A liter of 1/3 NS is to be prepared from 23.4% concentrated sodium chloride solution and sterile water for injection. How many milliliters of each are to be used?What is 1/3? Can you walk me through this?The book says the answers are 333 mL of NaCl and 667mL of water. I can't figure out how they get this answer or how to get it. Can you please post my problem on your website? If you can't answer my question, maybe one of your visitors can.
