Answer #1

55. You have received a medication order to prepare 500mL of a 1:500 solution. The pharmacy has in stock a concentrate of 80%. How much of the concentrate will you need to use?

s1v1=s2v2

(1/500) x 100% = .2%

(500 mL)(.2%) = x (80%)

x= 1.25

So, here the answer is option 'b' ie, 1.25ml
