To find literature values of properties of compounds, the internet has become an important alternative to handbooks. The internet contains compilations of MSDS (material safety data sheets) that must accompany shipments of all chemicals. These safety sheets give physical properties of the compounds as well as toxicological and safety information and sometimes uses. To locate sites that contain MSDS
compilations and other information, six of the best sites are:
http://www.chemexper.com/
http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/
http://chem.sis.nlm.nih.gov/chemidplus/chemidlite.jsp
http://www.chemspider.com/SimpleSearch.aspx

Ethylene glycol is usually the primary ingredient in commercial antifreeze products for cars. It is mixed with the water in a radiator because: |
|
|
|
The mixture has a lower freezing point than water. |
|
|
|
It is a better refrigerant than water. |
|
|
|
The mixture has a higher boiling point than water. |

MSDS often have toxicogical data that includes LD50 values. The LD50 value represents the number of mg/kg (usual units) of body weight that will be lethal to 50% of the population of the animals tested. For instance, the oral LD50 values for rats for the relatively nontoxic sodium chloride and the extremely toxic sodium cyanide are 3000 and 6.4 mg/kg respectively. From the sites listed in #21, find the oral-rat LD50 in mg/kg for aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). |

Using the answer to #24, it is possible to get a very approximate value for the amount that could kill half the populations of humans by
multiplying the value by a typical human weight of 65 kg. This assumes that rats are good models for humans which is often not the case. Making this assumption, what is the LD50 value for a 65 kg humans for aspirin. |

The average cup of coffee contains about 100 mg of
caffeine. How many cups of coffee could potentially be lethal to half of the drinkers (assume a 65 kg human and that the LD50 value for rats applies to humans and that 2 significant figures can be used)? |
|

Recognizing that the answer to #28 depends on many assumptions and has a large margin of error, is the very sad and unfortunate story reported at
http://the-tech.mit.edu/V118/N56/shorts.56n.html
and/or
http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/caffeine/references/media/1998_missouri_1.shtml
surprising? |
|
|
|
Yes. Because the difference of the values is much larger than the margin of error. |
|
|
|
No. Considering the assumptions especially using the value for a rat for humans, the equivalent of 250 cups is fairly close to the calculated value of 120 cups. |
