Total lung capacity of a typical adult is approximately 5.0 L. Approximately 20% of the air is oxygen. At sea level and at an average body temperature of 37°C, how many moles of oxygen do the lungs contain at the end of an inhalation?
You are evaluating two biodegradable polymers, Polymer A and Polymer B, for material to release
hormonal birth control. The hormone drug is attached to the polymer backbone and drug is released
as the polymer degrades. You collect the following data on drug released from the polymer every 5
days over a 30-day study. State the mechanism by which Polymer A and Polymer B degrades and
calculate the rate constant, k, of degradation for Polymer A and Polymer B to 2 significant digits.

You read in a popular diet blog that the author claims you can lose up to half a pound of body fat per week if, instead of drinking 1.9 liters (i.e., 1.9 kilograms) of water every day, you can eat the same amount of water in the form of ice. The reasoning is that your body must first melt the ice and then bring the ice water up to the body temperature of 37°C, which is a process that requires a significant amount of energy at the expense of “burned” body fat. Thankfully, you just finished discussing heat and phase changes in your physics class, so you can calculate exactly how much energy is expended. The specific heat and latent heat of fusion for water are 4.186 × 103 J/(kg⋅°C) and 3.34×105 J/kg, respectively
a) How many kilocalories do you expend when you eat 1.9 kg of ice at 0°C? Note that 1 kcal = 4186 J.
b) Assuming the metabolism of one pound of body fat produces 3500 kcal of energy, how many pounds of body fat could you lose in a week just by eating 1.9 kilograms of ice every…
