Chapter 22, Problem 57AP
The LD50 value for ethyl alcohol given orally to rats is 10.3 g/kg. (a) What volume in milliliters of 100 proof vodka (50% v/v ethanol) would be likely to kill a typical 395-g rat? (b) Assuming that the rat’s mass is 67% water, what would its blood alcohol level be, in milligrams per milliliter? (Density of 100 proof vodka is 0.92 g/mL and the density of pure ethanol is 0.79 g/mL.)

A drink sold in a health food store contains 0.50% (w/v) of vitamin C. What volume would you have to ingest to obtain 1,000. mg of vitamin C?
Ethanol is metabolized in most people at a constant rate of about 120mg per hour per kg body weight, regardless of its concentration. If a 70kg person were at twice the legal limit (160mg/100ml), how long would it take for their blood alcohol level to fall below the legal limit?
What volume of solution (100ug/ml) will be administered to a rat weighing 150g, if the required dosage is 100mg/kg?
