A 63 kg patient is in need of intravenous iron supplementation. He was ordered to receive a single intravenous 7 mg/kg dose of iron (III) sulfate (ferric sulfate - Fe2(SO4)3 - MW=399.88 g/mol). Iron (III) sulfate was prepared as a stabilized aqueous solution for this patient by dissolving 775 mg of stabilized iron sulfate salt in water to produce 15 mL of solution. How many milliequivalents of iron (Fe 3+) will the patient receive as a single dose? Assume the salt completely disassociates in solution. Round the answer to two decimal places.
