The concentration of ionic substances is important for the heart to beat. Your heart responds to electrical impulses that travel

through heart cells that are made up mostly of water. Which properties of ionic compounds are important to support this function?

Answer is: conductivity in solution  and solubility in water.

Ionic compounds conduct electricity, because it dissociate in ions and ions conduct electicity.

Ionic substances dissociate in water on cations and anions. For example, dissociation of potassium chloride in water: KCl(aq) → K⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

Ionic compounds (most of the salts, strong acids and bases) dissolve in water because an ion-dipole interactions.

An ion-dipole is electrostatic interaction between a charged ion (cations and anions) and a molecule that has a dipole (in this example water).

Dipole is a separation of positive and negative charges. In water, hydrogen has positive and oxygen has negative charge.

anastassius [24]
Injecting salt crystals over the ocean to grow cloud droplets has been proposed in efforts to make the clouds brighter thereby affecting the radiation budget. The light of the sun shines on Earth, some of that light is reflected by the clouds back to space and some of the light reaches the earth and warms our planet. The earth and the hot oceans emit infrared radiation (IR), which we feel as heat. That IR "light"; returns to space through the atmosphere. Most are trapped by greenhouse gases, which keep the earth warm. Soon after, the IR radiation returns to space. Scientists call this "energy budget of the Earth" this cycle of incoming and outgoing energy.

What factor affects both kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of an object is also measured in joules. Anything that is moving has kinetic energy, but various factors affect how much kinetic energy an object has. The first factor is speed. If two identical objects are moving at different speeds, the faster object has more kinetic energy.  In physics, the kinetic energy  of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.
