Determine whether or not the argument uses any deceptive statistics.

Consider the following argument: There are many arguments for the elimination or modification of current U. S. drug laws, but one of the most persuasive involves what negative effects drug laws are having on society in comparison with the effects of the drugs themselves. In the past ten years, most forms of drug use have dropped significantly, especially among teens. Despite this, non-violent drug offenders accounted for 21.1 percent of the federal prison population. First time drug offenders serve, on average, a sentence three months longer than kidnappers, nine months longer than burglars, and thirty-three months longer than sex abusers. In 1992, the average cost of keeping an inmate in either state or federal prison was about $20,000 per prisoner per year. The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world, with 455 prisoners per 100,000 population. It is maintaining these prisoners at great expense in an environment where they are unlikely to develop a socially constructive attitude. Perhaps it is time that we reconsider our attitudes toward those who choose to use drugs; failure to do so may cost society even more than it already has.
Determine whether or not the argument uses any deceptive statistics. Give your opinion on whether or not the argument has persuaded you. Explain why or why not.Determine the primary ways in which statistics or authority are used in your current position in developing persuasive arguments, and provide examples of such use.

Discuss working of two industrial heterogeneous catalysts with suitable mechanism in two separate processes.

Aim
To understand the fundamentals of electrochemistry and working of analytical instruments and its application in engineering problems,
Learning Outcomes
– Describe the basics of electrochemistry, ionic equilibria.
– Examine the nomenclature of hydrocarbons, isomerism, catalysis in industrial application. (AM1)
Tasks:
The following 2 tasks. Labelled diagrams should be drawn on any drawing software or hand drawn (and copy paste in report).
Task 1: (900 words)
Catalysts speed up the reaction by providing alternate path of lower activation energy. A heterogeneous catalyst is in a different phase to the reactants and products, and is often favored in industry, being easily separated from the products. Discuss working of two industrial heterogeneous catalysts with suitable mechanism in two separate processes. Answer should include related chemical reactions, necessary precautions, diagram and a discussion on how the catalyst suitable the chosen process.
Task 2: (700 words)
The Chlor-Alkali industry produces chlorine and sodium hydroxide through the electrolysis of the NaCl solution. But one of the problems is that the chlorine combines with the sodium hydroxide to form chlorate and chloride ions. This leads to the production of sodium chlorate, NaCIO, a component of household bleach. Construct a suitable design and provide technical discussion to overcome this technical issue.
