The Nernst equation allows us to predict the cell potential for voltaic cells under conditions other than the standard conditions of 1M, 1 atm, 25°C. The effects of different temperatures and concentrations may be tracked in terms of the Gibbs energy change ΔG. This free energy change depends upon the temperature & concentrations according to ΔG = ΔG° + RTInQ where ΔG° is the free energy change under conditions and Q is the thermodynamic reaction quotient. The free energy change is related to the cell potential Ecell by ΔG= nFEcell
so for non-standard conditions
-nFEcell = -nFE°cell + RT InQ
or
Ecell = E°cell - RT/nF (InQ)
which is called Nernst equation.
Given:
Stock dose/concentration of 20% Acetylcysteine (200 mg/mL)
150 mg/kg dose of Acetylcysteine
Weight of the dog is 13.2 lb
First we must convert 13.2 lb to kg:
13.2 lb/(2.2kg/lb) = 6 kg
Then we must calculate the dose:
(150 mg/kg)(6kg) = 900 mg
Lastly, we must calculate the dose in liquid form to be administered:
(900 mg)/(200 mg/mL) = 4.5 mL
Therefore, 4.5 mL of 20% Acetylcysteine should be given.
That would be phosphorus. It’s electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^3
Of any substance? What about two powders such as 1/2 cup of white flour, then mixing 1/2 cup of salt together with the flour. This would then form a more coarse mixture being that the two particles differ in shape.
