For an order of Ticar at 500 mg, how many milliliters are required from a concentration of 1 g/2.6 mL?

To determine how many milliliters of Ticar are required for a 500 mg order from a concentration of 1 g in 2.6 mL, we need to work through the problem step by step.

First, convert the concentration from grams to milligrams, since the order is given in milligrams. The concentration is 1 g which is equivalent to 1000 mg. Thus, in 2.6 mL, there are 1000 mg of Ticar.

Next, calculate the concentration of Ticar in milligrams per milliliter:

[ \text{Concentration} = \frac{1000 \text{ mg}}{2.6 \text{ mL}} \approx 384.62 \text{ mg/mL} ]

Now that we have the concentration, we can set up a ratio to find out how many milliliters are needed to get 500 mg of Ticar:

Let ( x ) be the volume in mL required for 500 mg.

Using the proportion:

[ \frac{384.62 \text{ mg}}{1 \text{ mL}} = \frac{500 \text{ mg}}{x \text{ mL
