b, When blood is donated, sodium oxalate solution is used to precipitate Ca2+, which triggers clotting. A 114.0−mL sample of blood contains 9.70 × 10−5 g Ca2+/mL. A technologist treats the sample with 100.0 mL of 0.1550 M Na2C2O4. Calculate [Ca2+] after the treatment. (CaC2O4 · H2O Ksp = 2.30 ×10−9) Enter your answer in scientific notation.

Problem 4 Sodium is the primary cation in extracellular fluids (ECF) in humans. These fluids, such as blood plasma and ECF in other tissues, bathe cells and carry out transport functions (e.g. delivering nutrients and removing waste products). Although the system for maintaining optimal salt and water balance in the body is a complex one, one of the primary ways in which the human body keeps track of loss of body water is through osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus, which respond...
