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.

How many meq in one gram chloride?
0,028 mEq
How many mEq per hr will the patient receive if the patient has 40 mEq potassium chloride hanging in 1000ml of sodium chloride if it is to run over 24 hr?
1.67mEq Potassium per hour
How many milligrams is 40 meq of potassium citrate?
750 mg potassium chloride is equivalent to 10 mEq
How many grams in 20 mEq of Potassium?
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.
Potassium 595mg equals how many potassium meq?
how many meq's is 595 mg of potassium gluconate in pill form? _____________ You seem to be asking how translate a dose of potassium chloride, which is often expressed as mEq's when prescribed as a drug, into an equivalent dose of potassium in supplemental potassium gluconate, which is generally expressed in mg. 595 mg of potassium gluconate contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride also contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride is about 2.54 mEq That said, the potassium in potassium gluconate is more easily absorbed by the body than is the potassium in potassium chloride, so seeking the equivalent elemental potassium dosage may not be what you want as it may produce different effects in the body. For example, my mother had been prescribed 20mEq of potassium chloride by her doctor, which contains 781.960 mg of elemental potassium. The large pills were hard for her to swallow. Instead i gave her about 1/4 teaspoon of powered potassium gluconate mixed in a glass of water, which contained only about 135 mg elemental potassium, about the same contained in 3.5 mEq of potassium chloride. That was less than a fifth the amount prescribed by her doctor, yet her potassium levels in her blood tests were just fine.
How many meq in one gram chloride?
0,028 mEq
How many milliequivalents of sodium are in 300mg of sodium chloride?
The answer is 51,7 mmoles.
Convert sodium chloride mg to meq?
The formula for this conversion is mEq = mg/atomic weight * valence. The atomic weight of sodium chloride is 23mg/mM.
How many mEq per hr will the patient receive if the patient has 40 mEq potassium chloride hanging in 1000ml of sodium chloride if it is to run over 24 hr?
1.67mEq Potassium per hour
How much phosphate meq is in sodium phosphate?

How many grams is 1 meq?
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.
How many mEq is in 1g sodium citrate?

What is 2.5ml of sodium chloride?
2,5 mL solution = 0,0025 L
How do you convert 157 mg of sodium to mEq?
To convert sodium (Na) in mg to mEq you divide the value by the molecular weight of sodium (23 mg/mM). In this case for example 157 mg of sodium equals 7 mEq. Usual low sodium diets contain less than 3000 mg or 130 mEq of sodium.
How many milligrams is 40 meq of potassium citrate?
750 mg potassium chloride is equivalent to 10 mEq
MEq sodium in teaspoon of salt?
If a teaspoon has approx. 5 mL - approx. 35 mEq.
