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
Hello
______________________________________________
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.
