Why are electrolytes important in your body? Do you need to drink Gatorade to get them?

Chemistry
1 answer:
suter [353]4 years ago
3 0

<em>Electrolytes</em> are substances -minerals- that conduct electricity once they are dissolved in water. Some examples include Na⁺ (Sodium), Ca⁺² (Calcium), PO₄⁻³ (Phosphate) and Mg⁺² (Magnesium).

They are important because of the rols they play in our organism: The electrical charges they carry are what allow muscles to contract and nerve impulses to be transmitted. Without proper muscle contractions or nerve transmissions we would die.

We do not need to drink Gatorade to get electrolytes. It's true that sport drinks contain electrolytes, but those electrolytes can also come from different sources in our everyday diet, such as salt or fruits and vegetables.

If a 32.5 mL of a 15.1 M HCl solution was diluted to 3.25 L with water, what is the final concentration?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The final concentration is 0,151 M.

Explanation:

A dilution consists of the decrease of concentration of a substance in a solution (the higher the volume of the solvent, the lower the concentration).

We convert the unit of volume in L into ml: 3,25 x 1000= 3250 ml

We use the formula for dilutions:

C1 x V1 = C2 x V2

C2= (C1 xV1)/V2

C2= (32, 5 ml x 15, 1 M)/ 3250 ml

<em>C2=0,151 M</em>

1 Mothers ages 8 years more than twice her daughter's
Anit [1.1K]
<h3>♫ :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: // Hello There ! //  :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ♫</h3>

➷  We can use the information to form an equation, which we can solve later

M = 2x + 8

Simply substitute the daughter's age into x:

M = 2(56) + 8

Now solve:

M = 120

<h3><u>❄️</u></h3>

➶ Hope This Helps You!

➶ Good Luck (:

➶ Have A Great Day ^-^
