    After that 5-car accident, the patients' families were here immediately. More than one patient = patients One patient has something = patient's Many patients have something = patients' Examples: I have several patients to see today. This pateint's chart is incorrect. After that 5-car accident, the patients' families were here immediately.

    Here's how you do it. > You can see the general method of calculating dilution factors in this Socratic answer. The general method for calculating serial dilutions is in this answer The general formula is for calculating a single dilution factor is "DF" = V_f/V_i Here you have two dilution factors, one for the first dilution and another for the other dilutions. First dilution : V_f = "aliquot ...

    A patient recovering from surgery is being given fluid intravenously. The fluid has a density of #1030# #kg##/##m^3# and #9.5 * 10^-4##m^3# of it flows into the patient every six hours.

  5. Nuclear Half-Life Calculations - Chemistry - Socratic

    Explanation: You could use this formula: Where Th = half-life. M. = the beginning amount. M = the ending amount. One example of how to use the equation: One of the Nuclides in spent nuclear fuel is U-234, an alpha emitter with a half-life of 2.44 x10^5 years. If a spent fuel assembly contains 5.60 kg of U-234, how long would it take for the ...

  6. How do you calculate serial dilutions? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-do-serial-dilution-calculations

    In serial dilutions, you multiply the dilution factors for each step. The dilution factor or the dilution is the initial volume divided by the final volume. DF = V i V f. For example, if you add a 1 mL sample to 9 mL of diluent to get 10 mL of solution, DF = V i V f = 1mL 10mL = 1 10. This is a 1:10 dilution.

  7. Which is correct: My Patient has/have cough? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/5a37c2a111ef6b1dae98e366

    In other persons (first and second singular and all plural forms) word have should be used. Note: As @aielliot said article 'a' shouldbe used here, so the correct sentence is: My patient has a cough. Answer link. "My patient has a cough" I'm a native English speaker but I can't tell you why the article "a" needs to be there.

    Half Life follows first Order kinetics. This graph shows what is going on during the decay. As you can see from the graph the half life is 8 days. Lets do the math and verify it with the graph. Recall # t_(1/2) = ln2/k# #8 = ln2/k# #k = ln2/8# With this you can solve most problems regarding the above data. #ln(A_o/A_t) = kt#

    The amount of a certain drug present in a patient's body t days after it has been administered is C(t)=5e^-0.2t Determine the average amount of drug present in the patients body for the first 4 days after drug is administered.

  10. How do you calculate dilution factor? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-calculate-dilution-factor

    DF = V f V i. EXAMPLE 1: What is the dilution factor if you add a 0.1 mL aliquot of a specimen to 9.9 mL of diluent? Solution: V f = aliquot volume + diluent volume = (0.1 + 9.9) mL = 10.0 mL. DF = V f V i = 10.0mL 0.1mL = 100. You have diluted the sample by a factor of 100. The dilution factor is often used as the denominator of a fraction.

    Your patient needs "100 mg". SInce your drug's dose is expressed in mg per kg, you'll need to convert it to mg per pound first, and then determine how much a 110-lbs patient would need. 2 "mg"/"kg" * "1 kg"/"2.20462 lbs" = "0.9072 mg/lbs" then "110 lbs" * 0.9072"mg"/"lbs" = "99.8 mg" Rounded to one sig fig, the number of sig figs in 2 mg, the answer will be m_("drug") = "100 mg" You can do ...
