Answer:

0.00508368 grams

Explanation:

From the question we are told that the daily allowance for infants and children is  8.00 × 10⁻⁶ mole of copper per kiogram of body weight.

Since this value is given in moles, we have to convert it to mass

Molar mass of a compound = mass in grams / no of moles of the compound.

So, Molar mass of copper = 63.546

No of moles of copper per kg = 8.00 × 10⁻⁶ mole

63.546 = mass/ 8.00 × 10⁻⁶ mole

Cross multiply

Mass of copper per kg body weight = 8.00 × 10⁻⁶ × 63.546

= 0.000508368 grams

Hence, the daily allowance of copper required for infants or children per kg of weight = 0.000508368 grams.

For a 10 kg infant this is calculated as:

If 1 kg per weight of an Infant = 0.000508368grams

10 kg =

We cross multiply

10 kg × 0.000508368 grams

= 0.00508368 grams.

Therefore, the mass of copper required per day for a 10 kg child is 0.00508368 grams

A nurse demonstrates an understanding of the risk factor for hypothermia when asking an older adult therapeutic hypothermia assessment question.

<h3>What is therapeutic hypothermia?</h3>

Remedial hypothermia is a system used to cool an individual's body to a temperature that is lower than ordinary. The method is finished after a heart failure (when the heart stops) that occurs beyond a medical services setting. The oblivious individual is cooled in the medical clinic after their breathing and heartbeat start once more. The absence of blood stream can make enduring harm the cerebrum. The individual might not be able to recover cognizance. Bringing down the internal heat level immediately after heart failure can decrease harm to the cerebrum. That raises the possibilities that the individual will recuperate. At the point when a patient goes through remedial hypothermia, it is to some degree frightening to feel how cold s/he can be to the touch. This is ordinary and is short-term. The patient's temperature will be diminished to around 91°F (33°C), roughly 7° F (4°C) lower than typical.
