Amoxicillin is an antibiotic packaged as a powder. When it is used to treat babies and small animals, the pharmacist or veterinarian must suspend it in water, so that it can be administered orally with a medicine dropper. The label says to dispose of unused suspension after 14 days. It also points out that refrigeration is required. In the context of this chapter, what is implied in the latter two statements?
Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?

Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase, an enzyme present in some resistant bacteria. The mass of this enzyme in Staphylococcus aureus is 29.6 kDa. The amount of penicillin hydrolyzed in 1 minute in a 10 mL solution containing 10.9 g of purified penicillinase was measured as a function of the concentration of penicillin. Assume that the concentration of penicillin does not change appreciably during the assay. Note that kiloDalton is the unit for MW for biological molecules. A Dalton is another name for atomic mass unit. For example, a protein with a mass of 15 kDa means that the MW is 15,000 g/mol.Penicillin (M) Amount hydrolyzed (nanomoles)1 0.113 0.255 0.3410 0.4530 0.5850 0.611. Plot Vo versus [S] for these data.

The following reversible enzymatic reaction occurs in many areas of the body, but especially in red blood cells. The conversion of water and carbon dioxide into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions occurs through the action of an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase. Use the Law of Mass Action to predict which direction this equation will go under different circumstances. CO2 + H2O ↔ H+ + HCO3- Hyperventilating would increase the loss of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the blood. In what direction would the reaction above go in order to restore equilibrium? Left or right?
