Students use the periodic table to predict reactions between different elements and elemental bromine (Br2). An incomplete equation for the reaction between an element and Br2 is shown. Bromine atoms have 7 valence electrons.
_________ + Br2 --> __________
Based on the number of valence electrons of elements in a compound, which is an ionic compound that can form in a reaction between an element and Br2?

Question 4

Monica had a rough day teaching the kiddos. They just wouldn't stop talking... She gets home, plunks onto the sofa, and opens up a bottle of Smirnoff IceTM.
Smirnoff IceTM is 4.5% alcohol and she finishes two 24-oz bottles within 1 hour. If Monica is currently 140 pounds, what would Monica's BAC be?
_______ BAC
On average, alcohol is removed at a rate of 0.015 BAC per hour. How many hours (2 decimal places) would it take for Monica's body to finish metabolizing all of the alcohol she consumed?
_______ hours

Question 17
17.
The longer the total time required for the complete absorption of alcohol, the lower will be the peak alcohol concentration in the blood.
When a volatile chemical (alcohol) is dissolved in a liquid (blood) and is
brought to equilibrium with air (alveolar breath), there is a fixed ratio bet
ween the concentration of the volatile compound (alcohol) in air (alveolar
breath) and its concentration in the liquid (blood), and this ratio is constant
for a given temperature.
The temperature at which the breath leaves the mouth is normally 34°C.
At this temperature, the ratio of alcohol in the blood to alcohol in alveolar air is
approximately 2,100 to 1. In other words, 1 milliliter of blood contains nearly
the same amount of alcohol as 2,100 milliliters of alveolar breath. Henry’s law
thus becomes a basis for relating breath to blood-alcohol concentration.
