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

You collect 552 mL of argon gas at 23.0 C. What volume will the gas occupy at 46.0C if the pressure remains constant?
taurus [48]

Answer:

1027.9 mL

Explanation:

Formula P1 x V1 / T1 = P2 x V2 / T2

Fill in what you know

Pressure is constant so no need to put that in making the formula

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

Voulme 1= 950 mL

Volume 2= ?

Temperature 1 = 25 C

Temperature 2 = 50 C

Explanation:

Formula P1 x V1 / T1 = P2 x V2 / T2

Fill in what you know

Pressure is constant so no need to put that in making the formula

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

Voulme 1= 950 mL

Volume 2= ?

Temperature 1 = 25 C
