    You are a great teacher. I love these videos. I do have 1 question tho. In the glycerin problem, why did you change 12g to 12ml?

    • @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy
      @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Nikki for watching and for your kind comment. Regarding your question, glycerin is a liquid in the formula. Hence, the concentration is percentage volume-in-volume (%v/v) and not percentage weight-in-volume. That is why the 12% is expressed as 12 mL/100 mL. Hope this helps.

    • @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy
      @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you Lovea for watching and for the comment. The 30 mL is the conversion factor used to convert the fl. oz to milliliters. 1 fl. oz is actually equal to 29.5735297 milliliters, however, 1 fl. oz = 30 mL is commonly used to convert fl. oz to milliliters as it is easy to remember. Hope this helps.

    Hello! I've been using your method and I felt likey the book and your methods don't seem to interact most of the time. My book gives different processes and I have been answering this one question for an hour using yours and the books.
    If 100 ml of pharmaceutical preparation contains 20mcg of a 50℅ w/v solution of benzalkonium chloride, what is the percent strength of that agent in the solution?
    It will help a lot of you help me. I'm a 1st year pharmacy student. And I have been beating my self up and calling myself dumb just because I could't answer this question
    Thank you in advance

    • @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy
      @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you Belle for watching and for the comment. If the question is asking about 20 mcg of the 50℅ w/v solution of benzalkonium chloride, then you have to use density to find the volume of solution represented by the 20 mcg. Density of 50℅ w/v solution of benzalkonium chloride is approximately 0.98 g/ml. Hence the volume represented by 20 mcg will be 0.02g /0.98 g/ml which is 0.0204 ml so approximately 0.02ml. Now, 50% implies 50 g in 100 ml. Hence the 0.02ml will contain ((0.02ml x 50g)/100ml) = 0.01g. Since, 0.01g is present in the 100 ml preparation, then the percentage strength is 0.01% w/v. Hope this helps.

    Thr questions is

    How many grams of a drug should be used to prepare 240g of a 5% solution

    • @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy
      @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Prisyosa for watching and for the comment. Solutions are typically weight by volume so we will need the volume of the solution that needs to be prepared. We can determine the volume using the mass in the question if we know the density. However, the density is not provided. Please clarify whether the quantity to be prepared is 240 g or 240 mL or some unit of volume.
