    How many grams of dextrose are in 1,000 mL of D10W?

    Explanation & Rationale

    Calculation: D10W stands for Dextrose 10% in Water.2 This means the solution contains 10 grams of dextrose for every 100 mL of solution. Calculate the total grams of dextrose in 1,000 mL. Using a ratio: 10 g/100 mL ​=x/1000 mL. ​ To solve for x: x= (10 g×1000 mL​)/ 100mL =10 g×10 =100 grams
