What is the difference in concentration between a pH of 7 and 12?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The pH of a solution is simply a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions,  

H

+

, which you'll often see referred to as hydronium cations,  

H

3

O

+

.

More specifically, the pH of the solution is calculated using the negative log base  

10

of the concentration of the hydronium cations.

Now, we use the negative log base  

10

because the concentration of hydronium cations is usually significantly smaller than

The recommended dose for acetaminophen is 10.0 to 15.0mg/kg of body weight for adults using this guideline calculate the maximum
Oxana [17]

Answer:

1422mg of acetaminophen

Explanation:

The maximum dose of acetaminophen is 15.0 mg of acetaminophen per kg of person.

To know the maximum single dosage of the person we need to convert the 209lb to kg (Using 1kg = 2.2046lb):

209lb * (1kg / 2.2046lb) = 94.8

The person weighs 94.8kg and the maximum single dosage for the person is:

94.8kg * (15.0mg acetaminophen / kg) =

1422mg of acetaminophen
