Homeopathic Remedy Concentrations

Homeopathic Remedy Concentrations
Have you ever heard of homeopathic remedies? It’s an alternative medicine, the premise behind
homeopathic remedies is that drugs are heavily diluted and at these extremely diluted levels the drugs will
activate their “vital energy” and that by increasing the dilution the potency of the remedy will be
increased. Watch the video below for an entertaining explanation of Homeopathic remedies by the
Amazing James Randi.
http://www.tinyurl.com/Math141HomeopathVideo1
Arsenic is used in the production of some Homeopathic remedies. An Arsenic sample is initially
collected and then goes through the dilution process discussed in Video1 to create what is called
“Arsenicum Album”. In this project we will examine this process.
Before moving onto the rest of this project we need to learn (or review) a little about Chemistry.
A ‘mole’ is an important concept in Chemistry. A mole is term used like a dozen. For example a dozen
eggs is 12 eggs. However a mole of eggs is much more, a mole of eggs is 6.023×1022 eggs. That’s a lot
of eggs. Moles are used in Chemistry because everyday objects have so many atoms inside them.
Suppose a 2.00 gram sample of Arsenic is ready to produce into Arsenic Album. Arsenic has a
molecular mass of 74.9 grams per mole. What this means is one mole of Arsenic would weigh 74.9
grams. Below is a calculation of how many atoms of Arsenic are in a 2.00 gram sample.

Or for x grams…

Or alternatively you can use the algebraic formula:
21 N x   8.04 10
Where N is the number of molecules and x is the number of grams. Both formulas work and you
can use either one for this project.
If you carry out the calculation above and cancel all the units you should arrive at 1.61×1022
molecules in the initial 2.00 gram sample. Homeopathic medicine has a few different ways to describe
how it is diluted. For example if the sample is diluted by a factor of 10 once it will read ‘1X’ on the label.
If the sample is diluted by a factor of 10 twice it will read ‘2X’ on the label. Additionally if the sample is
diluted by a factor of 100 once it will read ‘1C’ on the label. If the sample is diluted by a factor of 100
twice it will read ‘2C’ on the label.
For example, if a Homeopathic remedy is made from a 2.00 gram sample and it is diluted to the
1X level it will contain 0.200 grams (divide by 10). If a Homeopathic remedy is diluted to the 2X level, it
will contain 0.0200 grams (divide by 10 twice). Likewise, if it is diluted to the 1C level, it will contain
0.0200 grams (divide by 100). If it is diluted to the 2C level it will contain 0.000200 grams (divide by
100 twice).
One more lesson from Chemistry. Atoms are like people, we cannot divide them into smaller
pieces. For example, if someone told you a classroom of 30 people was to be divided into three groups,
how many people would be in each group? The answer is simple 30 divided by 3 is 10, there would be
ten people in each group. Likewise if 30 atoms are divided into three groups, there would be ten atoms
per group. However, what would happen if someone told you we were to divide a classroom of 30 people
into 60 groups? The arithmetic would say 0.5 people per group. Or what if someone said divide the
classroom of 30 people into 10,000 groups. The arithmetic would say 0.003 people per group. We know
this is impossible. If we divide 30 people into 10,000 groups not every group would have a person. The
same is true with atoms, by mixing chemicals we cannot have less than one atom. Keep this in mind
when working on this project.
1) If an initial 2.00 gram sample of Arsenic is given the following dilutions. How many atoms of
Arsenic are in each dilution?
2) Which contains more Arsenic, a sample diluted to 7X or a sample diluted to 8X?
Dilution Grams of Arsenic Atoms of Arsenic remaining
5X
12X
30X
10C
200C
3) A lethal dose of Arsenic for an 80 kg person is 1.21 grams. If a 2.00 gram sample of
Arsenicum Album is diluted to the 12X level, is it a safe dose to consume?
4) How many of these pills would you need to consume to reach the lethal dose?
5) At what dilution will there likely be just one atom of Arsenic remaining? Answer using both
X and C dilution methods.
6) Go to the store (Trader Joes, Whole Foods, and the Central Co-op have a wide variety to
choose from, ask the information desk where to find Homeopathic remedies) and find a
homeopathic remedy for sale that contains Arsenicum Album. You do not have to purchase your
selected remedy, you can just read the label in the store if you like.
a) What brand did you choose? What does the label say it heals?
b) What is the concentration listed on the package?
c) How many molecules of Arsenic are contained in one pill?

Kent Airlines

case study
Kent Airlines are considering adding a newly discovered tropical island to their list of destinations. The island is 3,000 miles away in mid-Atlantic. The islanders
have a potent drink called ‘OROS’ which they think will go down well in European markets and consequently are building a new international airport to expand the drinks
and holiday business. The name of the island is Atlantis.
A group of eight managers has been gathered to decide whether the destination is viable, what type of aircraft to use and what profits might be expected.
You have 30 minutes to discuss the issue before the Marketing Director arrives to hear you put your case to him.
If you decide to go ahead then:
What sort of customers would you try to attract?
What ‘message’ would you try to put across to them? Design a poster or slogan (15 words maximum) to do this.
How would you publicise the destination?
How would you deal with competitors (other airlines)?
The team is:
FUTURES AUDIT MANAGER
MARKET RESEARCHER
PRICING MANAGER MARKET
CARGO MANAGER
ENGINEERING MANAGER
LOGISTICS MANAGER
PLANNING MANAGER
SCHEDULING MANAGER

CARGO MANAGER
We could probably make £10,000 profit per trip using a 747 for the transport of “OROS” and £8,000 using a Tristar in addition to passenger income.
ENGINEERING MANAGER
We would need to station one overseas engineer permanently on Atlantis. We would also need to have spare parts such as tyres and engine components available there. We
have a 747 available for a Thursday flight only and no other days, or a Tristar Series 200 available for a Saturday flight.
LOGISTICS MANAGER
The costs of fuel, engineering, food for passengers, salaries, loading and unloading and refueling etc. would be £80,000 for a 747 and £65,000 for a Tristar.
FUTURES AUDIT MANAGER
The politics of island seem stable. The island will get enough money from selling “OROS” to pay for the building of the airport and hotels.
RESEARCHER
The island has an excellent climate and good beaches, but there is a lack of nightlife at present. There is great interest from both leisure and business customers in
going to the island. A Saturday departure would give us sufficient demand for us to use a Boeing 747, but departures on other days would generate a much lower demand
and make the Boeing unprofitable to use.
PRICING MANAGER
We would need to put on flights with special cheap rate tourist fares as well as the standard business fare, but using these we could probably generate £90,000 of
income per trip using a 747 or £72,000 using a Tristar
MARKETING PLANNING MANAGER
This can be a profitable route looked at in both the short term and the long term.
SCHEDULING MANAGER
The flight could depart at 21.00 hours on Saturday if an aircraft is available: this would be convenient for passengers and would also fit in with loading, catering
and engineering staff.

What are some of the strategies that firms engage in to create value?

What are some of the strategies that firms engage in to create value?

Evaluating the benefit an opportunity can provide is complex. When measuring an economic benefit, you must look at the real return, the nominal return, and the overall
value. In many cases, a project might generate a negative return in the short term but may be of value in the long term. You may take on a project for its business,
knowing that the project is a losing proposition but will compensate for this loss by bringing in a new project later that will generate a positive return, or future
value. This assignment will illustrate this concept. Firms need to distinguish between value creation and the returns they obtain from their investments.
Tasks:
Locate an article from the Internet or the Argosy University online library resources that deals with firms distinguishing between value creation and the returns they
obtain from their investments. You can consult sources such as the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Bloomberg Markets, the Economist, US News and World Report,
and other publications for conducting this research.
On the basis of the selected article, address the following questions:
What are some of the strategies that firms engage in to create value?
What is the difference between adding value in the value chain and creating returns for shareholders?
Why does adding value to the firm and creating returns for shareholders in the short run and long run matter?
Write your initial response in 300–500 words. Your response should be thorough and address all components of the discussion question in detail, include citations of
all sources, where needed, according to the APA Style, and demonstrate accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation
