potassium compound formed by burning wood. Also during this time‚ people did not pick up on any distinctions between potassium and sodium‚ deeming them as the same element. In 1807‚ Sir Humphrey Davy discovered a difference in the two‚ therefore finding potassium. Thanks to this discovery‚ we now use potassium for a variety of things‚ such as liquid detergents‚ low-sodium salt‚ oxidizing agents‚ fireworks‚ fertilizers‚ heat- transfer medium‚ and many more.

Chapter 9 1) Approximately how much water do you need each day to stay healthy? Water constitutes 50% to 70% of the human body. Its unique chemical properties enable it to dissolve substances as well as serve as medium for chemical reactions‚ temperature regulation and lubrication (found in the knees and other joints of the body); it also aids in regulating the acid base balance in the body. It helps remove waste from the body and is the basis for saliva‚ bile and amniotic fluid. It is

An example of potential energy is A) a coiled spring. B) running water. C) tree branches blowing in the breeze. D) a moving elevator. E) electrical energy. Points Earned: 1.0/1.0 The correct answer is A. The definition of potential energy is an inactive type of energy that is stored for future use. All of these answers describe active energy‚ for example‚ running water is very active but can generate other types of energy. Which one of the following substances will float in gasoline

Conditions That Can Affect Blood Results Using Luminol The purpose of this science experiment was to discover under what conditions can blood give a false result using the presumptive test called luminol. In order to better grasp the experiment‚ research was conducted on several subtopics: the basic concept of luminol‚ the basic concept of artificial blood which is being used for this experiment instead of legitimate blood‚ and substances interferences that could tamper with crime scene results

such as the Nernst potential. In terms of membrane transport the gradient is of interest as it contributes to increased system entropy in the co-transport of substances against their gradient. One of the most important pumps in animal cells is the sodium potassium pump‚ that operates through the following mechanism:[7] binding of three Na+ ions to their active sites on the pump which are bound to ATP. ATP is hydrolyzed leading to phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic side of the pump‚ this induces
