ObjectivesUpon completion of this chapter, the student will be able to:

Perform calculations for altering product strength by dilution, concentration, or fortification.

Perform calculations for the preparation and use of stock solutions.

alternate in problem-solving.Slide3

Altering Product StrengthIf a mixture of a given strength is diluted to twice its original quantity, its strength will be reduced by one half because the active ingredient will be contained in twice as many parts of the whole

5 grams in 100 mL = 5%

5 grams in 200 mL = ?%Slide4

Dilution and ConcentrationIf a mixture is concentrated to one half its original quantity, the active ingredient will be contained in one-half as many parts of the whole and the strength will be doubled.

5 grams in 100 mL = 5%

5 grams in 50 mL = ?%

The percentage or ratio strength decreases as the quantity of solution increases (active ingredient remains constant)

The reverse is also trueSlide5

Multiple Ways to Solve a ProblemA problem can be solved in several ways. The best way is not necessarily the shortest: the best way is the one that is clearly understood.

Problems in this section may be solved by:

I

nverse

proportion

Q1

x

C1 = Q2

x

C2

By determining the quantity of active solute needed and then calculating the quantity of the available solution (usually concentrated or stock solution) that will provide the needed amount of constituent.Slide6

Stock SolutionsSolutions of known concentration. Usually strong solutions from which weaker ones are easily made.

Stock solutions are prepared on a weight in volume basis.Slide7

Dilution of AlcoholBecause of a noticeable contraction in volume when alcohol and water are mixed, we cannot calculate the precise volume of water needed to dilute alcohol to a desired volume in volume strength. However, we may “qs” with water to the appropriate volume.

Because the contraction of liquids does not affect the weights of the components, the weight of water needed to dilute alcohol to a desired weight in weight strength may be calculated.Slide8

Example 1If 500 mL of a 15% v/v solution of methyl salicylate in alcohol are diluted to 1500 mL, what will be the percentage strength v/v?Slide9

Example 2If a 0.067% (w/v)

methylbezethonium

chloride lotion is diluted with an equal volume of water, what will be the ratio strength (w/v) of the dilution?Slide10

Example 3What is the strength of a sodium chloride solution obtained by evaporating 800 g of a 10% (w/w) solution to 250 g?Slide11

Example 4How many milliliters of water for injection must be added to 10 liters of a 50%(w/v) dextrose injection to reduce the concentration to 30% (w/v)Slide12

Example 5How many milliliters of a 5% (w/v) solution of menthol in alcohol should be used to obtain the amount of menthol needed in preparing the lotion?

Menthol 0.1%

Hexachlorphene

0.1%

Glycerin 10.0%

Alcohol 70% to make 500mL Slide13

Example 6How many milliliters of a 1:400 (w/v) stock solution should be used to make 4 liters of a 1:2000 (w/v) solution?Slide14

Example 7How many milliliters of a 1:50 (w/v) stock solution of a chemical should be used to prepare 1 liter of a 1:4000 (w/v) solution?Slide15

Example 8How many milliliters of water must be added to 250 mL of a 25% (w/v) stock solution of sodium chloride to prepare a 0.9% (w/v) sodium chloride solution?Slide16

Example 9If a syrup containing 65% (w/v) of sucrose is evaporated to 85% of its volume, what percent (w/v) of sucrose will it contain?Slide17

Dilution of AcidsThe strength of an official concentrated acid is expressed as percentage weight-in-weight, e.g., HCl, NF contains 36.5% w/w

The strength of an official diluted acid is expressed as percentage weight-in-volume, e.g., Dil HCl, NF contains 9.5% w/vSlide18

Example 10How many milliliters of 37% (w/w) hydrochloric acid having a specific gravity of 1.20 are required to make 1000 mL of diluted hydrochloric acid 10% (w/v)?Slide19

Example 11How many milliliters of 85% w/w phosphoric acid having a specific gravity of 1.71 should be used in preparing 1 gallon of ¼% w/v phosphoric acid solution to be used for bladder irrigation?Slide20

Dilution and concentration of solids

Drug + Diluent = Product

How much drug present

in

or needed for the product?

How much diluent present

in

or needed in the product?

How much drug present in the stock solution?

How much diluent present in the stock solution?

Finally how much stock

solution

needed to get the desired drug for the finished product?Slide21

Example 12How many grams of opium containing 15% (w/w) of morphine and how many grams of lactose should be used to prepare 150 g of opium containing 10% (w/w) of morphine?Slide22

Example 12If some moist crude drug contains 7.2% of active ingredient and 21.6% of water, what will be the percentage (w/w) of active ingredient after the drug is dried?Slide23

Example 13How many grams of 20% benzocaine ointment and how many grams of ointment base (diluent) should be used in preparing 5 lb of 2.5% benzocaine ointment?Slide24

Example 14How many grams of coal tar should be added to 3200 g of 5% coal tar ointment to prepare an ointment containing 20% of coal tar? Slide25

Example 15How many milliliters of water should be added to 100 mL of a 1:125 (w/v) solution to make a solution such that 25 mL diluted to 100 mL will yield a 1:4000 dilution?Slide26

ALLIGATIONIt is a short-cut arithmetical method (based on algebraic summation) for solving problems that involve mixing of

Solutions or mixtures of solids possessing different percentage (%) strengths

Mixtures of liquids with different specific gravity, provided there is no change in volume when liquids are combined. There are two types

Alligation

Medial

Alligation

Alternate Slide27

Alligation MedialIt is a method by which the “weighted average” percentage strength of a mixture of two or more substances of known quantity and concentration may be quickly calculated.Slide28

Example 16What is the percentage (v/v) of alcohol in a mixture of 3000 mL of 40% (v/v) alcohol, 1000 mL of 60% (v/v) alcohol, and 1000 mL of 70% (v/v) alcohol (assume no contraction of volume)?Slide29

Alligation AlternateIt is a method by which we may calculate the number of parts of two or more components of a given strength when they are to be mixed to prepare a mixture of desired strength.Slide30

Example 17In what proportion should 20% benzocaine ointment be mixed with an ointment base to produce a 2.5% benzocaine ointment? Slide31

Example 18A hospital pharmacist wants to use three lots of ichthammol ointment containing, respectively, 50%, 20%, and 5% ichthammol. In what proportion should they be mixed to prepare a 10% ichthammol ointment?Slide32

Example 19How many milliliters of each of two liquids with specific gravities of 0.950 and 0.875 should be used to prepare 1500 mL of a liquid having a specific gravity of 0.925?Slide33

Example 20The formula for a buffer solution contains 1.24% (w/v) of boric acid. How many milliliters of a 5% (w/v) boric acid solution should be used to obtain the boric acid needed in preparing 1 liter of the buffer solution?Slide34
