A 28-kg child can consume a maximum of 23 children's acetaminophen tablets in an 8-h period without exceeding the safety-limit m

aximum allowable dose. Given that each children's tablet contains 80 mg of acetaminophen, determine the maximum allowable dose in mg per pound of body weight for one day. (a) 80 mg/lb (b) 90 mg/lb (c) 430 mg/lb (d) 720 mg/lb (e) 3.7 mg/lb

Answer:

(b)90mg/lb

Explanation:

The child can consume a maximum of 23 tablets with 80mg of acetaminophen, the total acetaminophen ingest is:

23*80=1840mg

This value is for 8 hours, 8 hours is 1/3 of one day. This means that the dose that can be consumed in 24 hours is 3 times 1840mg.

1840*3=5520mg

To obtain the maximum allowable dose in mg per pound of body weight, divide this last value by the weight of the child in pounds.

Conversion of units: 28Kg(\frac{2.20lb}{1Kg} )=61.6lb

\frac{5520}{61.6} =89.61\approx90mg/lb

Consider the reaction pathway graph below.
Alex17521 [72]
Hello!

The reaction that the graph represents is A. Exothermic because Hrxn=-167 kJ

To calculate Hrxn we apply the following equation:

Hrxn=Hproducts-Hreagents=-625kJ-(-458kJ)=-167kJ

Looking at the graph, and at the result of the calculations, we can see that the enthalpy of the products is lower than the enthalpy of the reagents, because the sign is negative. That means that the reaction releases energy in the form of heat and that the reaction is exothermic.

Have a nice day!
