If 0.5 ml of a mumps virus vaccine contains 5000 units of antigen, how many units would be present in each milliliter if the 0.5

5000 units of antigens are present in 0.5 mL of the mumps virus vaccine.

Volume of the vaccine after dilution with water = 2 mL

0.5 mL has 5000 units antigen. So when 0.5 mL was diluted to 2 mL, the final vaccine after dilution would contain 5000 units of antigen.

Units of antigen present in 1 mL vaccine sample

= 1 mL *\frac{5000 units}{2 mL} = 2500 units

Therefore, 2500 units of the antigen will be present in each milliliter, if 0.5 mL of the vaccine is diluted to 2 mL with water for injection.

Calcium carbide ( CaC2) reacts with water to produce acetylene (C2H2) as shown in the unbalanced reaction below: CaC2(s)+H2O(g)-
MaRussiya [10]
Answer:
46.3g H2O

Explanation:
start by balancing it: CaC2(s) + 2H2O(g) -> Ca(OH)2(s) + C2H2(g)

then use factor label method to solve

82.4g CaC2 x (1 mol CaC2/64.10g CaC2) x (2 mol H2O/1 mol CaC2) x (18.016g H2O/1 mol H20) = 46.3g H2O

What is an experimental control
attashe74 [19]

The experimental control is the standard used as a comparison for the experimental groups.


For example, you may be trying to find out how different types of disinfectants affect bacterial growth.  The control group would receive <em>no</em> disinfectant whereas the experimental groups would be the ones on which the disinfectants were tested.


Hope this makes sense!

Why is Dalton credited with proposing the first atomic theory if Democritus was talking about atoms almost 2,200 years earlier?
german
Democritus *suggested* the existence of the atom, that everything was made up of tiny particles, but wasn't really able to get more specific than that. Dalton also theorized that everything was made up of indivisible particles, but went further basing his theory on actual scientific principles, such as the Law of Conservation of Mass and the Law of Constant Composition. He also said that atoms weren't created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, just rearranged.  There's more to it than that, but basically, Dalton's theory was based more on science while Democritus' theory was too general to be useful in chemical situations.
