Why does calcium gluconate given after the fourth dose of blood transfussion?

correct me if im wrong... it's because each unit of blood contains citrate. it acts as a chelating agent and anti coagulant, thus cause hypocalcemia. another, it will prevent citrate toxicity because the liver metabolizes this slowly. each unit may contain about 3g of citrate. am i right?

How do i make iron citrate?

Although citric acid is a weak binder of iron, coordination is possible if enough of the citrate is available to push the equilibrium towards binding Fe(III). I would probably add 50:1 ratio of citrate:iron in water. So, if you start with 1 mol of iron (III), add 50 moles or more of citrate to assure that all the iron is chelated. In addition, it's preferable to add the citrate in its disodium form, although citric acid by itself should still bind to the iron. If you start with citric acid, you can add 2x moles of NaOH to form the disodium form of citrate. Always add the ligand first (i.e. the citrate) to water then add the iron. Adding the iron first may cause it to precipitate as iron hydroxide (rust) and will probably be unavailable for the citrate.

What is the use of calcium gluconate in blood transfusion?

Blood contains high levels of citrate. Calcium gluconate helps counteract or buffer the effect of the citrate which can include chelating, inability to coagulant or clot which can cause hypocalcemia, and citrate toxicity due to the lover's slow processing of citrate.

If solid sodium hydroxide were added to neutralize the HCl would this reverse the reaction and cause the sodium chloride to redissolve?

No, adding solid sodium hydroxide to neutralize hydrochloric acid (HCl) would not cause sodium chloride to redissolve. The reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid forms water and sodium chloride, which remains in its dissolved form. The addition of solid sodium hydroxide would simply further neutralize the acid and increase the concentration of the resulting sodium chloride solution.
