First, we convert the weight of the infant to kg. 25 lb x (1 kg / 2.21 lb) = 11.31 kg Then, we use the givens above for our dimensional analysis. (11.31 kg)(10 mg/1 kg)(5.0 mL/100 mg) = 5.655 mL Thus, the recommended amount in mL of the suspension should be 5.655 or approximately 5.7.
Barium chloride and lithium sulfate are mixed, barium sulfate and lithium chloride are formed. Barium sulfate is obtained as a white precipitate and lithium chloride as an aqueous solution.
