**Calculate the Anion Gap: Is it in the Normal Range?**Given values:- Sodium (Na): 132 mEq/L- Chloride (Cl): 98 mEq/L- Bicarbonate (HCO₃): 22 mEq/LOptions:- ○ 12 mEq/L, Yes- ○ 34 mEq/L, Yes- ○ 12 mEq/L, No- ○ 34 mEq/L, No**Explanation:**To calculate the anion gap, use the formula:\[ \text{Anion Gap} = \text{Na} - (\text{Cl} + \text{HCO}_3) \]Insert the given values:\[ \text{Anion Gap} = 132 - (98 + 22) = 12 \, \text{mEq/L} \]A normal anion gap typically ranges from 8 to 16 mEq/L. Therefore, 12 mEq/L is within the normal range.**Correct Answer:** 12 mEq/L, Yes

The anion gap measures acid-base balance using the concentration of anions, which are not measured. The normal range of an anion gap is from 3 to 10, but the value varies with individual and laboratory methods.To find an anion gap as follows, Concentration of Na+ = 132 meq/L Concentration of Cl- = 98 meq/L Concentration of HCO3- = 22 meq/L Substituting the values in an anion gap expression, Anion gap = Na+ - Cl- + HCO3-= 132 meq/L - 98+22 meq/LAnion gap= 12 meq/L Therefore, the value of anion gap is 12 meq/L. Therefore, the value of anion gap is 12 meq/L and it is not in normal range.. The correct option is 12 meq/L, No.
