Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much fluconazole should be weighed out for this ointment, we need to determine the amount of fluconazole in 25 ml of 1.0% fluconazole ointment. We can do this by multiplying the volume of the ointment (25 ml) by the concentration of the fluconazole (1.0%):

fluconazole needed = 25 ml * 1.0%

= 25 ml * 0.01

= 0.25 g

So, the technician should weigh out 0.25 g of fluconazole for the ointment. I hope this helps! Do you have any other questions?
