You need to prepare 500 ml PBS buffer, a solution commonly used in biological research. The buffer helps to maintain the pH, and the osmolarity, as well as ion concentrations of PBS buffer, match those of the human body. PBS buffer consists of the following components: 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 10 mM Na2HPO4, 1.8 mM KH2PO4. How would you prepare the buffer?
