Exercises 75-76 involve dosages of the anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin, administered in liquid form. Refer to the appropriate entries in Table 9.8 on page 591 to convert given units to the unit indicated. Where necessary, round to two decimal places.
A physician orders 3 teaspoons daily of indomethacin in three equally divided doses.
a. How many milliliters of the drug should be administered daily?
b. How many cc of the drug should be administered daily?
c. How many fluid ounces of the drug should be administered daily?
d. How many fluid ounces of the drug should the patient receive in each divided dose?

- Question 3: A sealed flask at room temperature contains a mixture of neon (Ne) and nitrogen (N2) gases. Ne has a mass of 3.25 g and exerts a pressure of 48.2 torr. . N2 contributes a pressure of 142 torr. • What is the mass of the N2 in the flask? • Atomic mass of Ne = 20.1797 g/mol • Atomic mass of N = 14.0067 g/mol Solution: We will use the Ideal Gas Law to determine the number of moles of each gas and calculate the mass of N2. PV = nRT where: • P = total pressure • V volume of the flask (same for both gases) n = number of moles of gas • R 0.0821 L atm/mol K • T = Room temperature (assume 298 K) Since both gases are in the same flask, their partial pressures correspond to their mole fractions. Step 1: Convert Pressures to Atmospheres 48.2 PNe = 0.0634 atm 760 142 PN2 = = 0.1868 atm 760 Step 2: Determine Moles of Ne nNe = mass molar mass 3.25 nNe 20.1797 nne 0.1611 mol Step 3: Use Partial Pressure Ratio to Find narrow_forward"I have written solutions in text form, but I need experts to rewrite them in handwriting from A to Z, exactly as I have written, without any changes."arrow_forwardNo chatgpt pls will upvote Already got wrong chatgpt answerarrow_forward
