Answer:

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

Explanation:

Data provided:

Rate of dose = 39 mg every 30 min = (39/30) mg/min  = 1.3 mg/min

also,

125mg of methylprednisolone is present in every 2 mL

thus,

concentration = (125/2) mg/mL = 62.5 mg/mL

Now,

The flow rate is given as:

Flow rate = Rate / Concentration

on substituting the respective values, we get

Flow rate = (1.3 mg/min) / (62.5mg/mL)

or

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

What mass of sodium chloride contains 4.59 x 10 24 formula units?
shtirl [24]
The term formula units means molecules.

Then, what you are looking for is the mass in 4.59*10^24  molecules.

The procedure involves to convert the 4.59 * 10^24 molecules into moles and use the molar mass of the sodium chloride.

1) Number of moles = 4.59 * 10^24 molecules / (6.02 * 10^23 molecules/mol) = 7.62 mol

2) Molar mass of NaCl = 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 58.44 g/mol

3) mass of NaCl = molar mass *  number of moles = 58.44 g/mol * 7.62 mol = 445.31 g of NaCl

Answer: 445.31 g of NaCl.

Explain how impurities are selected for doping in group 14 semiconductors
aleksklad [387]

Impurities selection for doping in group 14 semiconductors is: based on their ability to add more holes and fewer electrons or to add more electrons and reduce the holes.

<h3>Meaning of Semiconductors</h3>

Semiconductors can be defined as any material that has the ability to exhibit some properties of a conductor and some properties of an insulator.

A semiconductor can be used as either a conductor or an insulator when worked upon.

In conclusion, Impurities selection for doping in group 14 semiconductors is: based on their ability to add more holes and fewer electrons or to add more electrons and reduce the holes.
