon for this problem to improve the movie review document classifier.  

A company that makes language learning software wants to determine which of two approaches (Method A or Method B) to learning vocabulary would lead to the largest number of recalled words. The company wishes to evaluate the methods on 7 different languages (since languages differ in difficulty). Seven individuals, one per language, were recruited to learn words using Method A, and 7 individuals, one per language, were recruited to learn words using Method B.

After one month, each person completed a test of word recall. The data, representing the number of words recalled, are shown in the table below.

The company wishes to test whether there is a difference in the average number of words recalled between the two methods. Calculate the test statistic for this hypothesis to two decimal places. Take all calculations toward the final answer to three (3) decimal places.

4. The owner of specialty coffee shop wants to study coffee purchasing habits of customers at her shop. She selects a random sample of 60 customers during certain week, with the following results:

The amount spent was ? = $7.25, S = $1.75

Thirty-one customers say they definitely will” recommend the specialty coffee shop to family friends.

a. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the population mean amount spent was different from $6.50?

b. Determine the p-value in (a).

c. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that more than 50% of all customers say they “definitely will” recommend the specialty coffee shop to family and friends?

d. What is your answer to (a) if the sample mean equals $6.25?

e. What is your answer to (c) if 39 customers say they “definitely will” recommend the specialty coffee to family and friends?

f. Submit an excel file which clearly describes the data, intermediate calculations, and final results. Also submit a word file to provide explanation of each step while solving the problems.

Process costing serves two related purposes. First, it measures the cost of goods manufactured on both a total and per-unit basis. This information is used in valuing inventories and in recording the cost of goods sold. But process costing also provides management with information about the per-unit cost of performing each step in the production process. This information is useful in evaluating the efficiency of production departments and often draws attention to potential cost savings. Milton Manufacturing uses a process costing system. Products are processed successively by Department × and Department Y and are then transferred to the finished goods warehouse. Shown below is cost information for Department Y during the month of May: The assignment for this unit will consist of two parts, in a word document of 1-2 pages, address the following questions. 1. Briefly explain the operation of process costing, including the way the unit costs of finished goods are determined. 2. Discuss how managers will use the information obtained from process costing.

Directions: Answer the questions below (taken from the Winston book) using the indicated data set. Submit this on Blackboard in this Word document by the due date indicated on Blackboard. Only submissions in this format will be accepted. This homework will rely heavily on a close reading of the assigned text.

Please show all work! This is an abbreviated version in order to complete the full version.
