Historically, toxicology testing has been focused on one chemical at a time, yet we are rarely expose to chemicals in isolation. Why do you think this approach to testing has been taken? What challenges may be involved in studying mixtures of chemicals?
4. Gasoline can be reasonably approximated as C9H20 with a density of 0.718 g/mL. Diesel can be reasonable approximated as C14H30 with a density of 0.763 g/mL. (Both gasoline and diesel are complicated mixtures. These formulas are something like weighted averages of the formulas of the different components, where the weighting is based on various quantifiable behaviors. That is, using these artificial formulas for gasoline and diesel allows one to calculate average properties that match what petroleum engineers might measure.) The enthalpy change from burning one mole of gasoline is -6160 kJ. The enthalpy change from burning one mole of diesel is -7940 kJ. Determine which fuel generates the biggest enthalpy change per gram burned, and which generates the biggest enthalpy change per mL burned.
Greenwashing is a major problem. Companies will say they are using practices that benefit the environment while really not taking any steps to do so. An example is Terracycle - a company that is supposedly able to recycle non-recyclable plastics and by-products - but which went over a year without collecting products from any of their customers. How can consumers navigate the labels to determine if products are actually sustainable.
