Answer:
946.35mL (to 2 decimal places)
Explanation:
Use the formula
C1V1 = C2V2
where C1 is the concentration of the undiluted medication = 15mg/mL
V1 is the volume of the undiluted medication = 1 pint = 473.176mL (convert pint to mL)
C2 is the concentration that the diluted medication should have = 5mg/mL
V2 is the volume of the diluted medication with syrup = ??
C1V1 = C2V2
15mg/mL x 473.176mL = 5mg/mL x V2
<u>15mg/mL x 473.176mL = V2</u>
5mg/mL
1419.528mL = V2
V2 = 1419.528mL (expected volume of medication + syrup)
Therefore, amount of non-medicated flavored syrup base to be added = 1419.528mL - 473.176mL
= 946.352mL (2 pints)
