Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The volume of chlorpromazine administered to the patient should be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
Mass/volume percent (m/V) concentration is defined as the mass of solute in grams for 100 mL of the solution. Here, mass of solute should be in grams and unit of volume of solution should be in millilitres.
Mathematically,
Answer to Problem 12.83FU
3 mL
Explanation of Solution
The stock solution is 2.5% mass by volume. This means 2.5 g of chlorpromazine is present in 100 mL of solution.
Thus, 1 g of chlorpromazine will be there in
Thus, the volume of solution containing given mass of chlorpromazine will be:
Thus, the volume of chlorpromazine administered to the patient will be 3 mL.
