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.

45.0 g of Ca(NO3)2 are used to create a 1.3 M solution. What is the volume of the solution
Stells [14]
As we know that Molarity is given as,

                                       M = moles / V 
Solving for V,
                                        V = moles / M ------------------(1)
Also, moles is equal to,
                                       moles = mass / M. mass -------------(2)
puting value of moles from eq. 2 into eq. 1,
                                       V = (mass / M.mass) / M
Putting values,
                                       V = (45 g / 164 g/mol) / 1.3 mol/dm³

                                       V = 0.21 dm³

what would be the effect on the melting point of a sample if it were not dried completely after filtering the recrystallized sam
jok3333 [9.3K]

The melting point of the sample if it is not dried completely after filtering the recrystallized product will have a broad range and will occur at lower range than the actual value.

What is melting point?

Melting point is the temperature at which the solid form of a given substance changes to the liquid form at atmospheric pressure. It is important because, by using the physical property of a substance the substance can be identified.

The sharp range melting point of the substance indicates the purity of the substance. If the sample is not dried completely after recrystallisation, the melting point will have a broad range.

Therefore, if the sample given is not dried completely, it will be impure and the decreases the melting point of the substance. So the actual melting point of the substance cannot be determined.

What are the solutions to the equation x2 + 4x + 5 = 0?​
dusya [7]

Answer:

-1, -4

Explanation:

x^2+4x+5=0

Factoring, you get:

(x+4)(x+1)=0

To find what x can be, you need to realize what could make this equation true. To set the left side equal to 0, either one of the terms in parentheses must be equal to 0. To do that, x must be the negative of the other term, so that they can cancel each other out. Therefore, x is -4 and -1. Hope this helps!
