Answer:
A = 43.13 meq
the patient received 43.13 meq of KCL
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Total volume of container V = 1000 mL
KCL Content m = 75 meq
Concentration of KCL in the container volume is;
c = m/V
Substituting values;
c = 75/1000 meq/mL
c = 0.075 meq/mL
The amount A in meq of KCL in the fluid received by the patient;
The patient have received 575 mL
Amount A = concentration × volume
A = 0.075 meq/mL × 575 mL
A = 43.125 meq
A = 43.13 meq
the patient received 43.13 meq of KCL
