5g blood clots from two different patients had the volumes : 20ml(patient a) and 15ml(patient b). calculate the densities of the two blood . which of the patients had a stronger blood clotting mechanism

The patient B has strong blood clotting mechanism because its mass per unit volume is greater then patient A.

Density of patient A blood clot = 0.25 g/mL

Density of patient B blood clot = 0.33 g/mL

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

Mass of blood clot = 5 g

Volume of patient A blood clot = 20 mL

Volume of patient B blood clot = 15 mL

Densities = ?

Solution:

d (A) = m / v

d (A) = 5 g / 20 mL

d (A) = 0.25 g/mL

For patient B:

d (B) = m / v

d (B) = 5 g / 15 mL

d (B) = 0.3 g / mL

The patient B has strong blood clotting mechanism because its mass per unit volume is greater then patient A.

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
