Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.4QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The transducer in smoke detector should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Transducers play a vital role in analysis process. The real physical world data can be converted into a measurable form with the help of these devices. Basically, transducer is a device which convert any form of signal into electrical signals or vice versa. They can either be used at input or output of a system. There are many factors which are considered while selecting a type of transducer to be used for a task. They are sensitivity, range, accuracy, precision, linearity, size and cost.

The student adds aqueous ammonia (NH3) to one test tube, aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCI) to the second tube, and nothing more to the third tube, but forgets to label the tubes. After this, one test tube contains a red solution, one an orange solution, and one a yellow solution. Note: This metal, M, would follow the same rules that we used for Cu(II), Ni(II), and Co(II).

- 31 – 33. An article in Scientific American pointed out that replacing a 75-watt incandescent bulb with an 18-watt compact fluorescent bulb would save about 75% in the cost of electricity. Electricity is generally priced per kilowatt-hour (kWh) and the rate is PhP 10/kW-h. Calculate how much money you would save over the life of one compact fluorescent bulb (about 10,000 h).
