Chapter 13, Problem 13.32P
13*32 Black-and-white photography is a commercial process that involves a phenol. Black-and-white film is coated with an emulsion containing silver bromide or silver iodide crystals that become activated by exposure to light. The activated silver ions then react with hydroquinone in the developing stage as shown in the following balanced equation.
All silver halide not activated by light is removed in the fixing process, and the result is a black image (a negative) left by the deposited metallic silver where the film had been struck by fight. In this

The substance to be analyzed is white, highly soluble in water salt. Addition of
barium chloride or silver nitrate (in presence of nitric acid) doesn't give any
precipitation. Reaction with zinc uranyl acetate leads to formation of yellow
crystals, which have tetrahedral geometry. Addition of antipyrin in acid medium
changes color to red.
What kind of substance is this?
NaNO3
BaSO3
LiCI
NaNO2
The research group has recently focused on identifying the chemical properties of fluorocarbons, such as CF4 and C2F4. These fluorocarbons display a very different reactivity compared to hydrocarbons.
Teflon (C2F4)n is a fluoropolymer. When Teflon is mixed with silica at high temperature, all solid decomposes into gases. Write down the reactions that can take place during the process and explain your reasoning.
Either sulfuric acid or bismuth(III) nitrate pentahydrate can catalyze this reaction.
What is an advantage to using sulfuric acid? What is an advantage of using the bismuth compound?

- A researcher reconstituted a vial of 750 mg Cefuroxime Sodium Powder for Injection with 6mL of sterile water for injection. The reconstituted solution was dark amber-colored solution. The package insert states that solution colors range from clear to yellow depending on concentration, diluent, and storage conditions. The researcher was then hesitant to give the patient the solution due to its unusual dark color. Five portions were taken from a batch of cefuroxime sodium. Prior to testing in the instrument, each part was subjected to one of the following conditions: Conditions Specifications Temperature Portion 1: 8°C ± 2°C Portion 2: 30°C ± 2°C Portion 3: 40°C ± 2°C Light Portion 4: Kept in the dark Portion 5: Exposed to direct sunlight 1.
