a: 5
b: 1
c: 2
d: 3

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the concentration of heparin

The concentration of heparin in stock is \(10000U/5ml\), so the concentration \(C=\frac{10000}{5} = 2000U/ml\)

Step2: Calculate the volume to dispense

We know the dose \(D = 2000U\) and the concentration \(C=2000U/ml\). Using the formula \(V=\frac{D}{C}\), where \(V\) is the volume. Substitute \(D = 2000U\) and \(C = 2000U/ml\) into the formula: \(V=\frac{2000}{2000}=1ml\)

Answer:

B. 1
