    Hello Professor. Can you pls reword this problem, Ty? Dimethyl Sulfoxide Liquid is supplied as a 50% weight/weight solution with a specific gravity of 1.40. What is the percent weight/volume of liquid dimethyl sulfoxide?

    I want to clarify on the last question. Why the total parts were added 0.225 and 0.06? How come in the ratio we did not do 500 g x 0.06/0.225

      In the question, the goal is to make 500 grams of the sorbitol solution. This is the total quantity. Hence, the number of parts that represents the 500 grams will be the total parts. Since 0.06 is the number of parts of water and the 0.225 is the number of parts is the sorbitol solution having a specific gravity of 1.285, we add both numbers to get the total parts which is 0.285. Hope this helps. Thank you Sareena for watching and for the comment.

    If fifty glycerin suppositories are made from the following formula, how many milliliters of glycerin, having a specific gravity of 1,25, would be used in the preparation of 96 suppositories? Glycerin 91 g 9 g Sodium stearate 5 g Purified water

      Thank you for the question Stephen. It appears the question did not transcribe properly when copied over. It is difficult to tell the quantities for some of the ingredients.

    Help me with this question.

    Help😭 why did we still have to determine the volume of ppg when the volume (1pt = 473ml) was already given?

    • @PharmaceuticalCalculationsEasy

      Thank you Maria for watching and for the comment. Regarding your question, the pharmacist starts out with 1 pint of ppg (specific gravity = 1.20) which is diluted with 500 ml of water (specific gravity = 1). At this point the specific gravity of the resulting solution is about 1.10. However, the goal is to end up with a solution having a specific gravity of 1.15. Hence, you need to add more ppg to increase the specific gravity of the solution. That is why we still need to precisely determine the volume of the ppg that needs to be added. Hope this helps.

    I want to clarify the first question, the answer in the textbook is 1031.38 mL how come you come up with different answer

      Thank you Shaira for watching and for the comment. It is likely the answer in the book is incorrect. Here is an alternative way to solve the question and it gives the same answer as the alligation method. jo.my/b6exmh
