questions with 100% complete solutions
two pan torsion-style - correct answer ✔✔What type of balance is a class 3 balance, has 2 pans
that balance against each other, and functions like a see saw?
electronic prescription - correct answer ✔✔The _____ _____ balance has a digital display with
one weigh pan and generally has a larger capacity range than the torsion balance.
cylindrical - correct answer ✔✔A _____ graduate is the preferred in pharmaceutical
compounding because they are more accurate and they are preferred for less viscous liquids.
20 - correct answer ✔✔In a cylindrical graduate, volumes below _____% of the capacity of the
graduate should be avoided.
conical - correct answer ✔✔A _____ graduate is preferred for more viscous liquids.
graduates - correct answer ✔✔______ are used to measure and transfer liquids.
smallest - correct answer ✔✔Use the ______ graduate that will hold the volume to be
measured
eye; meniscus - correct answer ✔✔When measuring, the graduate should be held at
__________ level, and the volume should be read at the bottom of the ____.
(sensitivity req. x 100%)/Accepted error - correct answer ✔✔Least amount weighable equation
, (theoretical -experiment)/theoretical x 100%
(absolute value) - correct answer ✔✔% error equation
+- 5% - correct answer ✔✔What is the accepted standard of error in pharmacy?
-without pork/animals products
-hypromellose
-vegan gelatin alternative
-extended release
-lactose intolerant
-dye-free
- vet compounding
-drug shortage - correct answer ✔✔What are some reasons for compounding capsules?
bigger - correct answer ✔✔In terms of capsules, the smaller the number the _______ the
capsule.
geometric dilution - correct answer ✔✔____ ____ is when you take a small amount of the drug
and mix it with a little bit of the filler powder.
figure 8 - correct answer ✔✔Geometric dilution uses the ________ method to ensure the
complete mixing of the powders
Evenly mix all the powder, block off, open capsule and punch and twist the open end of the
