ANSWERS TO “CASE IN POINT” AND
PRACTICE PROBLEMS
Case in Point 6.1
a. 58 g (weight of filled pycnometer) – 28 g (weight of pycnometer) =
30 g (weight of 25 mL of albumin solution)
30 g ÷ 25 mL = 1.2, specific gravity of albumin solution

5.
b.
c.
d. 2000 mL (total solution) – 400 mL (albumin solution) = 1600 mL
(0.9% sodium chloride solution)
1680 g + 480 g = 2160 g (total weight of the 2000 mL)
2160 g ÷ 2000 mL = 1.08, specific gravity of the mixture
Case in Point 6.2
a.
b.
c.
30 g total mixture – 6.75 g hydrocortisone injection = 23.25 g cold
cream needed
