Expert Solution

5. We are provided that there are 10,000 units of Heparin in 500 ml D5W

which means 1ml of D5W will have 10,000units/500ml = 20units/ml or 20 units of Heparin in every 1mL of solution.

Now, run rate = 30ml/hr

Therefore, for 30ml, total units of Heparin = 30ml x 20units/ml = 600units

Hence rate becomes 600units/hr.
