The formula to calculate the rate in milliliters per hour is:
\[ \text{Rate (mL/hr)} = \frac{\text{Volume (mL)}}{\text{Time (hr)}} \]
Where:
Milliliters per hour (mL/hr) is a measure of flow rate commonly used in medical dosing and various chemical processes. It indicates the volume of fluid that passes through a given point or is administered over the course of an hour. This measurement is crucial for ensuring accurate and safe delivery of medications, nutrients, or chemicals.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the rate in milliliters per hour:
\[ \text{Rate (mL/hr)} = \frac{500}{5} = 100 \text{ mL/hr} \]
The rate is 100 mL/hr.
