(a)
Interpretation: The minerals contain indium, the mining site and the process used to get pure indium should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Indium is silver grey in color. It is a highly luster metal with low melting point. It is almost never exist in Earth’s crust in pure form. It is exist as stray ions trapped in the base metal minerals crystals. It is essential in liquid crystal display. Its low melting point and high conductivity makes it important in electrical components and formation of alloys.
(b)
Interpretation: The environmental problems from mining indium should be explained.
Concept Introduction: Mining can have many environmental effects such as soil erosion, sinkholes, soil and surface/ground water pollution. The chemical released during the mining process also affects health of local population.

- Don't used hand raiting and don't used Ai solutionarrow_forwardWe learned four factors (ARIO) for comparing the relative acidity of compounds. When two of these factors are in competition, the order of priority is the order in which these factors were covered ("atom" being the most important factor and "orbital" being the least important). However, we also mentioned that there are exceptions to this order of priority. Compare the two compounds and identify the exception. OH PK-4.75 SH PK-10.6 5. "Resonance" is more important than "atom" because the conjugate base of first compound is more stable than the second. "Atom" is more important than "resonance" because the conjugate base of first compound is more stable than the second. "Resonance" is more important than "atom" because the conjugate base of second compound is more stable than the first. "Atom" is more important than "resonance" because the conjugate base of second compound is more stable than the first.arrow_forwardThe relative fitnesses of three genotypes are WA/A= 1.0, WA/a = 0.7, and Wa/a = 0.3.

Your analysis gives values of 98.6, 98.4, 97.2, 94.6, and 96.2. Do your results differ from the expected results at the 95% confidence interval?arrow_forwardThe percentage of an additive in gasoline was measured six times with the following results: 0.13, 0.12, 0.16, 0.17, 0.20, and 0.11%.

- Explain why this data led Rayleigh to look for and to discover Ar.arrow_forward5) Confidence interval. Berglund and Wichardt investigated the quantitative determination of Cr in high-alloy steels using a potentiometric titration of Cr(VI). Before the titration, samples of the steel were dissolved in acid and the chromium oxidized to Cr(VI) using peroxydisulfate. Shown here are the results (as %w/w Cr) for the analysis of a reference steel. 16.968, 16.922, 16.840, 16.883, 16.887, 16.977, 16.857, 16.728 Calculate the mean, the standard deviation, and the 95% confidence interval about the mean.
