Question

The recommended application for dicyclanil for an adult sheep is 65 mg/kg of body mass. If dicyclanil is supplied in a spray with a concentration of 50. mg/mL, how many milliliters of the spray are required to treat a 70.-kg adult sheep?

Answer 1

Answer:

91 millilitres

Explanation:

Recommended application = 65mg / Kg

This means 65 mg of dicyclanil per kg (1 kg of body mass).

Concentration = 50 mg / mL

How many millilitres required to treat 70kg adult?

If 65mg = 1 kg

x = 70 mg

x = 70 * 65 = 4550 mg

Concentration = Mass / Volume

50 mg/mL = 4550 / volume

volume = 4550 / 50 = 91 mL
