Respuesta :
1 ml of blood contains 0.5 mg of elemental iron
Therefore, 6.0 ml of a blood sample will contain: (6.0 ml * 0.5 mg)/1.0 ml = 3.0 mg
1 mg = 1000 micro gram
therefore: 6.0 ml of blood will contain 3 * 10^3 micrograms of iron
Answer:
The answer is that in 6mL of blood there are 3,000 micrograms of elemental iron.
Explanation:
Hello!
Let's solve this!
The data we have are:
6mL of blood
every 1 mL of blood there is 0.5 mg of elemental iron
mg elemental iron: (0.5mg / 1mL) * 6mL = 3mg
As we are asked for micrograms, we know that 1mg = 1000micrograms
micrograms of elemental iron = 3mg * (1000micrograms / 1mg) = 3000micrograms
The answer is that in 6mL of blood there are 3,000 micrograms of elemental iron.
