2200 mg of antibiotic

Explanation:

Given that 40 mg of antibiotic/kg of the bodyweight is given.

If patient is 55 kg then  the dose of antibiotic will be

if 40/1000000 is done then we can get antibiotic in kg/kg of the weight

= 0.00004 kg of antibiotic per kg

0.00004*55 ( to know how much 55 kg person will require)

= 0.0022 kg

This 0.0022 value will be converted to mg

0.0022*10^6

= 2200 mg of antibiotic will be given to a 55kg patient.

What is similar about the atomic structure of the copper isotopes?
jasenka [17]
All copper atoms have atomic number 29: all their nuclei contain 29 protons. But they also contain uncharged particles called neutrons. ... The two different kinds of atom are called isotopes of copper. The neutron has a mass very similar to that of the proton, so the two isotopes differ in mass.

NEED SOME CHEM HELP
zloy xaker [14]
Hello!

The substances, ordered according to their dissolving time in water, are the following

Sugar Cubes > Granulated Sugar > Powdered Sugar

The difference between these substances is the degree of order. According to collision theory, for a substance to be dissolved, successful collisions between solvent molecules and solute molecules need to happen. as molecules are more ordered, successful collisions are less likely to happen, because atoms are fixed into a crystalline structure.

When the molecule is less ordered, successful collisions are more likely to occur, as the atoms can be impacted from different sides and aren't fixed into a given position. 

As the degree of order increases, the dissolving time in water will be higher too, as more time would be required for successful collisions to happen. The most ordered substance is sugar cubes, followed by granulated sugar and powdered sugar, and that order is the same as the order for dissolving time. 

Have a nice day!
