A solution contains 1500 mEq of potassium per liter. How many mmol of potassium are contained in the liter?

Answer :

Answer:

1500 mmol.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for such monovalent potassium species, we can verify that 1 mEq equals 1 mmol, therefore, the required solution is shown below:

[tex]1500 mEq*\frac{1mmol}{1mEq} \\\\=1500 mmol[/tex]

Which means that also 1500 mmol of monovalent potassium ions are contained in the liter.

Regards.
