Answer:

C. potassium oxalate for plato / edmentum

Explanation:

I took notes in the class and my notes say -

To prevent blood from clotting, toxicologists add anticoagulants to the blood sample. Anticoagulants such as potassium oxalate (30 mg/mL) is preferred over heparin or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) because both heparin and EDTA interfere with the detection of certain chemicals, such as calcium, in the blood. If the blood is suspected of carbon monoxide poisoning, a layer of liquid paraffin is added over the blood sample. This layer prevents exposure to atmospheric oxygen.

Answer:

For the Venn Diagram

1 - definite shape (E)

2 - definite volume (B)

3 - definite mass (A)

4 - takes the shape of the container (F)

5 - indefinite volume (D)

For the questions

1 - A - definite mass

2 - B - definite volume

3 - F - takes the shape of a container

4 - E - definite shape

5 - D - Indefinite volume

Explanation:

Definite - Specific

Indefinite - cant be determined

Remember (this is probably the most important note)

ALL MATTER HAS MASS!

A solid is the only state of matter that has a specific (definite) shape

Liquids and gases do not have specific shapes but they can take the shape of containers. Examples would be a glass of water or even just a water bottle full of air

Gas has an indefinite volume. As you can see in the image below gas molecules looser than liquid and solid molecules therefore it does not have a specific volume.

Liquids and solids have definite volumes as they can be easily measured
