Question

Kim Chemist returned from a professional meeting with an idea for a kinetics study that might be performed using a radioactive sulfur isotope, S-32. Sulfuric acid would be the reactant to supply the isotope. Kim carried out a SciFinder substance search in hopes of finding references for sulfuric acid containing S-32. Select the search strategy that Kim used to quickly find sulfuric acid containing S-32. Enter "H2S04" in a Substance Identifier search. Enter "H204S" in a Molecular Formula search Enter "sulfuric acid" in a Molecular Formula search. Enter "sulfuric acid" in a Substance Identifier search

Explanation / Answer

9. For a quick search of sulfuric acid S-32, Kim should,

d. enter "sulfuric acid" in a substance identifier search

This would ensure all the items in Scifinder be found and shortlisted according to the term "sulfuric acid" in the text instead of H2SO4 which may appear as in reagent section and/or scheme and would increase the search results with all possibility. Another method is to add additional terms in the search box as in the advanced search option provided in the Scifinder software which would give even more narrow and accurate results.
