A 5 year old male is sent for a hematology consult due to excessive nose bleeds. It is noted that he has a lot of gingival bleeding and bruises easily. Platelet aggregation shows the following: Wave 1: ADP.                   Wave 2: Collagen           Wave 3: Epinephrine.    Wave 4: Ristocetin The MLS ran one more aggregation study and found a normal response when the patient’s platelets were mixed with a combination of ristocetin and reagent-based vWF. What is this patient’s Disorder of primary hemostasis?

Consider the following reaction and data presented below   SO2Cl2  –>  SO2  +  Cl2   Reaction Time(s)                                       [SO2Cl2] (M) 0                                                                           0.220 31.11                                                                  0.0584 38.93                                                                   0.0416 57.80                                                                    0.0184 Determine whether the reaction is zero, first or second order. Determine k. Determine the half life if [SO2Cl2] is 0.350M.
