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.

If the number of atoms of each element in the products equals the number of atoms of each element in the reactant the equation i
Misha Larkins [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another. Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

This also states that total number of atoms of each element on the reactant side must be equal to the total number of atoms of each element on product side.

From the above information, the correct answer is Option b.

What kind of seismic waves travel through the earth​
andriy [413]

The kind of seismic waves travel through the earth are Congressional longitudinal waves and shear transverse waves.

Explanation:

  • There are two kinds of seismic waves and they are the Congressional longitudinal waves and shear transverse waves.
  • They are called the P waves and S waves when they pass through the earth.
  • P waves are the primary because they are the fastest waves whereas S waves are the secondary since they are slower
  • P waves move as alternate compressions and dilations along the side of propagation
  • S waves move as alternate compression and transverse motion along the perpendicular side of propagation.

the density of carbon tetrachloride, CCl4, is 1.59 grams/ml. calculate the volume of 100.0 grams of CCl4
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

63 mL

Explanation:

Data given:

density of CCl₄ = 1.59 g/mL

mass of CCl₄ = 100.0 g

Volume = ?

Solution:

To calculate density formula will be used

        d = m/v

rearrange the above equation

         v = m/d . . . . . . (1)

where

d = density

m = mass

v = volume

put values in above formula 1

            v = 100.0 g / 1.59 g/mL

            v = 63 mL

so. the volume of CCl₄ = 63 mL
