In clinical lab reports, some concentrations are given in mg/dL. Convert a Ca2+ concentration of 3.5 mg/dL to weight/volume percent.

Answer 1

3.5 mg/dL = 0.0035 g/dL.
= 0.000035 g/mL.
= 0.0035 g/mL = 0.0035%(m/v)

Answer 2

thank you so much! I understand it way better now!

Answer 3

I made a typo, actually, an omission.
3.5 mg/dL = 0.0035 g/dL.
= 0.000035 g/mL.
= 0.0035 g/mL = 0.0035%(m/v)
This last line should be 0.0035 g/100 mL = 0.0035%(mv)
