Chapter 4, Problem 1MIO
1. In Section 4.1 in the description of matter, the following
terms were introduced: elements, atoms, electrons, protons, neutrons, nucleus, molecules, mixtures, and solutions.
Create a concept map explaining the composition of matter by appropriately organizing and linking these concepts to form meaningful propositions. After completing your concept map, compare your map with that of a classmate or the instructor. Are they same? Should they be? Discuss the similarities and differences that you find between the maps.

Suppose you have a culture of bacteria, where the density of each bacterium is 2.0 g/cm³. a. If each bacterium is 5µm × 5µm × 20µm in size, find the number of bacteria if their total mass is 30 grams. Recall that 1µm = 10−6 meters. b. Suppose that you learn that the sizes of bacteria range from 4µm × 5µm × 15µmto5µm × 6µm × 25µm. What is the range of the possible number of bacteria making up the total mass of 30 grams?
Q3. Péclet number - We've seen the Péclet number Pé
vl
as a useful metric to
D
determine if stirring (Pé > 1) is more efficient than diffusion (Pé < 1) for mixing
solutions. "Stirring" here can designate any process which applies a force on the molecules,
resulting in a velocity v.
a) Show that the Péclet number, like the Reynolds number, is unitless.
Let's think about why scale (f) matters for mixing. 2-DNA, a DNA polymer containing
48,502 base pairs, has a diffusion coefficient of D
field of 1 V/m, we can expect 1-DNA to reach a terminal velocity of 30 nm/s.
6.4 × 10-13m²s¬1. Under an electric
b) Find the Péclet number for a system of dimension of e = 10 cm. This corresponds
to the scale of most benchtop instruments used to manipulate or separate
biomolecules.
c) Find the Péclet number for a system of dimension of e
to the scale over which most cellular processes occur.
d) Find the scale l for which diffusion is just as efficient as electric field for displacing

2. Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P of the
gas is inversely proportional to the volume V of the gas. (That is: at a constant temperature, the equation P = c.
1
holds, for some constant c.)
V
(Note: The standard units of volume are cubic meters, m³, and the standard units of pressure are Pascals, Pa, or
kiloPascals, kPa.)

(a) Suppose that the pressure of a sample of air that occupies 0.106 m³ at 25°C is 50 kPa. Write V as a
function of P.
(b) Calculate
dV
dP
when P = 50 kPa. What is the meaning of the derivative? What are its units?
