The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

Harrizon [31]
Answer is: 2,469 mL give to the child.
The mass m in kilograms (kg) is equal to the mass m in pounds (lb) times 0,45359237: m(child) = 72,6 · 0,045359237 = 32,93 kg.
m(Medrol) = 32,93 kg · 1,5 mg/kg.
m(Medrol) = 49,39 mg.
d(Medrol) = 20,0 mg/mL.
V(Medrol) = m(Medrol) ÷ d(Medrol).
V(Medrol) = 49,39 mg ÷ 20 mg/mL.
V(Medrol) = 2,469 mL.

Does the temperature of the solvent (water) affect the rate of dissolving?​
gregori [183]
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.
