  2. Chromium(III) picolinate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_picolinate

    Chromium(III) picolinate (also trivalent chromium) is a chemical compound with the formula Cr(C 5 H 4 N(CO 2)) 3, commonly abbreviated as CrPic 3. It is a bright-red coordination compound derived from chromium (III) and picolinic acid .

  3. Dealkalization of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dealkalization_of_water

    Chloride cycle dealkalizers operate similar to sodium cycle cation water softeners. Like water softeners, dealkalizers contain ion-exchange resins that are regenerated with a concentrated salt solution - NaCl. In the case of a water softener, the cation exchange resin is exchanging sodium (the Na + ion of NaCl) for hardness minerals such as ...

  4. Water softening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

    Brine draw: Water is directed through a jet pump, which pulls salt water from the brine tank, before the water and brine pass through the resin bed in the normal direction, if co-current, or in the reverse direction, if counter-current. [11] The output of this typically thirty-minute process is discarded through the drain hose.

  5. Hazard symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazard_symbol

    Hazard symbols may vary in color, background, borders, or accompanying text to indicate specific dangers and levels of risk, such as toxicity classes. These symbols provide a quick, universally understandable visual warning that transcends language barriers, making them more effective than text-based warnings in many situations.

  6. Chromium(III) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_oxide

    It is used in paints, inks, and glasses. It is the colorant in "chrome green" and "institutional green." Chromium(III) oxide is a precursor to the magnetic pigment chromium dioxide, by the following reaction: [7] Cr 2 O 3 + 3 CrO 3 → 5 CrO 2 + O 2

  7. Chromium trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_trioxide

    Chromium trioxide is mainly used in chrome plating. It is typically employed with additives that affect the plating process but do not react with the trioxide. The trioxide reacts with cadmium, zinc, and other metals to generate passivating chromate films that resist corrosion. It is also used in the production of synthetic rubies.

  8. Water intoxication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_intoxication

    Water intoxication can be prevented if a person's intake of water does not grossly exceed their losses. Healthy kidneys can excrete approximately 800 millilitres to one litre of fluid water (0.84–1.04 quarts) per hour. [15] However, stress (from prolonged physical exertion), as well as disease states, can greatly reduce this amount. [15]

  9. Isolation tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_tank

    The tank is filled with 10 inches (25 cm) of water which contains enough dissolved Epsom salt to create a specific gravity of approximately 1.25–1.26, enabling a person to float freely with their face above the water. In order to reduce thermal sensations, the water in the float tank is maintained at approximately skin temperature, around 35 ...
