1.Exercise 4) A fair coin is tossed. If it lands heads, a fair four-sided die
is thrown (with values 2,3,4,7). If

2,3,4,7). If it lands tails, a fair six-sided die is
thrown (with values 3,4,5,6,7,9). Regardless of which die is used, Alice
eats n grains of rice, where n is the largest prime factor of the die result
(for example, the largest prime factor of 9 is 3).
(a) What is the conditional probability that the coin lands heads, given
that Alice eats three grains of rice?
(b) Suppose that the entire experiment is conducted twice on the following day (starting with a new coin toss on the second run-through).
What is the conditional probability that the coin lands heads on both
run-throughs, given that Alice eats a total of five grains of rice during the two run-throughs?
(Do not count the two grains from part (a) in part (b); we assume
two brand new experiments, each with a new coin toss. Start your
solution by defining a suitable partition of the sample space. Please
use an appropriate notation and/or justification in words, for each
value that you give as part of your solution.)
Exercise 5) Alice and Bob throw an unfair coin repeatedly, with probability 2/5 of landing heads. Alice starts with £2 and Bob starts with £3 .
Each time the unfair coin lands heads, Alice gives Bob £1 . Each time
the unfair coin lands tails, Bob gives Alice £1 . The game ends when one
player has £5 .
(a) Draw a labelled Markov chain describing the problem, and write
down a transition matrix P. Write down the communication classes,
and classify them as either recurrent or transient.
(b) Using the transition matrix, calculate the probability that Alice loses
all of her money in exactly four tosses of the unfair coin.
(c) Calculate the (total) probability that Alice loses all of her money
(before Bob loses all of his).
(d) Calculate the expected (mean) number of tosses of the unfair coin,
for the game to end.

c) Calculate the mass of water given off by the sample of hydrated cobalt (II) chloride. [T1]
Moles of Products:
a) Calculate the moles of anhydrous cobalt (II) chloride remaining in the crucible. [T1]
b) Calculate the moles of water released from the hydrate. {T1]
4. Mole Ratio
a) Create an experimental mole ratio between the b) and a). [T1]
5. Formula of Hydrate: State the chemical formula you have determined for this hydrate.
Round the formula to the closest whole number value for x. [T1]
Discussion/Conclusion Questions: [T6]
Based on the chemical formula of the hydrate, calculate the percentage composition (percent by mass) of the hydrated cobalt (II) chloride. Remember to determine the percentage of each element (Co, Cl, H, and O). [T2]
A possible source of systematic error in this experiment is insufficient heating. Suppose that the hydrate was not completely converted to the anhydrous form. Describe how this would affect: the calculated percent by mass of water and the experimental molecular formula (i.e. would x be higher, lower or the same).
Suppose a student spilled some of the hydrated cobalt (II) chloride. Describe how this would affect the calculated percent by mass of water (would it be higher, lower or the same) and the experimental chemical formula of the hydrate. [T2]

7.I have a research project and need help, this is the data set description:
Health researchers have identified a rise in

identified a rise in contacting STIs (sexually transmitted infections) among young adults and are interested in understanding why. The researchers measured several variables related to condom use including: likelihood of using condoms in the future, previous use of condoms, perceived ability for self-control in sexual relationships, and perceived risk for contracting STIs.
Method
This study is looking to understand why there has been a rise in sexually transmitted infections. Participants were asked to answer 4 different questions and the results were analyzed.
Participants: Participants include 100 men and women ages ranging from 18-38. The mean age in this experiment is 24 years old and there is an equal amount of men and women.
Name of Independent Variable(s): Provide a description of all independent (or grouping) variables, including their levels. Each variable should be described separately and the name of each new variable should be indented and underlined.
Name of Dependent Variable: Provide a description of the dependent variable, including how it was operationalized.
Following the description of all your variables you should clearly state (in a sentence) the research question you intend to investigate. Next, you should say something along the lines of, “This research has the following hypotheses:
Ha: State the alternate hypothesis in BOTH conceptual and statistical form.
H0: State the null hypothesis in BOTH conceptual and statistical form
Also I need to know what analysis to complete in spss

8.I am given the following scenario:
The process of interference is assumed to be responsible for much of forgetfulness in human
...
uch of forgetfulness in human memory. The processing of new information interferes with old memories. One demonstration of interference examines the process of forgetting while subjects are asleep versus while they are awake. Because there should be less interference during sleep, there also should be less forgetting. The following data are from an experiment examining six groups of participants. All participants were given a group of words to remember. Then half of the participants went to sleep, and the others stayed awake (factor A). Within both the asleep and awake groups, one third of the participants were tested after 2 hours, one third after 4 hours, and one third after 8 hours (factor B). The experimenter recorded the number of words correctly recalled.
We were given a bunch of SPSS post hoc output tables (attached). We need to draw conclusions (APA statements) from the post hoc and simple effects. I do not understand what information I am looking for.

Question 8 [short Text answer]
Marked out of 15.0
Using either your own cells with beads A or B, or the online images of the same, calculate a phagocytosis index for each treatment. Give the numbers of cells counted, numbers of beads etc and the final PI numbers as mentioned in the practical handout.

Beads A are clean beads , whereas beads B were pre-coated in surface layer of mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG). What differences might you expect (whether your experiment worked or not) upon exposing the mouse RAW 264.7 macrophages cells to these different beads. (do not give a mechanistic reason for it here, just what you might expect to happen)
