Question
1. Drug medications are often prescribed on the basis of bodyweight. The adult dosage of Elixophyllin, a drug used to treatasthma, is 6 mg/kg of body mass. Calculate the dose in milligramsfor a 150-lb person.2. A pipet delivers 9.04, 9.02, 9.08, and 9.06 mL in consecutivetrials. Find the mean volume and the average deviation from themean.
Here is an Example of how to do #2
Mean volume: (10.02 mL + 10.12 mL + 10.08 mL + 10.06 mL) / 4 =10.07 mL
Individual deviations, in order: .05 mL, .05 mL, .01 mL, .01 mL
Average deviation: (.05 mL + .05 mL + .01 mL +.01 mL) / 4 = .03mL
Remember that was only an example
