Hold on here, I need to do some heavy calculation ... okay, done. One tablespoon of table salt contains 1.0 tablespoons of sodium chloride. Since the atomic weight of sodium chloride is 58.5, 1 meq of salt is 58.5 mg. Since one tablespoon = 14.8 ml and salt weights 1.02 g/ml, one tablespoon of salt weighs 15.2 g or 15,200 mg. So one tablespoon of salt = 15,200 / 58.5 = 260 mEQ.
0,028 mEq
1.67mEq Potassium per hour
750 mg potassium chloride is equivalent to 10 mEq
No. You'd need about 4 tablets of 99 mg KCl to equal 10 mEq of prescription-strength KCl, 8 tablets to equal 20 mEq.
If a teaspoon has approx. 5 mL - approx. 35 mEq.

0,028 mEq
Approx. 85 mEq if the teaspoon has 5 mL volume.
1.67mEq Potassium per hour
it depends on the stregth of the drug
The formula for this conversion is mEq = mg/atomic weight * valence. The atomic weight of sodium chloride is 23mg/mM.
The answer is 51,7 mmoles.
Per FDA factsheet ... Potassium chloride extended-release capsules, USP, 10 mEq is an oral dosage form of microencapsulated potassium chloride containing 750 mg of potassium chloride USP equivalent to 10 mEq of potassium.
750 mg potassium chloride is equivalent to 10 mEq
The answer is 0,0584 g or 58, 4 mg.
No. You'd need about 4 tablets of 99 mg KCl to equal 10 mEq of prescription-strength KCl, 8 tablets to equal 20 mEq.
