Answer: 30 meq

Explanation:

We know that 1 gallon = <u>3.785 Litres</u>

1 litre = <u>1000 milliliters</u>

1 gallon = <u>3785 ml</u>

<u>Concentration = weight/volume </u>

= 565/3785

= 0.149 g/ml

= 149 mg/ml

Multiplying with 15 ml we get

= 149*15 = <u>2235 mg</u>

<u>The atomic weights of:</u>

Potassium (K) = 39

Chlorine (Cl) = 35.5

Finding the equivalent weight of Kcl = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5

So, 1 equivalent of KCl is 74.5 g

= 2235 mg * 1 meq/74.5 mg = 30 meq K+

Therefore, there are 30 milliequivalents of K in 15 ml of this solution

ss7ja [257]

Pulmonary embolism occurring in up to 3 in every 1,000 births is a major cause of death.

One of the pulmonary arteries in your lungs can get blocked, causing a pulmonary embolism. The majority of the time, blood clots from deep leg veins or, rarely, veins in other parts of the body that go to the lungs cause pulmonary embolism (deep vein thrombosis).

Pulmonary embolism, which occurs when blood clots obstruct the flow of blood to the lungs, can be fatal. But the danger of dying is significantly decreased with quick treatment. By taking precautions to avoid leg blood clots, you can lessen your risk of developing pulmonary embolism.

In a protein supplement that contains 154 total kcalories, 11 grams of protein, and 17 grams of carbohydrate, how many kcalories
Llana [10]

Answer:

In this protein supplement there are 11 grams of protein which contribute with 44 kcalories. Therefore, the percentage of kcalories coming from protein in this particular supplement is 28,5 %.

Explanation:

Each gram of protein contributes 4 kcal (calories), so 11 grams of proteins x 4 kcal/gram = 44 kcal.

The total amount of kcalories is 154, so 44 kcal / 154 kcal x 100 = 28,5%.

When it comes to protein supplements is very important to realise how many proteins are being consumed and how many total calories this supplement has, for the simple reason that it might be not help to reach the protein goal for a particular individual, but instead, it might be providing too many calories that come from non-protein compounds.
