The safe dosage of the IV antibiotic ceftriaxone for children weighing more than 2.0 kg is 60. mg per kilogram of body weight. Suppose a pediatric nurse has available 1.5 L of a ceftriaxone solution with a concentration of 0.025 g/mL. How can she calculate the volume of this solution that she should administer to a child weighing 31. kg? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression. Also, be sure your answer includes all the correct unit symbols. solution needed =||

You want to compare a patient's measured calcium ion concentration to the normal calcium ion concentration in blood serum. The only range you can find is 4.5 - 5.5 mEq/L, but the blood results show a concentration of 0.22 mmol/dL. Convert the measured calcium ion concentration from the blood results to mEq/L (to one decimal place). What are the units?
scaling up Solutions Sometimes we know the concentration of a solute but we need to make a larger volume of the solution. Example: An IV saline solution is based on 0.9% NaCI = 0.9g/100mL (dL). To make 1L of the same concentration (0.9%), how many grams of NaCl would we need? Hint: first convert mL or dL to L. Next, to get from our original volume of 0.1 L to our desired volume of 1L, we need to multiply by a factor of 10. If we want to keep the concentration of this solution the same (0.9%) we will also need to multiply the amount of solute by the same factor of 10. Molar Ratios and Chemical Equations The concept of the mole is useful in chemical reactions. Molecules react in molar ratios which are expressed in equations. Neutralization of an Acid Example: HCI + NaOH → NaCI + H2O This equation says that 1 mole of acid is neutralized by 1 mole of base to produce 1 mole of salt and 1 mole of water. Since a mole is the MW in grams, then you can calculate how much base you need to to…
