1. A state has an energy = 76.5×10−21 J and a degeneracy of 15. What is the free energyof the state at 25◦C and at 150◦C? Express your answer in kJ/mol.
2. A molecule has a bond that can rotate between the cis and trans
states, both of whichhave zero entropy. It is found that the trans
state is three times more common than thecis state when the
temperature is 250 K. If the molecule is heated to 450 K, what is
thenew ratio of trans to cis?
3. A system consists of two independent subsystems, A and B.
Subsystem A has 1.3 × 106
allowed microstates and subsystem B has 4.6 × 107 allowed
microstates. What is theentropy of the combined system?
4. Macrostate X consists of 5 microstates, each of which have an
energy of x = 1.5×10−21
Joules. Macrostate Y consists of 150 microstates, each of which
have an energy y =7.0 × 10−21 J. Calculate probability that the
system is in state X if the temperature is25◦C.
5. A molecular system at room temperature (25◦C) is found with
energy EA 95% of thetime and with energy EB 5% of the time. It is
known that state A consists of an ensembleof 3 microstates while
there are only 2 microstates in state B. Determine the differencein
energies between the two states (EA − EB).
6. Chemical reactions are often described using a three state
modelReactants → Transition State → ProductsIn most cases the
energy of the transition state is much higher than the energy of
the
reactant state. This means that the reaction cannot proceed until
there is a randomthermal fluctuation large enough to ‘kick’ the
reactant molecule(s) up to the transitionstate energy. Say we have
a reaction in which the transition state is 9.0 × 10−20 J abovethe
reactant state.
(a) Calculate the ratio of the probability the system is in the
transition state to the probability
that it is in the reactant state PTS/PR at 37◦C.
(b) Use your answer above to estimate the time it takes for the reaction to occurspontaneously at 37◦C. Assume that the system samples a new microstate everynanosecond (10−9 s).
(c) One way to speed up the reaction is to heat the system. If the
temperature isincreased to 1000 K, how long does it take for the
reaction to occur?
(d) In biological systems it is not feasible to accelerate
reactions by heating them to1000 K. Instead, the reactions rely on
enzymes that catalyze reactions by loweringthe energy of the
transition state. If catalyzed reaction has a transition state
energy2.0 × 10−20 J, what is the approximate reaction time? Use a
temperature 37◦C.
1
(e) Finally, estimate the uncatalyzed reaction time if the transition state is not a uniquemicrostate, but actually an ensemble of 100 microstates. Use a temperature 37◦C.
7. A salt ion is dissolved in a large volume of pure water. The
wall of the container has asingle defect that can bind the ion with
an energy bound = −2.1 × 10−19 J.
(a) If the ion is only bound to the impurity site 2% of the time at
room temperature(25◦C), what is the free energy of the ion in the
unbound state? Assume that thefree energy of the bound state is
equal to the binding energy (the state is non-degenerate).
(b) Calorimetry experiments reveal that the energy of the ion in the unbound state issolv = −5.1 × 10−20 J. Is the change in energy bigger or smaller than kBT at roomtemperature? [i.e. calculate (solv − bound)/kBT]
(c) What is the entropy of the unbound state?
(d) How many microstates are in the unbound ensemble?

Make a list of 5 sectors heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and explain why that is the case. Also make a list of the 3 sectors that have shown the potential for gains and growth during the pandemic and name the top companies in these gaining sectors. Along with the lists, please explain why you think such companies have the potential to grow given the current situation. Provide details into what the company does, how it operates and especially it's stock performance, which are important aspects to consider when investing. The basis of your inferences should be an analysis of the stock performance of these companies, stock performance and how it operates.
The answer needs to be well detailed and it shouldn't be answered with very little detail. Please answer after reading the question properly and answer the question with details.

Baby H. was just born in a hospital that provides single-room
maternity care (SRMC). SRMC allows the
infant to remain with the parents after birth. H.'s mother was in
labor for 12 hours and gave birth vaginally.
Baby H. is the first baby born to these parents. The nurse will
complete the physical assessment and
observe for physiologic changes in the infant's transition from
intrauterine to extrauterine life.
1. Name the three phases that occur during this transition period
and state an approximate
time frame for each.
2. What care is specific to the first period of reactivity?
3. The sleep phase and second reactive phase might occur in the
SRMC or in the nursery. Identify
eight assessments or tasks that the nurse needs to do during the
transitional care period.
4. You are preparing to give the injection of vitamin K
(AquaMEPHYTON). The order is to
give 0.5 mg subcutaneously on arrival in the nursery. The
medication comes in a solution of
1 mg/0.5 mL. Calculate how much medication you will draw up into
the syringe.
5. Erythromycin ointment is instilled in both eyes to prevent which
of these infections?
a. Chlamydia
b. Herpes simplex virus infection
c. Gonorrhea
d. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
6. Once the transitional care and documentation are completed, the
infant might be transferred
to the normal newborn nursery if the hospital does not use SRMC.
The newborn nursery
nurse is responsible for what ongoing care of the newborn
infant?
7. The laboratory performs a Coombs test on Baby H. What is the
purpose of the Coombs test?
a. It is done to identify the infant's blood type.
b. It tests for damage to the red blood cells (RBCs) from maternal
antibodies.
c. It checks the RBCs for anemia.
d. It is a test for immunity to the hepatitis virus.
8. True or False: A phenylketonuria (PKU) blood test can be done
any time before an infant is
discharged to home. If false, explain your rationale.
