On Greg's last visit to his doctor, he complained of feelingtired. His doctor orders a blood test for iron. Sandra, theregistered nurse, does a venipuncture and withdraws 8.0 mLof blood. About 70% of the iron in the body is used to formhemoglobin, which is a protein in the red blood cells thatcarries oxygen to the cells of the body. About 30% is stored inferritin, bone marrow, and the liver. When the iron level is low,a person may have fatigue and decreased immunity.The normal range for serum iron in men is 80 to 160mcg/dL. Greg's iron test showed a blood serum iron level of42 mcg/dL, which indicates that Greg has iron deficiencyanemia. His doctor orders an iron supplement to be takentwice daily (b.i.d.).One tablet of the iron supplement contains 110 mg of iron.TronEach tablet contains 110 mg of iron, which is given foriron supplementation.You may want to reference (Pages 49 - 52) Section 2.7 whilecompleting this problem.

Concept explainers

States of Matter

The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).

Chemical Reactions and Equations

When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.

Question

On Greg's last visit to his doctor, he complained of feeling
tired. His doctor orders a blood test for iron. Sandra, the
registered nurse, does a venipuncture and withdraws 8.0 mL
of blood. About 70% of the iron in the body is used to form
hemoglobin, which is a protein in the red blood cells that
carries oxygen to the cells of the body. About 30% is stored in
ferritin, bone marrow, and the liver. When the iron level is low,
a person may have fatigue and decreased immunity.
The normal range for serum iron in men is 80 to 160
mcg/dL. Greg's iron test showed a blood serum iron level of
42 mcg/dL, which indicates that Greg has iron deficiency
anemia. His doctor orders an iron supplement to be taken
twice daily (b.i.d.).
One tablet of the iron supplement contains 110 mg of iron.
Tron
Each tablet contains 110 mg of iron, which is given for
iron supplementation.
You may want to reference (Pages 49 - 52) Section 2.7 while
completing this problem.

Enter an equality for one tablet of the iron supplement.
Express the mass in milligrams to two significant figures.
