Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Non–Electrolytes The objective of this lab the type of
compounds formed in many different solutions dissolved in water based on the conductivity of each.
Procedure: Refer to handout entitled "Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Non–Electrolytes"
Materials: Refer to handout entitled "Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Non–Electrolytes"
Data & Observations: Solution Conductivity (μS/cm) A – CaCl2 9100 μS/cm A – AlCl3 11920
μS/cm A – NaCl 6280 μS/cm B – HC2H3O2 485 μS/cm B – HCl 15400 μS/cm B – H3PO4 6000

this to the best of our ability would be to make sure the water's conductivity is 0 μS/cm before
dissolving the compound in it. Secondly, the probe may not always be completely clean, therefore, a
different compound could accidentally be measured if it is not completely washed. This could be
avoided by simply washing the probe more thoroughly in water with a confirmed conductivity of 0

Discussion:
The investigation was to determine how an ingested substance can affect urine volume and colour.
The volume graph clearly indicates the average volume of urine was highest for participants who
consumed water, followed by the electrolyte drink, chips and control who did not consume anything.
Each colour graph shows the frequency of urine colour for each group. Colour charts were used to
measure the colour of urine, one being the lightest or most dilute and five the darkest or most
concentrated. The control group showed increases in frequency for colour one, occurring at 30 and
60 minutes, steady results for colour two, decreases in three at 60 minutes and slightly staggered
results for four and five. Partakers who ingested chips ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The stimulus produced a change that lead to decreases in blood volume and hydration. The change,
detected by the hypothalamus, the control centre, which maintains homeostasis, initiates the
pituitary gland to secrete ADH. This is used to prevent dehydration by retaining water and explains
the low volume of urine. Furthermore, the adrenal glands secrete aldosterone, signalling the kidney
to reabsorb more sodium, increasing blood volume. Since chips are high in sodium, more
concentrated urine was produced as the heart secretes ANP to enable the out flow of sodium. The
electrolyte drink and water had similar results. The frequency of colour one increased significantly
and colour five decreased, indicating more dilute urine due to drinking large amounts of liquids.
Secretion of ADH would have slowed down of ceased as reabsorption of water was not required,
therefore, large amounts of dilute urine was excreted. Water had a higher frequency of colour one
than the electrolyte drink as it does not contain sodium, whereas electrolyte drinks do and hence,
had more people with urine of colours three and four. This is an example of a negative feedback
system as the hypothalamus detects a change generated by a stimulus and initiates the appropriate
glands to secrete specific hormones to respond and correct the change.
It is extremely important for the body to react to stimuli to maintain homeostasis, a constant internal
environment, and is required for normal bodily functions.

8. How Do Fuel Cells Work
How fuel cells work A fuel cell is a device that produces an electrical current through a chemical
reaction. All fuel cells contain a cathode and an anode, which are positive and negative electrodes,
respectively. The chemical reactions which produce electricity occur at the electrodes. Fuel cells
also contain an electrolyte, which carries electrically charged particles between the electrodes. A
catalyst also aids to speed up the chemical reaction at the electrodes. In fuel cells, an impurity must
serve as the electrolyte; if one uses distilled water for this experiment, it could serve only as the
control, because purified water does not contain any substances that react at the electrodes. Some
examples of impurities used as electrolytes in various types of fuel cells include ... Show more

This method very useful aboard spacecrafts allowing them to stay in space for a longer amount of
time because they can create their own water. The next most common type is molten carbonate the
electrolyte in this is carbonate salts. However this type of fuel cell tends to be slightly less efficient
due to the fact that they have to be melted before they can be used. Having a liquid electrolyte can
be difficult to handle and time consuming. It is however useful seeing as it refreshes the electrolyte
through every cycle.
The last form of fuel cells available is PEM (or Proton Exchange Membrane). The electrolyte for

Many of these also contain a high level of protein, which athletes need to perform well. Protein is
large molecules composed of one or more chains of amino acids (sugar) in a specific order

because the sports drink provides energy and prevents dehydration. Theses drinks are high in
Carbohydrates which, are vital in keeping the high energy of your body especially when you are
playing sports or exercising. During these circumstances, you need to keep your carbohydrate levels
high in your system to maximize your performance. Drinking these beverages can also help adults

ELECTROPLATING
Electroplating is the application of electrolytic cells in which a thin layer of metal is deposited onto
an electrically conductive surface.
Electroplating is a plating process that uses electrical current to reduce cat ions of a desired material
from a solution and coat a conductive object with a thin layer of the material, such as a metal.
Electroplating is primarily used for depositing a layer of material to bestow a desired property (e.g.,
abrasion and wear resistance, corrosion protection, lubricity, aesthetic qualities, etc.) to a surface
that otherwise lacks that property. Another application uses electroplating to build up thickness on
undersized parts.
The process used in electroplating is called ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The anode is connected to the positive terminal of the supply, and the cathode (article to be plated)
is connected to the negative terminal. When the external power supply is switched on, the metal at
the anode is oxidized from the zero valence state to form cations with a positive charge. These
cations associate with the anions in the solution. The cations are reduced at the cathode to deposit in
the metallic, zero valence state. For example, in an acid solution, copper is oxidized at the anode to
Cu2+ by losing two electrons. The Cu2+ associates with the anion SO42– in the solution to form
copper sulfate. At the cathode, the Cu2+ is reduced to metallic copper by gaining two electrons. The
result is the effective transfer of copper from the anode source to a plate covering the cathode.
The plating is most commonly a single metallic element, not an alloy. However, some alloys can be
electrodeposited, notably brass and solder.
Many plating baths include cyanides of other metals (e.g., potassium cyanide) in addition to

Produce too much sweat could have a significant loss of fluid and electrolytes in the body such as
potassium and calcium. This can cause symptoms from fatigue and reduction in exercise
performance to more serious conditions such as heat exhaustion or heat stroke (Leong, 2007).
Drinking water after exercise helps to restore water balance in the body. Drinking sport drink, which
contain sugar and electrolytes, can replace the electrolytes that loss in the body. Nerve and muscle
contraction can be measured by monitoring changes in reaction time to find the effect of sport drink.

Finally, compare the all data that was recorded. When measuring the reaction time, first, ask the
subject to place his or her finger and thumb approximately 2 cm apart. Next, hold a 30 cm ruler
vertically between the thumb and forefinger of the subject. The lower end should be even with the
top of the thumb and forefinger. After that, drop the ruler. Finally, measure the distance the ruler
falls before being caught between the subject's thumb and forefinger. Repeat the procedure for the
left hand (handout homeostasis).
Result
When two people run up and down the basketball court for 10 minutes, they were sweating. The
body also loss much fluid, sugar and electrolytes. After running, their reaction time are similar,
around 21,7 – 35,7. Next, one person drink 200 ml of Gatorade and another person drink 200 ml of

18. Dehydration
Water makes up more than half of the human body and is required for our cell systems to properly
perform their necessary functions. Dehydration occurs when more water is lost than what is being
taken in. Making sure we have the proper amount of fluids in our cells is vital to ensuring our bodies
are able to properly perform their essentially necessary functions. Water acts like a cleanser, helping
with the removal of harmful waste and possible deadly toxins. Our blood, which is made primarily
of water, is responsible for carrying many nutrients to nearby waiting cells. Our immune system,
which contains a fluid called lymph, is also made of water. If our immune system is affected by
dehydration, it stops working properly and our body ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Our bodies can obtain water from most foods or liquids we consume, but pure water is best. Alcohol
is known to affect the levels of hydration within human cells through its diuretic effects. The more
alcohol an individual consumes, the more water is removed from the body through the individuals
frequent need to urinate. Caffeine is also a known diuretic, but its effects on hydration levels are
believed to be minimal.
The symptoms of dehydration vary from person to person, with factors such as age and weight
playing a role in how a person responds to the effects dehydration on their individual body. Adults
will respond differently to the symptoms of dehydration than children will. When children and
infants become sick they may suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, or increased urination, therefore their
bodies require their electrolyte levels be restored in an attempt to prevent the effects of dehydration.
Drinks such as Pedialyte are infused with sodium and potassium, much like many sports drinks are
higher in electrolytes than pure water. The major difference between electrolyte juices such as

20. Uses and Precautions when Administering Mannitol Essay
Mannitol
Mannitol can be truly useful in the clinical setting as a diagnostic agent, osmotic diuretic and urinary
irrigant. Mannitol's chemical class is hexahydroxy alcohol and it is a pregnancy category B drug.
Mannitol is a six–carbon sugar and is known by the generic name of mannitol or Osmitrol, which is
the most common brand name. Mannitol is usually available in 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%
injection form. Mannitol is considered a diuretic which promotes urine production. It is also helpful
in preventing the kidney from shutting down. It increases osmotic pressure of the glomerular filtrate,
inhibiting reabsorption of water and electrolytes and creates an osmotic gradient in the glomerular
filtrate and blood (Lippincott Williams & ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (2008) describe the absorption to be administered though I.V. which
will result in a rapid distribution that remains in the cell; it is vaguely metabolized and effortlessly
filtered by the glomeruli. It is crucial to point that mannitol crosses the placenta and may enter into
the breast milk in female patients. Mannitol is usually excreted primarily in urine.
As stated by Ronco, C., Bellomo, R., & Kellum, J. A. (2009), osmotic diuretics like mannitol are
distributed rapidly withdrawing water from the intracellular space. As a result, headache, vomiting,
and nausea are the most common side effects in patients. If mannitol is used in excess without
appropriate water intake it can result in critical dehydration. As mannitol withdraws water from the
cells, hydrogen and potassium ions raise causing hypokalemic acidosis. Other possible adverse
effects of mannitol are as follow: confusion, disorientation, dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope,
vertigo, gastric disturbances, hypernatremia, dehydration, circulatory overload, thrombophlebitis,
hypotension, hypertension, edema, tachycardia, chest pain, diuresis and pulmonary congestion

Abstract
In order to decrease the number of cycles of infiltration and maintain a comparable cathode
performance, the viability of using a conductive LSF–YSZ composite scaffold with one infiltration
cycle of LSCF was investigated. XRD patterns of LSF–YSZ powder presented that at 1400oC and
1300oC calcination, an obvious shift in LSF peak occurred, indicating Zr doping into LSF and
forming a less conductive phase. Different ratios of LSF–YSZ scaffolds were tested by impedance
spectroscopy with the results showing that the ohmic resistance decreases as the amount of LSF
increases, and 1350oC scaffold has a much lower ohmic resistance than the 1400oC one. A pure
YSZ cell infiltrated with 35 wt% LSCF was used as reference and by comparing it with a cell
composed of 70:30 LSF–YSZ scaffold calcined at 1350oC with one cycle of LSCF infiltration, a
comparable cell performance both in ohmic and non–ohmic parts was achieved.

disperse uniformly through the solvent.There are electrolytes in sports drinks which athletes drink
which helps their body because the body depends on the electrolytes to control the cell membrane
stability and carry electrical charges.

If someone doesn't have enough electrolytes in their system then they can't function. Electrolytes are
important because they are what certain cells–such as nerve, heart, and muscle– use to sustain
voltages across their cell membranes. They are also what cells use to carry electrical impulses, as in
nerve impulses and muscle contractions, across themselves and to other cells. Kidneys work to keep
the electrolyte concentration in blood constant in spite of changes in the body. Again, when
exercising, the body loses most electrolytes in the sweat; sports drinks which contain sodium
chloride or potassium chloride are consumed after the workout to provide the body with the energy
it just lost. They also contain added sugar and flavorings to the drinks to give extra energy and to
make the drink taste better. People also drink other drinks after a workout because they feel that it
obtains the energy more effectively.
Sports drinks are used to receive energy while doing an active, or athletic, event. There are three
popular types of sports drinks: isotonic (average athlete), hypotonic (low–perspiration athletes;

electrolytes found in the body include Calcium, Phosphorous, Chloride and Magnesium.
Electrolytes are what allow a cell to do miscellaneous necessities, such as generating energy,

38. Anaerobic Respiration In Sports Drinks
Sports drinks are used to rehydrate athletes during and after exercise. However, the efficiency of
these electrolyte drinks has been questioned.
During respiration glucose from food is added to oxygen to form ATP,C02, and H20. During
exercise, glucose and oxygen are used at a much faster rate due to increased muscle contractions.
There are two types of respiration; aerobic and anaerobic. During aerobic respiration,glucose is
added to oxygen to produce CO2,H20, and 38 ATP molecules. However, during high–intensity
exercise,the oxygen supply is less than the demand. Because of this, anaerobic respiration takes
over. This type of respiration can occur without oxygen, however ,it only produces 2 ATP molecules

Before exercise, the cell and its surroundings are in an isotonic state.This means that there is the
same amount of water and molecules on both sides of the membrane. During exercise,water is lost at
a faster rate through perspiration. Therefore, the cell goes into a hypotonic state, which means that
the water rushes into the cell via osmosis; the movement of water from an area of high to low
concentration. The majority of sports drinks are isotonic. Some scientists argue that the isotonic
state of sports drinks renders them ineffective in regards to cellular hydration. It has been argued
that because water isn't entering the cell during an isotonic state,performance is impaired due to
improper cellular hydration. It should be noted that sports drink consumption after exercise is
detrimental. After exercise,glucose demand slows down. When the supply of glucose from sports
drinks is greater than the demand,it is eventually converted to fat via lipogenesis. In addition to the
negative effects of sports drinks, it is also important to take into consideration, the fact that
glucose/electrolyte requirements and sport drink ingredients will vary. Therefore,while one sports
drink could improve performance for one person, it could be ineffective for someone else. Also,sport

What role does each of the selected electrolytes play in cellular function and fluid balance?
Magnesium ( 1.8–2.4mEq/L) helps in maintaining a normal muscle and nerve function, it also helps
with regulation cardiac rhythm and it is involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis.
Calcium (8–10 mg/dl). helps with nerve transmission, cardiac excitability and muscular contraction

42. Describe The Importance Of Electrolytes
Electrolytes are very important to have in the human body. It is very unhealthy to have an imbalance
of electrolytes. Electrolyte imbalance may lead to disease or even death. ( Nate Morrow )
Salt is a very important electrolyte. Humans need salt to survive on the planet of Earth. Salt can also
be called sodium. Low sodium levels are very dangerous. People with diseases are at higher risk of a
low sodium level.Another important electrolyte is magnesium. Magnesium is important for 300
biochemical reactions! Also an important electrolyte is phosphate. Phosphate strengthens bones and
teeth. Bicarbonate is also one of the major electrolytes. Kidneys release bicarbonate when acids
build up through metabolic processes. Also, potassium is a key electrolyte. Potassium is important
for regulating your heartbeat and muscle function. ( U.S National Library of Medicine ) It is also
important to keep your electrolytes balanced. Electrolyte loss is very dangerous. Water does not
replenish the electrolytes lost in sweat. Most sports drinks claim to replenish electrolytes lost in
sweat. Although, not all beverages are made to hydrate, so be aware on which sports drink you
choose next. Hydration is also crucial to live a healthy life. Dehydration can cause electrolyte
imbalance. Electrolyte imbalance symptoms include twitching, weakness, and seizures. ( Healthline

electrolytes. ((Www.Zaneray.Com), 2014) Sports drinks contain ingredients which have raised
health concerns. The main ingredients in sports drinks are glucose, sucrose, and fructose or high–
fructose corn syrup. (Insidetracker.com, 2012) Gatorade's Glacier Cherry Perform drink, contain 41g
of sugar per serving, which is equivalent to 10 teaspoons of sugar. (Griffith–Greene, 2014) Although
sugar is necessary for the drink to taste good, sugar can have long term effects on your health. Too
much sugar can over time lead to diabetes, high blood pressure and weight gain. (Hagy, 2007) As
well as sugar, the acidity in sports drinks can dissolve teeth. These drinks are often full of sugar and
sodium, which cling to the teeth, and eat away the protective enamel. People, who is drinking sports

55. Taking a Look at Sports Drinks
Sports drinks are drinks consumed by athletes and professional sports men and woman to rehydrate
and replace energy. Sports drinks contain varying levels of fluid, electrolytes and carbohydrate
which all play a role in rehydrating and replenishing the body after strenuous physical activity.
There are three types of sports drinks on the market; isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic. Isotonic
drinks provide the athlete with fast fluid replacement which was lost by sweat, these drinks provide
a boost of carbohydrate, this type of drink is the most preferred by athletes as these contain glucose
which is the body's preferred source of energy. Hypotonic drinks are the same as isotonic but don't
contain the carbohydrates this is ideal for athletes who want fast hydration but don't need the energy
boost. Hypertonic sports drinks are said after exercise to top up muscle glycogen stores using
carbohydrates. The thing that all these different types of sports drinks have In common is that they
are designed to improve or maintain athletic performance, and prolong dehydration. The isotonic
and hypotonic drinks both contain electrolytes potassium and sodium; electrolytes are very
important in the body with many functions.

59. Chromium Plating Research Paper
Due to the industrial restrictions in place across some the main areas of the world under health and
safety regulations, finding an alternative plating process to the current hexavalent chromium process
has become a real necessity. Trivalent chromium has proved to be a suitable replacement due to
being less toxic, both health–wise and environmentally, whilst also demonstrating almost identical
metal finishes to those of the hexavalent chromium deposits. However, the trivalent chromium
chemical process is not without its difficulties, such as the inertness of the Cr3+ ions to be reduced
to their metallic state, or the initial inferiority of the metal deposits physical properties in
comparison to the deposits attained from conventional techniques. In order to overcome these issues
multiple approaches have been investigated.
It has been found that the use of complexing agents in the trivalent chromium electrolyte solution
work to generate stable complexes with Cr3+ through ligand exchange which are then easily
reducible to metallic chromium. Not only does this now allow chromium deposition to take place,
but it also improves the current efficiency of the electrodeposit. The process of co–depositing
chromium as an alloy with other metals has shown to enhance the physical and chemical properties
of the metal as opposed to individual electrodepositions; an ability that is unattainable for

epidemic" in this country, especially in regards to children, and how too many people eat too much
sugar and this leads to major health problems like obesity and diabetes. I and many others use these
beverages to refuel from an activity and feel more hydrated or just to enjoy, so I wanted to test these
products and other beverages to determine which of the beverages contain the highest concentration
of electrolytes. The purpose of this project is to see if there is the ability to gain enough electrolytes
without the need to use a beverage with high sugar/calorie content.
Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the beverages with the most electrolytes would have the least
amount of calories and the beverages with the least electrolytes will have the most calories because
calories in beverages are usually from sugar while electrolytes are made up of salt, calcium,
potassium. I think this because usually when something is salty (what electrolytes are made of) it
would be less sugary (what calories are made of) and vice versa.

Nutrient Content When it comes to water out of the tap or the basic water bottle there isn't much to it
when it comes to nutrient content. It is made up of zero calories while having some sodium as a
natural electrolyte. This is why for the most part a person can drink as much water as they want.
Gatorade on the other hand at a serving size of 8 ounces is 63 calories. The calories are mostly made
up of added sugar at 13 grams. However, it does give more of a recharge of electrolytes with 95mg
of sodium which makes it a great beverage for hydrating directly after or during a workout.

heat through evaporation. This characteristic has an important role in the physiology of thermo–

this heat is not dissipated, the body will suffer. Fortunately, the human body has several mechanisms
to remove heat. One of them is based on the presence of water and it involves changing water from

Compounds that contained a metal with a higher change had a higher conductivity. As you move to
the right along the periodic table, the metals get more and more conductive, and then conductivity
drops off as soon as you get to metalloids and then nonmetals. For an element to conduct electricity,
it must contain electrons that are free to move [1], and as you move to the right through the metals,
the number of these electrons increases. The conductivity values for DI and tap water are much
lower than the conductivity of the compounds, and this is due to less concentration of ions in the
water.

77. Electrolytes: Ionic Bond and Sodium Chloride Essay
Week #2 Post Lab
1.) Define the following: electrolyte, nonelectrolyte
Electrolyte: A substance that dissolves in water to form solutions that conduct electricity.
Nonelectrolyte: A compound that doesn't dissociate into ions when dissolved in water.
2.) Using examples in the last link, draw beakers showing atomic scale representations of aqueous
solutions of the following compounds. Classify each as an electrolyte or nonelectrolyte. * Ba(OH)2
(aq)
* NH3 (aq)
* C3H7OH (aq)
* NaHCO3 (aq)
3.) Why would it be important to use de–ionized water when preparing the aqueous solutions in this
experiment?
It is important to use de–ionized water in this experiment because you don't want the electrolytes in
the water to ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
7) Although water is a poor conductor of electricity, we are cautioned not to operate electrical
appliances around water. Why?
Water itself does not conduct electricity very efficiently, but contains trace elements (i.e. sodium)
that do contain electrolytes.
Week 2: Bright Ideas
1) Evidence: What is the evidence that leads to a claim?
This section focuses on the analysis of your data. Draw a copy of the flow chart you made in class
and attach it to your post laboratory assignments. 2) Claim: Based on the data, what is the answer to
the key question?
Write a sentence or two that answers the key question based on the evidence (it does not have to be
the "right answer" to get full credit but it does have to be supported by the data).
The reason the light bulb would light up was because of the strong electrolytes in the ionic bonds.
During the experiment, it was mostly the ionic compounds that were lighting up the light bulb while
the covalent compounds did not.
78. 3) Reading: How do the ideas developed in the lab compare with other scientist' ideas? Start by
reading pgs 2–5 given to you in class as well one other source containing related information (like a
textbook or educational internet site). How does the flow chart you made during the experiment
compare and contrast to the flow chart on pg 5? The flow chart on page 5 was more in–depth than
mine. The chart

80. Fluid And Electrolyte Shifts During Health Adult Marathon...
Fluid & Electrolyte Shifts in Health Adult Marathon Runner
It is evident that healthy adults running a marathon that replaces with only free water will run into
pathophysiology challenges that will affect performance. Adequate fluid intake is crucial for
prolonged, strenuous exercises to maintain adequate hydration, thermoregulation, maintain plasma
volume and avoid dehydration (Duvillard et al, 2004). Although athletes are prone to hydrate as
much as they can during extensive marathons, research shows that fluid replacement with only free
water or even hypotonic beverages can be detrimental.
Marathon runners put their body through great physical challenges, but in order to prevent
physiologic harm, the normal fluid and electrolyte status of an adult marathon runner is important to
know. For a normal adult male, the total body water (TBW) in relation to body weight is about 60%,
and in females, the percentage is 50 (McCance, 2010). About two thirds of the TBW resides in the
intracellular fluid (ICF), in other words blood, and the rest of the TBW remains in the extracellular
fluid (ECF), interstitial and intravascular (McCance, 2010). Depending on the age, sex, percent of
body fat and exercise status, the TBW will vary among individuals, which is very important in
considering the manifestations of fluid replacement in marathon running (Duvillard et al, 2004).
Electrolyte balance is also a crucial aspect in maintaining homeostasis in the body. According to
McCance, the
