Agent-specific monitoring. Lithium. Patients beginning lithium therÂ­apy should undergo thyroid function testing and, for patients age >40, ECG monÂ­itoring. Educate patients about potential side effects of lithium, signs and symptoms of lithium toxicity, and the importance of avoiding dehydration.
A standard solution is a solution whose concentration is known accurately. Its concentration is usually. given in mol dmâ3. When making up a standard solution it is important that the correct mass of substance is. accurately measured. It is also important that all of this is successfully transferred to the volumetric flask. used to make up the solution. The following procedure will make sure that this happens. Background calculations. 1.
The method of standardization can be used if a primary standard reacts quantitatively with the reagent needed in the standard solution. HCl cannot be considered to be a primary standard because of its gaseous form at room temperature, but its solutions may be standardized against anhydrous Na 2 CO 3. For the purposes of this course, concentration in molarity will be given the symbol of c and that of normality the symbol c N.
