Answer:

1/2 mL

Explanation:

Don't ever get this question wrong. Morphine is a really ugly brute. Set up a proportion

20 mg / 2 mL = 5 mg / x         Cross multiply

20 mg x = 5 mg * 2 mL                  Combine

20 mg x = 10 mg*mL                Divide by 20

x = 10/20

x = 0.5

You should administer 1/2 mL

______________________________________________

Your answer would be 1/2 mL

The reasoning is because you have 20 mg for every 2.0 mL

so you divide the 20 by the 2.00 mL and get 10

Then you divide it again by 2 and get 5

The answer is not 5 it needs a decimal in front of it

so your answer would be .5 mL which is 1/2 of a mL

Always look up the answer before you actually give a patient

any dose of medications because you do not want the patient

to get sick or overdose because you could get sued by the

parents or fired you could also go to jail if it was purposely done.
