(a)
Interpretation:
The elements from cerium to lutetium is metal or non-metal has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Metal:
A metal is a material that, when freshly prepared, polished, or fractured, has a shiny appearance. Metal has the capacity to conducts the electricity and heat. Metals are malleable or ductile.
Non-metal:
Non-metal is an element that mostly absences metallic character.
Transition metal element:
Transition metal elements are 10 smaller groups which is located in middle of the periodic table.
(b)
Interpretation:
The class of the element from cerium to lutetuim should be identified.

(c)
Interpretation:
The name of the sub shell that is filled should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Electronic configuration:
The electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule in atomic or molecular orbitals.
- (1) Electrons occupy in the lowest energy orbitals. The increasing order of orbital energy is s, p, d and f. The lowest energy orbital is 1s. The order of energy of the orbital for the for the first three period is given below,
1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, and 3p.
- (2) The orbital which is closer to the nucleus has lower energy, therefore the 2s is lower in energy than 3s. Accordingly 2s is lower in energy than 2p and 4s is lower in energy than 3d.
- (3) In general, the orbitals can hold maximum of two electrons, the two electrons must have opposite spin.
The subshell ordering by aufbau principle is given below, 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p, 8s, ...
Each shell contains only a fixed number of electrons. The first shell contains two electrons, the second shell contains eight (2 + 6) electrons, the third shell contains 18 (2 + 6 + 10), fourth shell contains (2 + 6 + 10 + 14 ) and so on.
Transition metal element:
Transition metal elements are 10 smaller groups which is located in middle of the periodic table.

- 3. (15 points) Living cells homogeneously distributed (immobilized) with an agarose gel require glucose to survive. An important aspect of the biochemical system design is the effective diffusion coefficient of glucose (A) into the cell- immobilized gel. Consider the experiment shows below where a slab of the cell-immobilized gel of 1.0cm thickness is placed within a well-mixed aqueous solution of glucose maintained at a concentration of 50 mmol/L. The glucose consumption within the cell-immobilized gel proceeds by a zero-order process given by R₁ = -0.05 mmol/(L min). The solubilities of glucose in both the water and the gel are the same; that is, the concentration of the glucose on the water side of the water-gel interface is equal to the concentration of the glucose on the gel side of the water gel interface. A syringe is mounted at the center of the gel carefully excises a tiny sample of the gel for glucose analysis.
