Chapter 2, Problem 1DA
Data analysis If we call each step on the x-axis one volume of base, how many volumes of base must be added to change the pH from 4 to 6?
Expert Solution & Answer
Summary Introduction
To determine: The volumes of the base need to add on the x-axis to change the pH from 4 to 6.
Introduction: Buffer solution is an aqueous solution that contains a solution of a weak acid and connected base. All living cells and fluid present in the multicellular organism contain a neutral pH.
Explanation of Solution
The basicity of the solution depends upon the ion concentration of H+ ions and OH- ions. Every basic solution has a pH value above 7. The range of basic solution in pH scale lies above 7 till 14. A basic solution is required to neutralize the acid present in the solution that helps to increase the pH. Every step on the x-axis consisting of one volume of base. Therefore, the pH change from 4 to 6 on the x-axis is required two-volume of the base.

In order to establish the expiration date of perishable food, growth curve data must be collected. Once the microbial load is so high that it poses a hazard to human health, the food item is no longer considered safe (expired). Generally a load of x50,000
bacteria/gram is considered unsafe.
Your task is to determine the microbial growth curves for MicroYo, a new brand of yogurt. The growth is determined by sampling the yogurt and growing the bacterial isolates in broth culture which is then serially diluted by a total of x10,000 and inoculated onto
standard petri plates of nutrient agar. The following colony counts are measured:

It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
