A biochemist carefully measures the molarity of salt in 56. mL of photobacterium cell growth medium to be 82. mM. Unfortunately, a careless graduate student forgets to cover the container of growth medium and a substantial amount of the solvent evaporates. The volume of the cell growth medium falls to 3.1 mL. Calculate the new molarity of salt in the photobacterium cell growth medium. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. mM

You are growing yeast cells in your lab. The Yeast Growth Medium contains 56 mM glucose (Mol. Weight 180 g/mol) and 20 mM HEPES (MW 238 g/mol). The yeasts only grow if the medium is at the exact pH=6.8. You have HEPES and glucose powder, water, hydrochloric acid (HCl) and Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), all the necessary equipment to prepare the 100 ml that you need. Calculate and explain how you make the Yeast Growth Medium:
