Question 2: A study was undertaken to compare the waste-generating behaviour of residents in four remote, isolated communities: Pétaouchnok, Malakazoo, Erehwon, and Naschmere. 20 households were randomly selected from each of these communities, and the average daily garbage output measured over a specified period of time. The data obtained is shown in the table below (values in kg/day of waste per capita): Pétaouchnok Malakazoo Erehwon Naschmere 2.3 4.5 1.1 1.7 3.3 3.0 4.1 1.1 3.3 2.3 2.0 0.0 4.4 1.8 3.9 3.1 2.6 3.3 2.1 3.9 3.3 5.2 2.7 3.4 5.3 3.7 5.0 3.3 0.0 3.1 2.6 2.9 3.7 2.2 4.3 3.1 2.5 5.0 5.4 3.1 1.9 5.0 2.7 1.3 2.9 1.8 0.7 1.7 1.0 3.0 2.8 1.8 4.4 4.6 2.8 1.9 3.6 4.0 3.1 2.1 3.7 1.7 4.1 3.2 3.4 3.1 3.7 2.6 4.0 3.2 4.8 1.9 2.5 2.5 3.0 2.7 3.7 1.7 3.7 2.9 a) Calculate the grand mean, as well as the sample mean and variance for each town, for average per capita waste in kg/day. b) At LOC = 95%, what would you conclude about whether or not there is any difference in garbage generation rates across these four towns? Use the critical-value method. c) Using the p-value method, determine if your conclusion from Part (a) would be different for any common values of LOC.

C. Effect of adding a strong acid base to an amphoteric hydroxide

1. Obtain approximately 20.0 mL of 1.0 M zinc nitrate solution and place it into a 150 mL beaker.

2. Add 6 M sodium hydroxide (with mixing), in a drop-wise fashion, until a reasonable amount of solid appears.

3. Divide the mixture from step 2 into approximately two equal portions. (This mixture contains the amphoteric hydroxide.)

4. To one of the two portions, continue to add 6 Msodium hydroxide (with mixing) until you see a distinct change in the mixture. Note how much sodium hydroxide solution was added. (Recall: 20 drops  1 mL)

5. To the other portion, add 6 M nitric acid (with mixing) until you see a distinct change in the mixture. Note how much nitric acid solution was added. Dispose of the solutions in the appropriate waste receptacle

results for part c are as follow

1. My mom has been in pain due to a pinched nerve on her spine. She was advised to do some injections to manage some of the pain. I decided to do a little research on my own to learn whether other patients feel any major difference after the injections. A detailed survey is presented to 25 patients and results were recorded in a scale of 1 to 10 to mesure the level of pain after the injection. Use the sample data to construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean pain level for the population (assumed normal) from the following data: 7.4, 0.0, 2.1, 8.1, 7.2, 7.0, 3.2, 6.9, 0.5, 4.3, 2.2, 8.6, 7.8, 8.8, 5.9, 7.9, 1.8, 2.8, 1.7, 8.9, 9.4, 9.6, 4.3, 8.2 and 1.0.

a. What is the average?
b. What is the standard deviation?
c. What is the sample size?
d. What is the degrees of freedom?
e. What is the distribution to be used?
f. At 90% confidence interval what t value will you be using?
g. What is the EBM?
h. What is the lower bound of the confidence interval?
i. What is the upper bound of the confidence interval?
j. Based on the confidence interval that you have calculated, would you say that at 90% confidence interval, would it be worth taking the injection? Why? (remember they are given a scale from 1 to 10, being 1 being no pain difference and 10, major pain relief.

Iconic memory is a type of memory that holds visual information for about half a second (0.5 seconds). To demonstrate this type of memory, participants were shown three rows of four letters for 50 milliseconds. They were then asked to recall as many letters as possible, with a 0-, 0.5-, or 1.0-second delay before responding. Researchers hypothesized that longer delays would result in poorer recall. The number of letters correctly recalled is given in the table.

1. In order to determine the size of a home-heating furnace, it is necessary to estimate the heat loss during the coldest day in winter. Provide the rates of heat loss per unit surface area for the following surfaces commonly encountered in house construction. You may assume an inside air temperature of 25°C, an outside temperature of -5°C, and heat transfer coefficients of 20 Wm-2K-1 and 5 Wm-2K-1 between air and the outside and inside surfaces, respectively. The thermal conductivities of glass and air are 1.4 and 0.026 Wm-1K-1, respectively.

a. A 3 mm-thick single-pane glass window.

b. A double-pane glass window consisting of two 3 mm-thick panels separated by a 6 mm-thick layer of stagnant air.

c. A composite wall consisting of a 10-cm-thick brick exterior (k = 1.0 Wm-1K-1), a 10-cm-thick layer of loosely packed glass fiber insulation (k = 0.043 Wm-1K-1), and an inside gypsum plaster wall (k = 0.17 Wm-1K-1) that is 1 cm thick.

d. Workmen installing a wall of the design described in part (c) are asking for a premium to install a vapor barrier on the plaster wall to prevent moisture from diffusing out of the house and condensing in the glass fiber insulation. If the dew point of the moist air in the house were 10°C would you pay the premium? Why?
