hypertonic beverage. An electrolyte is any substance that contains free ions that behaves as an electrically conductive medium (conducts electricity). There would be no life without these electrolytes. Our body’s electrolytes include sodium (Na)‚ potassium (K)‚ calcium (Ca)‚ bicarbonate (HCO3)‚ magnesium (Mg)‚ chloride (Cl)‚ and hydrogen carbonate (HCO3). Electrolytes also control many functions in your body. Such as regulating our nerves and muscle functions and our body’s hydration‚ blood pH‚ blood

The cell works hard to maintain pH levels‚ carbon dioxide levels‚ and the sodium potassium pump to help prevent death of the cell or tissue. C) Lysosomes membranes as part of their structure which have active transport pumps to help maintain the acidic interior to the lysosome because lysosome enzymes work their best at acidic levels

Class B contains carbon dioxide & is used on fire with gasoline‚ oil‚ paint‚ & cooking fat fires. Class C contains potassium bicarbonate or potassium chloride‚ is used on electrical fires because the chemical is non conducting agent‚ also used on burning liquids for a smothering action. Class ABC or combination is the most common at homes or schools. It contains a graphite type chemical

Flame Test Lab Your company has been contracted by Julius and Annette Benetti. They are worried about some abandoned‚ rusted barrels of chemicals that their daughter found while playing in the vacant lot behind their home. The barrels have begun to leak a colored liquid that flows through their property before emptying into a local sewer. The Benettis want your company to identify the compound in the liquid. Earlier work indicates that it is a dissolved metal compound. Many metals‚ such as

He was well known for his discoveries of most alkali metals and Alkaline Earth Metals‚ such as potassium‚ magnesium‚ and many more(Chemicool Periodic Table).Sodium is from the alkali metal family. There are five more chemical elements from the same exact family. The period number of sodium is three. Na is the chemical symbol of sodium on the periodic

------------------------------------------------- Water and Electrolytes Water constitutes 50-55% of a woman’s body weight and 55-60% of man’s weight. Water gives structure and form to the body‚ helps maintain body temperature‚ and also creates the necessary environment for cell metabolism. There are two compartments of body water‚ extracellular and intracellular fluid. Extracellular fluid (ECF) is water found outside of cells. Making up approximately 20% of total body weight‚ the ECF consists
