Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Tube 2 has a total dilution of 1:50

Explanation:

We have a 2 ml serum sample added to a 18 mL phosphate buffered saline sample in tube 1. This means now in tube 1 there is 20 mL.

We have a 1:10 (= 2:20) dilution here.

10 ml of this 1:10 diluted tube 1 is taken and added to a 40 mL of PBS in tube 2.

Now we have 50 mL in tube 2.

This is a 10:50 (= 1:5) dilution.

The total dilution is 10x5 = 50

So the total ditultion has a rate 1:50

Tube 2 has a total dilution of 1:50

What is chemsity and what does it have to do with science
MatroZZZ [7]
Chemistry is the study of the composition of matter and the ways in which matter interacts, combines, and changes under certain conditions.  Although not as fundamental as physics, chemistry is a very basic and broad science.  It helps us explain bodily interactions and natural process (biochemistry), it helps us to manufacture new medications, and true chemistry research will always follow the scientific method.

What is the final pressure (expressed in atm) of a 3.05 L system initially at 724 mm Hg and 298 K, that is compressed to a final
maksim [4K]

Hey there!:

V1 = 3.05 L

V2 = 3.00 L

P1 = 724 mmHg

P2 = to be calculated

T1 = 298 K

T2 = 273 K

Therefore:

P1*V1  / T1  = P2*V2 / T2

P2 = ( P1*V1 / T1  )   * T2 / V2

P2 = 724 * 3.05 * 273 / 298 * 3.00

P2 = 602838.6 / 894

P2 = 674.31 mmHg

1 atm ----------- 760 mmHg

atm ------------- 674.31 mHg

= 674.31 * 1 / 760

= 0.887 atm

Hope this helps!

What are the limitations of the van der Waals equation.​
jeka57 [31]
Limitations of Van der waal's equation. (i) The value of 'b' is not constant but varies with pressure and temperature. (ii) The value of is not equal to 3b, but actually it is equal to, in some case; and in other cases 2b. (iii) The value of is not equal to but it is usually more than 3 for most of the gases.

Where is most of an atom's atomic mass?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume. The diameter of an atom is on the order of 10−10 m, whereas the diameter of the nucleus is roughly 10−15 m—about 100,000 times smaller.
