Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The main point of the passage regarding Frances Kelsey is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Thalidomide is a drug which is used as a sedative and anti-emetic for pregnant women suffering from morning sickness.
According to the study, the use of thalidomide by pregnant women can cause phocomelia, which is a kind of malformation of limbs occurring in new born babies.

A concentration cell consists of two Sn/Sn2+ half-cells. The cell has a potential of 0.10 V at 25 °C. What is the ratio of [Sn2+] (i.e., [Sn2+left-half] / [Sn2+right-half])?
Electrochemical cell potentials can be used to determine equilibrium constants that would be otherwise difficult to determine because concentrations are small. What is Κ for the following balanced reaction if E˚ = +0.0218 V?
3 Zn(s) + 2 Cr3+(aq) → 3 Zn2+(aq) + Cr(s) E˚ = +0.0218 V
Consider the following half-reactions:
Hg2+(aq) + 2e– → Hg(l) E°red = +0.854 V
Cu2+(aq) + 2e– → Cu(s)E°red = +0.337 V
Ni2+(aq) + 2e– → Ni(s) E°red = -0.250 V
Fe2+(aq) + 2e– → Fe(s) E°red = -0.440 V
Zn2+(aq) + 2e– → Zn(s) E°red = -0.763 V
What is the best oxidizing agent shown above (i.e., the substance that is most likely to be reduced)?
