Each litre is equivelant to approximately 3%. 35% Oxygen is about 5 litres

This math here is only correct if you are using a nasal cannula to deliver the oxygen. Respiratory therapy only uses this as an estimate since the cannula isn't the most effective oxygen delivery system but is the most comfortable for a patient.

21% Fio2 is room Air, that is we breath in normally, for anyone without any supplemental Oxygen.

The first 1 liter is 3%Fio2, which is 21% +3% =24%Fio2, thereafter it is 4% to each liter flow of oxygen

First liter of Oxygen which is 1Lpm =3% + 21%(Room Air) Total = 24% Fio2 Add 4% for each liter flow there 2Lpm= 28% Fio2

3Lpm= 32% Fio2

Save

4Lpm= 36% Fio2

5Lpm= 40% Fio2

6Lpm= 44% Fio2

For a Venturi Mask which is more effective especially for patients with COPD the Fio2 settings are as follows:

White cap:

  • 35% FiO2 set lpm at 9
  • 40% FiO2 set lpm at 12
  • 50% FiO2 set lpm at 15

Green cap:

  • 24% FiO2 set lpm at 3lpm
  • 26% FiO2 set lpm at 3lpm
  • 28% FiO2 set lpm at 6lpm
  • 30% FiO2 set lpm at 6 lpm

A chemist is making 200 L of a solution that is 62 percent acid He is mixing an 80 percent acid solution with a 30 percent acid solution How much of the 80 percent acid solution will he use?

The chemist will use 100 liters of the 80% acid solution and 100 liters of the 30% acid solution to make a 200-liter solution that is 62% acid. The amount of acid in the 80% solution will be 0.8 * 100 = 80 liters, and in the 30% solution, it will be 0.3 * 100 = 30 liters.
