An infant acetaminophen suspension contains 80 mg/0.80 ml suspension. the recommended dose is 15 mg/kg body? weight. how many ml of this suspension should be given to a child weighing 13 ibs. me, im at a total loss at how to approach this problem

First, the child's weight must be converted from pounds to kilograms. 1 lb is equal to 0.453592 kg, so a 13 lb child weighs: 13 lb * 0.453592 kg/lb = 5.896696 kg Next, use the child's converted weight to determine the mg dosage. The recommended dose is 15 mg per kg, so the recommended dose is: 15 mg/kg * 5.896696 kg = 88.45044 mg Finally, determine how many mL are needed to provide the calculated mg dosage. One unit of the suspension is 80 mg/0.80 mL. In order to provide 88.45044 mg, you will need 88.45044 mg / 80 mg = 1.1056305 units of the suspension. Multiplying this by the 0.80 mL portion of the unit of the suspension, you get the final mL dosage: 0.80 mL * 1.1056305 = 0.8845044 mL A 13 lb child should receive 0.8845044 mL of the 80mg/.8mL suspension.

Evaporation: this is when warmth from the sun causes water from oceans, lakes, streams, ice and soils to rise into the air and turn into water vapour (gas). water vapour droplets join together to make clouds! condensation: this is when water vapour in the air cools down and turns back into liquid water.
