The normal range of the sodium electrolyte in the body is 134 to 145 mEq/L. The term mEq is dependent on the charge of the ion. Since sodium is a +1 ion, 134 mEq/L is the same as 134 mmol/L.
An ion that has a greater positive or negative charge; however, will have 1 mEq for each positive or negative charge of the ion for every 1 mmol. For example, for Ca+2, 2mEq/1mmol.
If the standard range of Magnesium in the body is 0.70 to 0.95 mmol/L, convert this value into mEq/L for the Mg2+ ion. (Use dimensional analysis to figure this out)
You need to prepare 500 ml PBS buffer, a solution commonly used in biological research. The buffer helps to maintain the pH, and the osmolarity, as well as ion concentrations of PBS buffer, match those of the human body. PBS buffer consists of the following components: 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 10 mM Na2HPO4, 1.8 mM KH2PO4. How would you prepare the buffer?
Which of the following combinations would be the best choice to buffer the pH of a solution at approximately 7?
