0.408 gram for 180-lb patient

Answer: 0.408 grams is to given for 180 lb patient.

Explanation:

Given : A intramuscular medication is given at 5.00 mg/kg of body weight.

That is for a body with weight of 1 kg , we have to give 5.00 mg of medication

Converting the mass in kg to pounds

1 kg = 2.20462 lb

Thus for a body with weight of 2.20462 lb , we have to give= 5.00 mg of medication

For body weight of 180 lb ,  we have to give =\frac{5.00}{2.20462}\times 180=408.23mg of medication

Also 1 mg = 0.001 grams

Thus 408.23mg=\frac{0.001}{1}\times 408.23=0.408grams

Thus for a body with weight of 2.20462 lb , we have to give 0.408 grams of medication.

Under which of the following sets of conditions would the most o2 (g) be dissolved in h2o(l)?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Oxygen will dissolve more in H2O at 5 atm and 20 °C than at 5 atm 80 °C

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Pressure = 5 atm

Temperature = 20 °C or 80 °C

Step 2:

At low pressure, a gas has a low solubility. Decreased pressure allows more gas molecules to be present in the air, with very little being dissolved in solution.  At high(er) pressure, a gas has a high solubility.

This means the higher the pressure the more the gas will dissolve. Since The pressure stays constant, it depends on the temperature.

The solubility of gases in liquids decreases with increasing temperature.

This means the gas will dissolve more with a lower temperature.

Oxygen will dissolve more in H2O at 5 atm and 20 °C than at 5 atm 80 °C

When 40 grams of ammonium nitrate explode 14 grams of nitrogen and 8 grams of oxygen form. How many grams of water form
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

18 grams of water

Explanation:

The Balance Chemical Reaction is as follow,

                     2 NH₄NO₃    →    2 N₂  +  O₂  +  4 H₂O

According to Equation,

                     160 g (2 moles) NH₄NO₃ produces  =  72 g (4 moles) of H₂O

So,

                     40 g of NH₄NO₃ will produce  =  X g of H₂O

Solving for X,

                     X =  (40 g × 72 g) ÷ 160 g

                     X  =  18 g of H₂O

Using the word bank explain why increasing the temperature increases the rate of reaction​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:Increasing the temperature increases reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.
