In order to rinse the system of exhaled c02 and meet the inspiratory flow rate requirements of infants placed on b-cpap, the flow rate of humidified gas should be set at:

In order to rinse the system of exhaled CO2 and meet the inspiratory flow rate requirements of infants placed on B-CPAP, the flow rate of humidified gas should be set at:

A. 16 to 20 L/minute

B. 6 to10 L/minute

C. at least 15 L/minute

D. 11 to 15 L/minute

B. 6 to10 L/minute

Explanation:

Bubble CPAP is a non-invasive, external ventilation technique used for newborn babies with infant respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS). Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is given to a spontaneously breathing newborn baby to preserve lung volumes during expiration

i had this on my unit activity, i can you if you are a plato student. are you a plato student?

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%
