Question
Answer
True or False: An oral antibiotic that is reconstituted has a shelf life of 1 month.   False  
🗑
True or False: Decrease of particl size leads to better dissolution rate and better bioavailibility.   True  
🗑
True or False: Particle size reduction leads to increased surface area per unit weith.   True  
🗑
True or False: Decrease of particl size leads to better dissolution rate but not better bioavailibility.   False  
🗑
True or False: Divided powders are ususally given for potent compounds.   True  
🗑
True or False: The smaller the number of a sieve, the smaller the particle size.   False  
🗑
True or False: An advantage of a powder is that it can be made into many different dosage formulations.   True  
🗑
True or False: The larger the number of a sieve, the larger the particle size.   False  
🗑
True or False: The adhesion of a thin layer of molecules of some substance to the surface of a solid or liquid describes "adsorptive".   True  
🗑
True or False: Powders can be applied to many body cavities such as nose, ear, and throat, but not tooth sockets.   False  
🗑
True or False: A 1 mm particle size for a powder is considered very fine.   False  
🗑
True or False: A 1 mm particle size for a powder is considered fine.   False  
🗑
True or False: An advantage of granules over powders is that granules have less of a caking tendency in dispersions.   True  
🗑
True or False: Comminution increases the surface area of particles tremendously.   True  
🗑
True or False: An advantage of powders over granules is that powders have good floow properties as compared to granules.   False  
🗑
True or False: An advantage of powders over granules is that powders have less of a caking tendency in dispersions.   False  
🗑
True or False: Bulk powders are relatively non-potent.   True  
🗑
True or False: Comminution decreases the surface area of particles tremendously.   False  
🗑
True or False: Powders can be applied to many body cavities such as nose, ear, throat, and tooth sockets.   True  
🗑
True or False: Powders can be made into many different dosage formulations, such as capsules, tablets, dusting powders and inhalation powders.   True  
🗑
True or False: The adhesion of a thin layer of molecules of some substance to the surface of a solid or liquid describes "absorptive".   False  
🗑
True or False: The uptake of liquid into the fibers of a substance describes "absorptive".   True  
🗑
True or False: The uptake of liquid into the fibers of a substance describes "adsorptive".   False  
🗑
True or False: Very potent drugs are not packaged as bulk powder.   True  
🗑
True or False: A 1 mm particle size for a powder is considered coarse   False  
🗑
True or False: A 1 mm particle size for a powder is considered moderately coarse.   False  
🗑
True or False: Particle size reduction leads to decreased surface area per unit weith.   False  
🗑
True or False: The larger the number of a sieve, the smaller the particle size.   True  
🗑
True or False: A 1 mm particle size for a powder is considered very coarse.   True  
🗑
True or False: Powders can be applied to many body cavities such as nose, tooth socket and throat, but not ears.   False  
🗑
True or False: A disadvantage of a powder is that it cannot be made into any other dosage formulation.   False  
🗑

🗑
True or False: An oral antibiotic that is reconstituted has a shelf life of 1-2 weeks.   True  
🗑
True or False: Decrease of particl size leads to better bioavailibility but not dissolution rater.   False  
🗑
True or False: Granules also contain coloring and flavoring agent in addition to other pharmaceutical ingredients.   True  
🗑
True or False: Very potent drugs can be packaged as a bulk powder.   False
