Question

Based on a grade 11 chemistry student, answer the following question based on the provided table:

Part B: Other Cases Emerge

Read Case File 3. Based on these new cases, it now seems clear that people are being poisoned by something in the Tylenol.

Fast-Acting Poisons

Whatever the poison is, it is very fast acting as victims collapsed within minutes of taking the pills. After some research, and based on your love of Agatha Christie novels, you find five common poisons that work quickly and can cause death within a few hours – aconite, coniine, cyanide, nicotine, strychnine.

Use the information contained in table 6 to determine the empirical formula, molecular formula, and fatal volume for the two poisons not completed in the table.
