Question

a patient receives 3.2 L of glucose solution intravenously. if 100 ml of the solution contains 3.3 g of glucose, how many kilocalories did the patient obtain from glucose solution a patient receives 3.2 L of glucose solution intravenously. if 100 ml of the solution contains 3.3 g of glucose, how many kilocalories did the patient obtain from glucose solution a patient receives 3.2 L of glucose solution intravenously. if 100 ml of the solution contains 3.3 g of glucose, how many kilocalories did the patient obtain from glucose solution

Explanation / Answer

100 mL of glucose solution has 3.3 gm of glucose
3200 mL (or 3.2L) of glucose has ? gm of glucose
just cross multiply to find out the gms of glucose in 3.2L of solution
3200mL * 3.3 gm / 100mL = 105.6gms
1 gm of carbohydrate gives 4 kcal
105.6 gms of glucose gives ? kcal
kilocalories patient obtained from glucose solution = 105.6 * 4 = 422.4 kcal
