A dose of 4500mg of medication has ordered for a patient. The medication comes in 5g/0.3mL. What volume will you give the patient?

please show conversions



Answer :

According to the given statement the volume of medicine will give to the patient = 0.27ml.

What specifically is density?

A substance's density is defined as its mass per unit volume. The most common symbol for density is, but the Latin letter D is also an option.

What is the significance of density?

Density is an important topic because it tells us which compounds will float and which will sink when placed in some kind of liquid. Substances float in general if their density is smaller than the density of the liquid in which they are immersed.

ρ = m/v

ρ = density

m = mass

V = volume

According to the given information:

Medicine = 4500mg

The medication comes in 5g/0.3mL

We know that:

mL = mg / 1000

So,

ml = 4500/1000

    = 4.5ml

Formula for finding volume = weight/density

                                              = 4.5/(5/.3)

                                              = (4.5 * 0.3)/5

                                               = 0.27ml

According to the given statement the volume will give to the patient = 0.27ml.
