Answer:

118.61 mL.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we know the concentration in the medication:

[tex]\frac{350.0\mu g}{1mL}[/tex]

Now, since there are 0.50 mg of the medication per kilogram of patient, we can compute the volume as shown below for a 183-lb patient:

[tex]183lb*\frac{1kg}{2.204lb}* \frac{0.50mg}{1kg} *\frac{1000\mu g}{1mg} *\frac{1mL}{350.0\mu g} =118.61mL[/tex]

Best regards!
