Final answer:
To calculate the total mmol of Calcium Chloride in the syringe, convert the volume of solution to liters and calculate the moles using the formula Moles = volume (L) x molarity. The total mmol of Calcium Chloride is 2 mmol.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the total mmol of Calcium Chloride in the syringe, we need to first convert the 10 mL volume of solution into liters. Since 1 L = 1000 mL, the volume of the solution in liters is 10 mL / 1000 mL/L = 0.01 L. Next, we can calculate the moles of Calcium Chloride using the formula:
Moles = volume (L) x molarity
Given that the syringe contains a 20% solution of Calcium Chloride, we can calculate the molarity as follows:
Molarity = 20% / 100% = 0.2
Plugging the values into the formula, we get:
Moles = 0.01 L x 0.2 = 0.002 mol
Finally, to calculate the total mmol of Calcium Chloride, we convert the moles to mmol by multiplying by 1000:
Total mmol = 0.002 mol x 1000 = 2 mmol
