Memorandum To: Dr. Robert I. Grossman‚ CEO NYU Langone Date: November 7‚ 2012 Re: Restructuring Health Care Payment and Improving Quality The U.S. devotes a much larger share of its national income to health care than any other country in the world. However‚ the gross over-spending has not yielded the healthiest population (OECD Health data‚ 2009). Our economy is continually growing at a lesser rate than healthcare spending. The need to restrain this unsustainable growth in health care costs

Reaction on Climate Change The Philippines has been considered as a highly vulnerable to current (natural disasters)‚ as well as future climate-related risks due to its geographical location and physical characteristics. It lies along the Western Pacific Basin (a generator of climatic conditions such as monsoons‚ thunderstorms‚ Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone‚ typhoons‚ among others) making it a path of an average of 20 tropical cyclones annually‚ nine of which makes a landfall.

A federal law was passed barring entry to all convicts and prostitutes. Before then‚ immigration was scarcely controlled. Over centuries different laws were passed in attempt to get the situation under control. Once the Immigration Law passed‚ legal immigration

Determining activation energy (Ea) of a reaction © KCl http://hk.geocities.com/fatherofchemistry Objective To determine the activation energy for the reduction of peroxodisulphate(VI) ions. S2O82-‚ by iodide ions I-‚ using a ’clock’ reaction. Principle The equation for reduction of S2O82- by I- is: S2O82- + 2I- → 2SO42- + I2 The formation of iodine is ’monitored’ by small & known amount of thiosulphate ions‚ S2O32-:

Experiment 5B: Ketone Reduction Objective: Using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent‚ the ketone 4-tert-butylcyclohexane is reduced to its corresponding alcohol. It is purified through extraction techniques to give the cis and trans diasteromer products. Procedure: The procedure was followed as outlined in Mayo’s book for Experiment 5B with the following modifications: 1. Reagents and Equipment – The reaction will be on a scale of 2X what is described in the text. 2. Reagents and Equipment

HOW ARE REDOX REACTIONS DIFFERENT? Redox is the term used to label reactions in which the acceptance of an electron (reduction) by a material is matched with the donation of an electron (oxidation). A large number of the reactions already mentioned in the Reactions chapter are redox reactions. Synthesis reactions are also redox reactions if there is an exchange of electrons to make an ionic bond. If chlorine gas is added to sodium metal to make sodium chloride‚ the sodium has donated an electron
