- The amount of calcium in physiologic fluids can be determined by a complexometric titration with EDTA. In one such analysis, a 0.100-mL sample of blood serum was made basic by adding 2 drops of NaOH and titrated with 0.001 M EDTA, requiring 0.238 mL to reach the end point. Report the concentration of calcium in the sample as miligrams of Ca per 100 mL. (Ca = 40.078 amu).arrow_forwardThe 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)arrow_forwardCalculate the following concentration given thisarrow_forward
- Given that the relative molecular mass of potassium chloride (KCl) is 74.5513 g mol-1, calculate the concentration of potassium chloride solution which will be iso-osmotic with tears (305 mOsM). State your answer in both molar concentration (mol/L) and in percentage (g/100 mL).

Calculate the concentration of NaCl in this solution, in units of molarity. %3D Express the concentration in molarity to three significant figures. ? Marrow_forwardThe concentration of glucose in blood is approximately 90 mg/100 mL. What is the mass/volume percent concentration of glucose? What is the molarity of glucose?arrow_forward
- What would be the working stock concentration (in molarity) if you diluted 250 uL of a stock concentration of 10 uM in a total volume of 1 mL?arrow_forwardDextran is a polymeric carbohydrate produced by certain bacteria. It is used as a blood plasma substitute. An aqueous solution contains 0.582 g of dextran in 106 mL of solution at 21°C. It has an osmotic pressure of 1.47 mmHg. What is the average molecular mass of the dextran?arrow_forwardStearic acid is insoluble in water, and sodium stearate (a soap) is soluble. What causes the difference in solubility? Explain.arrow_forward
- Normal arterial pH is 7.35 to 7. 45. Both metabolic and respiratory alkalosis have pH more basic compare to the normal arterial pH. The difference is 0.5 units. What is pH value in alkalosis? Niemann-Pick type C disease is a progressive neurological disease; symptoms include unsteady walking with uncoordinated limb movements, slurred speech, a difficulty in swallowing, epilepsy and tremor. This condition is due to the abnormal functioning of a lysosome. State the normal functions performed by this organelle.arrow_forwardA concentrated lidocaine solution contains lidocaine 1 g/5 mL. How many milliliters of this injection should be used to prepare a 500 mL IV infusion containing 8 mg/mL of lidocaine in D5W?
