2200 mg of antibiotic

Explanation:

Given that 40 mg of antibiotic/kg of the bodyweight is given.

If patient is 55 kg then  the dose of antibiotic will be

if 40/1000000 is done then we can get antibiotic in kg/kg of the weight

= 0.00004 kg of antibiotic per kg

0.00004*55 ( to know how much 55 kg person will require)

= 0.0022 kg

This 0.0022 value will be converted to mg

0.0022*10^6

= 2200 mg of antibiotic will be given to a 55kg patient.

The specific heats of two natural substances are shown in the table. Specific Heat Natural Substance Specific Heat Wet Mud 2.5 J
Novay_Z [31]

The specific heat of a substance is heat released or absorbed by one gram for a change in 1 degree celsius

so higher the specific heat, more the heat required to raise the temperature by same extent or more the heat released on decrease in temperature upto same extent (for two substance)

Here the specific heat of sandy clay is 1.4 J/g °C

So it is less than that of wet mud hence sandy clay is needs to release less energy to decrease its temperature

Label the molecular shape around each of the central atoms in the amino acid glycine. hint
svetlana [45]

The Structure of Glycine is attached below and each central atom is encircled with different colors.

Molecular Shape around Nitrogen Atom (Orange):

As shown, Nitrogen is making three single bonds with two hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom hence, it has three bonded pair electrons and a single lone pair of electron. Therefore, according to VSEPR theory it has a tetrahedral electronic geometry but due to repulsion created by lone pair of electrons its molecular geometry becomes Trigonal Pyramidal.

Molecular Shape around Carbon Atom (Green):

As shown, Carbon is making four single bonds with two hydrogen atoms and one nitrogen atom one with carbon atom of carbonyl group hence, it has four bonded pair electrons. Therefore, according to VSEPR theory it has Tetrahedral geometry.

Molecular Shape around Carbon Atom (Blue):

As shown, Carbon is making two single bonds with oxygen and carbon atoms and a double bond with oxygen. Hence, it has a Trigonal Planar geometry.

Molecular Shape around Oxygen Atom (Red):

As shown, Oxygen is making two single bonds with one carbon atoms and one hydrogen atom hence, it has two bonded pair electrons and two lone pair of electrons. Therefore, according to VSEPR theory it has a tetrahedral electronic geometry but due to repulsion created by lone pair of electrons its molecular geometry becomes Bent.

Choose the answer in which the three atoms and/or ions are listed in order of increasing EXPECTED size (smallest particle listed
svp [43]

Answer:

Ar < Cl - < S2-

Explanation:

All the species written above are isoelectronic. This means that they all possess the same number of electrons. All the species above possess 18 electrons, the noble gas electron configuration.

However, for isoelectronic species, the greater the atomic number of the specie, the smaller it is. This is because, greater atomic number implies that their are more protons in the nucleus exerting a greater attractive force on the electrons thereby making the specie smaller in size due to high electrostatic attraction.

What is the amount of heat released when 25g of water cools 12.5 degrees C ?
Over [174]
Water can't cool at a single temperature. It must start at a higher temperature, and drop to a lower temperature in order to cool. Unless we know the other temperature, there is no way to calculate the amount of thermal energy released.
