When michelle's blood was tested, the chloride level was 0.45 g/dl. a. what is this value in milliequivalents per liter?

The value in milliequivalents per liter 127 mEq/L when michelle's blood was tested, the chloride level was 0.45 g/dl.

Milliequivalent:

A milliequivalent is a unit of measurement often used for electrolytes and it tells us the chemical activity of the species relative to 1 mg of hydrogen.

The formula,

0.45 g/dL x 10 dL/1L = 4.5 g/L

Put the value,

Given here,

Chloride level =  0.45 g/dl = 4500 mg/L

The atomic weight of chloride (35.5 g/mol) to solve for the mEq/L:

= 127 mEq/L

Hence, we can conclude that the value in milliequivalents per liter 127 mEq/L when michelle's blood was tested, the chloride level was 0.45 g/dl.
