1)The average lethal dose of Valium is 1.52 mg/kg of body weight. Estimate how many grams of Valium would be lethal for a 200.-l

b woman. Show all your calculations. (1lb = 453.6 g)
2) A patient in hospital is receiving the antibiotic amoxcillin IV at the rate of 50. mL/h. The IV contains 1.5 g of the antibiotic in 1000. mL. (IV stands for intravenous). Calculate the mg/min of the drip. Show all your calculations

Answer:

1. 0.138g of valium would be lethel in the woman

2. 125mg/min is the drip of the patient

Explanation:

1. In a body, an amount of Valium > 1.52mg / kg of body weight would be lethal.

A person that weighs 200lb requires:

200<u>lb</u> × (453.6<u>g</u> / <u>1lb</u>) × (1kg / 1000<u>g</u>) = <em>90.72kg (Weight of the woman in kg)</em>

90.72kg × (1.52mg / kg) =

137.9mg ≡

<h3>0.138g of valium would be lethel in the woman</h3>

2. The IV contains 1.5g = 1500mg/mL.

If the patient is receiving 5.0mL/h, its rate in mg/h is:

5.0<u>mL</u>/h × (1500mg/<u>mL</u>) = 7500mg/h

Now as 1h = 60min:

7500mg/<u>h</u> × (1<u>h</u> / 60min) =

<h3>125mg/min is the drip of the patient</h3>

What are the electrons for calcium
IRINA_888 [86]
The traditional calcium atom has twenty protons and twenty electrons making it neutral.


The calcium in the pic is a calcium ion so the number of protons and electrons are not equivalent.


Since it's 2+ that means the ion is positively charged and for that to happen electrons are away.

So 20-2=18

There are 18 electrons

A student is instructed to make 1 L of a 2.0 M solution of CaCl2 using dry salt. How should he do this?
Pachacha [2.7K]
<span>The student should follow following steps to make 1 L of </span>2.0 M CaCl₂.<span>
<span>
1. First he should calculate the number of moles of 2.0 M CaCl</span></span>₂ in 1 L solution.<span>

</span>Molarity of the solution = 2.0 M<span>
Volume of solution which should be prepared = 1 L

Molarity = number of moles / volume of the solution

Hence, number of moles in 1 L = 2 mol

2. Find out the mass of dry CaCl</span>₂ in 2 moles.<span>

moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of CaCl₂ = 2 mol</span><span>
Molar mass of CaCl₂ = </span><span>110.98 g/mol

Hence, mass of CaCl</span>₂ = 2 mol x <span>110.98 g/mol
                                     = 221.96 g

3. Weigh the mass accurately 

4. Then take a cleaned and dry1 L volumetric flask and place a funnel top of it. Then carefully add the salt into the volumetric flask and finally wash the funnel and watch glass with de-ionized water. That water also should be added into the volumetric flask.

5. Then add some de-ionized water into the volumetric flask and swirl well until all salt are dissolved.

<span>6. Then top up to mark of the volumetric flask carefully. 
</span>
</span>
7. As the final step prepared solution should be labelled.

What is the mass percentage of carbon in 5.000 G of sucrose
Crank
17) 8.4 / 20 x 100

18) 20 . 0.5150

19) 6,50% because (as you said) the law of definite proportions states that regardless of the amount, a compound is always composed of the same elements in the same proportion by mass
