  2. Sodium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium

    Sodium chloride (NaCl) contains approximately 39.34% of elemental sodium (Na) the total mass. This means that 1 gram of sodium chloride contains approximately 393.4 mg of elemental sodium. [94] For example, to find out how much sodium chloride contains 1500 mg of elemental sodium (the value of 1500 mg sodium is the adequate intake (AI) for an ...

  3. Amount of substance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amount_of_substance

    The molar mass of a substance depends not only on its molecular formula, but also on the distribution of isotopes of each chemical element present in it. For example, the molar mass of calcium-40 is 39.962 590 98 (22) g/mol, whereas the molar mass of calcium-42 is 41.958 618 01 (27) g/mol, and of calcium with the normal isotopic mix is 40.078(4 ...

  4. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    In chemistry, the molar mass (M) (sometimes called molecular weight or formula weight, but see related quantities for usage) of a chemical compound is defined as the ratio between the mass and the amount of substance (measured in moles) of any sample of the compound. [1] The molar mass is a bulk, not molecular, property of a substance.

  5. Sodium–potassium alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium–potassium_alloy

    NaK containing 40% to 90% potassium by mass is liquid at room temperature.The eutectic mixture consists of 77% potassium and 23% sodium by mass (NaK-77), and it is a liquid from −12.6 to 785 °C (9.3 to 1,445.0 °F), and has a density of 0.866 g/cm 3 at 21 °C (70 °F) and 0.855 g/cm 3 at 100 °C (212 °F), making it less dense than water.

  6. Potassium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium

    The ion transport system moves potassium across the cell membrane using two mechanisms. One is active and pumps sodium out of, and potassium into, the cell. The other is passive and allows potassium to leak out of the cell. Potassium and sodium cations influence fluid distribution between intracellular and extracellular compartments by osmotic ...

  7. Dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_constant

    In chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, a dissociation constant (K D) is a specific type of equilibrium constant that measures the propensity of a larger object to separate (dissociate) reversibly into smaller components, as when a complex falls apart into its component molecules, or when a salt splits up into its component ions.

  8. Graphite intercalation compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite_intercalation...

    The materials have the formula (guest)C n where n ≥ 6. The insertion of the guests increases the distance between the carbon sheets. Common guests are reducing agents such as alkali metals. Strong oxidants also intercalate into graphite. Intercalation involves electron transfer into or out of the carbon sheets. So, in some sense, graphite ...

  9. Equilibrium constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_constant

    This equation can be used to calculate the value of log K at a temperature, T 2, knowing the value at temperature T 1. The van 't Hoff equation also shows that, for an exothermic reaction ( Δ H < 0 {\displaystyle \Delta H<0} ), when temperature increases K decreases and when temperature decreases K increases, in accordance with Le Chatelier's ...
