Question

A dose of medication was prescribed to be 350 microliters. Which of the following expresses that volume in centiliters, cL? (1 x 10-6 L = 1 microliters)
3.5 x 10-3 cL

3.5 x 105 cL

0.35 cL

3.5 x 10-2 cL

Answer 1

Answer:

0.035 cL

Explanation:

Given that,

A dose of medication was prescribed to be 350 microliters.

1 microliters = 10⁻⁶ L

350 microliters = 350 × 10⁻⁶ L

Also,

1 Liter = 100 centiliter

350 × 10⁻⁶ L = 350 × 10⁻⁶ × 100

= 0.035 cL

Hence, the required volume is 0.035 cL.
