Worksheet:
1. What is the concentration, in milligrams per milliliter, of a solution containing 2 mEq of potassium
chloride (KCI) per milliliter?
2. Calculate the amount of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate (MW = 247) in grams required to compound
200 capsules each containing 10 mEq magnesium sulfate. Round the answer to the nearest whole
number.
3. How many mEq of sodium are contained in a liter of a normal saline? Round to the nearest hundredth.
4. How many milliliters of a 10% magnesium chloride solution contains 30 mEq of magnesium ion?
Molecular weight of magnesium is 95.2. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
