One day, you receive a radio communication from an alien intelligence. Although you cannot understand their language, they have included some photos from an ILove Lucy episode. The photos allow you to determine that it is the episode in which Lucy makes a television commercial on Vitameatavegamin. This episode first aired on CBS on May 5, 1952. Before running to your supervisor to tell him the news, you quickly determine how far away in light-years the alien civilization is.arrow_forward
- 5 g of anhydrous strontium nitrate is added to a beaker and exposed to the air. After several hours the beaker and the contents are weighed. It was found that the mass increased by 1.70 g. Assume that the increase in mass is totally due to the absorption of water by the anhydrous compound.

The compound is so intensely coloured that even a small amount of it makes for a black or dark blue suspension. Given that this antidote has never before been administered at the hospital, none of the doctors or nurses have experience with it. There is one very old bottle of Fe-(CN)18 pills in the medicine store-room, but the label is worn and the units are in the old, archaic British Apothecaries' system which has unusual units like drachms, scruples, grains, and mites: 453.6 grams (g) = 1 pound (Ib) = 12 ounces (3) = 96 drachms (3) = 288 scruples (3) = 5760 grains (gr) = 115200 mites (m)arrow_forwardState the similarities between solar and chemical forms of generating electricity.arrow_forward
