Infection control is the discipline concerned with preventing nosocomial or healthcare-associated infection, a practical (rather than academic) sub-discipline of epidemiology. It is an essential, though often underrecognized and undersupported, part of the infrastructure of health care. Infection control and hospital epidemiology are akin to public health practice, practiced within the confines of a particular health-care delivery system rather than directed at society as a whole. Anti-infective agents include antibiotics, antibacterials, antifungals, antivirals and antiprotozoals.[1]

Infection control addresses factors related to the spread of infections within the healthcare setting (whether patient-to-patient, from patients to staff and from staff to patients, or among-staff), including prevention (via hand hygiene/hand washing, cleaning/disinfection/sterilization, vaccination, surveillance), monitoring/investigation of demonstrated or suspected spread of infection within a particular health-care setting (surveillance and outbreak investigation), and management (interruption of outbreaks). It is on this basis that the common title being adopted within health care is "infection prevention and control." (got from google

Find the pH of 8.4x10^-8 M HCl. Report the answer to the hundredths place.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

pH = 7.08

Explanation:

HCl ---------> H^+ + Cl^-

It's an acid, we are using this formula

pH = -log [H]^+

H^+ = 8.4 * 10^-8

pH = - log [8.4 * 10^-8]

It can also be solved as

-log 8.4-(-8log 10)

-0.924-(-8×1)

-0.924+8

7.076

To the nearest hundredth

pH = 7.08

A 1.04L sample of gas of 759 mm Hg pressure is expanded
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

P2 = 352 mm Hg (rounded to three significant figures)

Explanation:

PV = nRT

where P is the pressure,

V is the volume,

n is the moles of gas,

R is the gas constant,

and T is the temperature.

We must relate this equation to a sample of gas at two different volumes however. Looking at the equation, we can relate the change in volume by:

P1V1 = P2V2

where P1 is the initial pressure,

V1 is the initial volume,

P2 is the final pressure,

and V2 is the final volume.

Looking at this relationship, pressure and volume have an indirect relationship; when one goes up, the other goes down. In that case, we can use this equation to solve for the new pressure.

P1V1 = P2V2

(759 mm Hg)(1.04 L) = P2(2.24 L)

P2 = 352 mm Hg (rounded to three significant figures)
