Lambanog contains methanol (CH3OH; density of 0.792 g/mL), in which at high dosage, is lethal. If an average Filipino weighs 55.0 kg and drinks 2.00 L of lambanog, what is the highest % v/v concentration of methanol in lambanog for it to be safe if minimum lethal dose is around 0.300 g/kg of body weight?

Specifications for lactated Ringers solution, which is used for intravenous (IV) injections, are as follows to reach 100. mL of solution: 285315 mg Na+ 14.117.3 mg K+ 4.9Q.O mg Ca2+ 368408 mg Cl 231261 mg lactate, C3H5O3 a. Specify the amount of NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 2H2O, and NaC3H5O3 needed to prepare 100. mL lactated Ringers solution. b. What is the range of the osmotic pressure of the solution at 37C, given the preceding specifications?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is commonly used to melt ice on roads during the winter. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is sometimes used for this purpose too. Let us compare the effectiveness of equal masses of these two compounds in lowering the freezing point of water, by calculating the freezing point depression of solutions containing 200. g of each salt in 1.00 kg of water. (An advantage of CaCl2 is that it acts more quickly because it is hygroscopic, that is. it absorbs moisture from the air to give a solution and begin the process. A disadvantage is that this compound is more costly.)
Analysis of a compound gave 39.50% C, 2.21% H, and 58.30% Cl. When 0.855 g of this solid was dissolved in 7.50 g of naphthalene, the solution had a freezing point of 78.0C. The pure solvent freezes at 80.0C; its molal freezing point constant is 6.8C/m. a What is the molecular formula of the compound? b What is its molecular weight to the nearest 0.1 g?
Consider three test tubes. Tube A has pure water. Tube B has an aqueous 1.0 m solution of ethanol, C2H5OH. Tube C has an aqueous 1.0 m solution of NaCl. Which of the following statements are true? (Assume that for these solutions 1.0m=1.0M.) (a) The vapor pressure of the solvent over tube A is greater than the solvent pressure over tube B. (b) The freezing point of the solution in tube B is higher than the freezing point of the solution in tube A. (c) The freezing point of the solution in tube B is higher than the freezing point of the solution in tube C. (d) The boiling point of the solution in tube B is higher than the boiling point of the solution in tube C. (e) The osmotic pressure of the solution in tube B is greater than the osmotic pressure of the solution in tube C.
