A nurse is preparing to administer 250mg of antibiotic IM. Available is 6g/10mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? Round of to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.

To determine the correct volume to administer, follow these steps: 1. Convert the available concentration to mg/mL: 6 grams = 6000 mg (since 1 gram = 1000 mg) Therefore, 6000 mg / 10 mL = 600 mg/mL. 2. Calculate the volume to administer: The ordered dose is 250 mg. Volume to administer = 250 mg / 600 mg/mL = 0.4167 mL. 3. Round to the nearest tenth: 0.4167 mL rounded to the nearest tenth is 0.4 mL.
