How many milliequivalents of sodium chloride are contained with 3 L of normal saline?

Mathematics
1 answer:
AVprozaik [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

466mEq

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know the concentration of NaCl in a normal saline solution, this is by definition 0.9%, meaning we have 0.9g of NaCl per 100ml of solution, we want to know how much NaCl we have in 3L (3000ml):

3000ml*\frac{0.9g}{100ml}=27g=27000mg

So, we have 27000mg in 3L of normal saline solution.

Now, acording to our milliequivalent (mEq) equation (mEq=\frac{mg}{pE}) where pE is de molecular mass of NaCl divided by their charges, in this case 1:

pE= \frac{23+35}{1}=\frac{58}{1} = 58

Finally we substitute in the mEq formula:

mEq=\frac{mg}{pE}=\frac{27000}{58}=466mEq

I hope you find this information useful! Good luck!

Why is it incorrect
Bond [772]
Keeping in mind that, an absolute value, is in effect a piece-wise function, so is a duplet, so |whatever here|   is really two siblings, the positive and negative siblings  +(whatever here) and -(whatever here), thus

\bf \cfrac{|3v-1|}{5}\ge 4\implies |3v-1|\ge 20\implies &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;+(3v-1)\ge 20\\&#10;-(3v-1)\ge 20&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;+(3v-1)\ge 20\implies 3v-1\ge 20\implies 3v\ge 21\implies v\ge \cfrac{21}{3}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{v\ge 7}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf -(3v-1)\ge 20\implies -3v+1\ge 20\implies -3v\ge 19&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\textit{negative division, the sign changes}}{v\le \cfrac{19}{-3}}\implies \boxed{v\le -\cfrac{19}{3}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;7\le v\le -\cfrac{19}{3}
