...Human Relations in Management Latasha Smith Everest University To ensure acceptance of the new policy, the first thing Marcy should have done was communicated with the employees. She should have explained to the employees why they will be working on Saturdays and allow them to voice their opinions. Anytime change occurs there is going to be resistant usually out of fear, Marcy must understand this and take the time to listen to and try to eliminate those fears. Another step Marcy could have taken was to introduce the employees to the change gradually instead of springing it on them suddenly. I would have announced the change to the employee upon hearing about it but would have asked for a few people to volunteer on Saturday before the change was in effect. This way they could get a feel of how it would be to work on Saturdays, sure some may still be resistant but some may see that it’s not all bad. Marcy can deal with resistance to the new policy by being open and honest. Let the employees know how you feel about the change and why the change is good for the company. She could also try getting those resistant to the change involved by asking for their ideas and suggestions and trying to incorporate those ideas. This may make them feel better about the change if they feel like they have a part or even a say in the change. Another way is providing some flexibility, some employees are not available every Saturday for various reasons such as no babysitter, kid’s sports events...

...Assignment 2 Why is it not possible to accurately weigh and prepare the solution of NaOH? Solid NaOH has the property of absorbing water from the air so it is not possible to accurately weigh NaOH. Sodium hydroxide is unsuitable as a primary standard because of this property. NaOH in solid form absorbs moisture from the air and reacts with Carbon dioxide from the air, so NaOh cannot be weighed in air. Why potassium hydrogen phthalate can be used for titration in such case? Potassium hydrogen Phthalate(KHP) is a solid acid that is stable in a high state of purity and is unaffected by air it does not absorb moisture from the air like NaOH. KHP can also be used as a buffering agent in a combination with NaOH,it cannot be used as a buffer for decarboxylation the KHP and mop up the conjunction groups. State clearly the technique used in order to standardize the solution of NaOH? The standardizing of NaOH is done by titration What are primary standards? List the important properties of primary standards and give two examples. primary standard should fulfill the following requirements: 1) It should be100.00% pure, although 0.01-0.02% impurity is tolerable. 2) It should be stable to drying temperatures, and it should be stable indefinitely at room temperature. The primary standard is always dried before weighing. 3) It should have a high formula weight. A high formula weight will reduce experimental error since a relatively large amount of it will have...
