The average dosage of oxcarbazepine for an epileptic child between the ages of 4 and 16 is 9.00 mgmg per 1 kgkg of body weight (

9.00 mg/kgmg/kg). Calculate how many milliliters of oxcarbazepine a child who weighs 42.9 pounds should be prescribed considering the medication is served as a suspension of 60.0 mg/mLmg/mL. Keep in mind that 1 pound is equivalent to 0.453 kilograms.​

Answer:

The answer to your question is 3 ml

Explanation:

Data

Dosage = 9.0 mg/ kg

Child's weight = 42.9 pounds

Suspension = 60 mg/ml

milliliters = ?

Process

1.- Convert the weight to kg

                         1 pound ------------------- 0.453 kg

                     42.9 pounds ---------------  x

                           x = (42.9 x 0.453) / 1

                           x = 19.43 kg

2.- Calculate the milligrams the child needs

                         1 kg of weight ------------ 9 mg

                       19.43 kg ----------------------  x

                            x = (19.43 x 9) / 1

                            x = 174.87 mg of oxcarbazepine

3.- Calculate the milliliters needed

                          60 mg of suspension ------------- 1 milliliters

                        174.87 mg                     --------------  x

                                 x = (174.87 x 1) / 60

                                 x = 2.9 ml ≈ 3 ml

Which element is oxidized in the reaction below? fe(co)5 (l) + 2hi (g) fe(co)4i2 (s) + co (g) + h2 (g)?
DanielleElmas [232]
Oxidation state of I is (-1) and for CO it is zero. Let's assume that the oxidation state of Fe in Fe(CO)₄I₂<span> (s) is x. For whole compound, the charge is zero.

Sum of oxidation numbers in all elements = Charge of the compound.

Here we have 1Fe , 4CO and 2I
hence we can find the oxidation state as;
 x + 4*0 + 2*(-1) = 0
 x + 0 - 2            = 0
                   x     = +2
Hence the oxidation state of Fe in product </span>Fe(CO)₄I₂ (s) is +2.

Same as we can find the oxidation state (y) of Fe in Fe(CO)₅(s).
y + 5*0 = 0
   y        = 0

Since oxidation state of Fe increased from 0 to +2, the oxidized element is Fe in the given reaction.
