Answer is: 2,469 mL give to the child.
The mass m in kilograms (kg) is equal to the mass m in pounds (lb) times 0,45359237: m(child) = 72,6 · 0,045359237 = 32,93 kg.
m(Medrol) = 32,93 kg · 1,5 mg/kg.
m(Medrol) = 49,39 mg.
d(Medrol) = 20,0 mg/mL.
V(Medrol) = m(Medrol) ÷ d(Medrol).
V(Medrol) = 49,39 mg ÷ 20 mg/mL.
V(Medrol) = 2,469 mL.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

b . Irradiated food is shown to not be radioactive.

Explanation:

If it can be proven that irradiated food is not radioactive, then it will effective dispute the idea that irradiated food are less safe to eat.

  • An irradiated food is one in which ionizing radiations have been employed to improve food quality.
  • Thus, bacteria and other food spoilers can be exterminated from the food.
  • Most irradiated food do not contain radiation and are fit for consumption.

If it can be proven, that this is true, then it will challenge the idea that irradiated foods are not safe.

Consider the reaction. X ( g ) + Y ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − Z ( g ) K p = 1.00 at 300 K In which direction will the net reaction proceed fo
marta [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have in this question the equilibrium

X ( g ) + Y ( g ) ⇆  Z ( g )

With the equilibrium contant Kp = pZ/(pX x pY)

The moment we change the concentration of Y, we are changing effectively the partial pressure of Y since pressure and concentration are directly proportional

pV = nRT ⇒ p = nRT/V and n/V is molarity.

Therefore we can calculate the reaction quotient Q

Qp = pZ/(pX x pY) = 1/ 1  x 0.5 atm = 2

Since Qp is greater than Kp the system proceeds from right to left.

We could also arrive to the same conclusion by applying LeChatelier´s principle which states that any disturbance in the equilibrium, the system will react in such a way to counteract the change to restore the equilibrium. Therefore, by having reduced the pressure of Y the system will react favoring the reactants side increasing some of the y pressure until restoring the equilibrium Kp = 1.

An ice cube measuring 5.80 cm by 5.80 cm by 5.80 cm has a density of 0.917 g/mL What is the mass?
OLga [1]

Answer: 178.9 g

Explanation:

Density = \frac{mass}{volume in mL}

find volume of the cube: (5.80 cm) (5.80 cm) (5.80cm) = 195.112 cm³

1.0 cm³ = 1.0 mL

so 195.112 cm³ = 195.112 mL

plug value into density equation:

0.917 g/mL = (mass) / (195.112 mL)

and solve for mass!

A compound that is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen contains 70.6% C, 5.9% H, and 23.5% O by mass. The molecular weight
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: The molecular formula will be C_8H_8O_2

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of C= 70.6 g

Mass of H = 5.9 g

Mass of O = 23.5 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{70.6g}{12g/mole}=5.9moles

Moles of H =\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{5.9g}{1g/mole}=5.9moles

Moles of O =\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{23.5g}{16g/mole}=1.5moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = \frac{5.9}{1.5}=4

For H = \frac{5.9}{1.5}=4

For O =\frac{1.5}{1.5}=1

The ratio of C : H: O= 4: 4:1

Hence the empirical formula is C_4H_4O

The empirical weight of C_4H_4O = 4(12)+4(1)+1(16)= 68g.

The molecular weight = 136 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{136}{68}=2

The molecular formula will be=2\times C_4H_4O=C_8H_8O_2
