consume Gatorade to replenish the electrolytes lost through sweat. Since Gatorade has a high concentration of solutes such as electrolytes it allows for the nervous system to respond faster to changes in the body. “Electroyltes are molecules that can dissociate into ions and conduct electrical currents” (EduChange 2002). These molecules‚ can move freely‚ once dissociated into ions allowing for there to be a electrical current. Because elcetroyltes can not conduct electrical currents in there solid form

dissociate the weak acid. CH3COOH H+(aq) + CH3COO-(aq) approx 99% approx 1% Conductivity Any solution’s ability to conduct electricity is conditioned by the concentration of ions it contains. A strong acid has more ions than a weak one‚ and so it’s solution will be a better electrical conductor than a weak acid. The same goes for strong/weak bases. The conductivity may be measured using a power pack and two graphite electrodes connected to an ammeter. The apparatus

On the graph above‚ the data shows that NaCl (sodium chloride) held the highest amount of electrical conductivity for all groups and on the table it reads the highest numbers across its row. Also as seen in the data above‚ ethanol had the lowest amount of conductivity with sucrose‚ acetic acid‚ ammonia‚ and MgCl2 following in ascending order. It can also be determined from Table 1 that there were 2 solutions with strong electrolytes‚ 2 with weak

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS A conductor is an object or type of material which permits the flow of electric charges in one or more directions. For example‚ a wire is an electrical conductor that can carry electricity along its length. Physics All conductors contain electrical charges‚ which will move when an electric potential difference (measured in volts) is applied across separate points on the material. This flow of charge (measured in amperes) is what is meant by electric current. In most

Conductivity Solutions Abstract: We produced conductivity tests in water and other various solutions with a computer faced Conductivity Probe using the unit of microsiemens per centimeter (uS/cm) to find out which solutions had a high conductivity and which solutions had a low conductivity. Many different solutions vary in conductivity due to the ratio of ions. Different levels of ions have an impact on conductivity because of the different charges and different types of bonds. Conductivity is

Electrical Cable Cross section is just a two-dimensional view of a slice through an object. An often asked question: How can you convert the diameter of a round wire d to the circle cross section surface or the cross-section area A (slice plane) to the cable diameter d? Resistance varies inversely with the cross-sectional area of a wire. | ------------------------------------------------- Top of Form | Wire diameter d | unit | | | Cross-sectional area A | unit2 | | |

Describe the properties and a typical application of a solid and a liquid or gas electrical conductor. A conductor is a material that allows free movement of electrons and therefore allows easy flow of electricity. Most conductors are metals. A common metal used as a conductor in electrical technology is aluminium. It is used quite a lot as it cheap‚ lightweight and in abundance compared

ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION A substation is a part of an electrical generation‚transmission and distribution system. Substations transform voltage from high to low‚ or the reverse‚ or perform any of several other important functions. Electric power may flow through several substations between generating plant and consumer‚ and its voltage may change in several steps. Substations may be owned and operated by a transmission or generation electrical utility‚ or may be owned by a large industrial or commercial
