Shortly after a typical meal, your blood glucose will rise from its fasting level
of 4.4 mM to 6.6 mM.
(a) How many grams of glucose does this increase represent? (An average
adult male weighing 70 kg has a blood volume of about 5 L.)
Creatinine, C4H7N3O, is a by-product of muscle metabolism, and creatinine levels in the body are known to be a fairly reliable indicator of kidney function. The normal level of creatinine in the blood for adults is approximately 1.0 mg per deciliter (dL) of blood. If the density of blood is 1.025 g/mL, calculate the molarity of a normal creatinine level in a 10.0 mL blood sample.
