A GEL is a semisolid preparation that contains very small solid particles that are suspended in a liquid. A gel always contains an agent (e.g., agarose) that provides stiffness to the preparation.

A gel is a semisolid preparation that contains a gelling agent which provides stiffness to the preparation.

The gelling agent can be, for example, agarose (this gelling agent is used to prepare gels in electrophoresis).

In an agarose gel, agarose molecules are organized into three-dimensional (3D) structures similar to pores, which allow the passage of DNA fragments during electrophoresis.

What is the difference between acute and chronic radiation poisoning

tatiyna

Acute radiation can be healed by developing cells (white blood cells) in the body. During Chronic radiation immense amount of energy is released into your body causing division and break down of cells which can cause cancer and internal bleeding and cannot be cured depending on the amount released.

What is the mass of arsenic that is contained in a 50.0 g sample if the concentration is 5 ppm?

faltersainse [42]

Answer: The mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg

Explanation:

ppm is the amount of solute (in milligrams) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppm}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^6$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Concentration of arsenic = 5 ppm

Mass of sample = 50 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$5=\frac{\text{Mass of arsenic}}{50g}\times 10^6\\\\\text{Mass of arsenic}=\frac{5\times 50}{10^6}=0.00025g=0.25mg$

Conversion factor used: 1 g = 1000 mg

Hence, the mass of arsenic found in the sample is 0.25 mg
