Question

Sodium (P) and Potassium (Q) are electrolytes in the fluid outside and inside your cells. The balance between these particles contributes to maintain your body’s energy. P combines with element with atomic number X 17 and forms compound PX, while Q combines with element with atomic number 8 Y and forms compound Q2Y. Find the atomicity and classify the compound PX and Q2Y​

Answer 1

Learning Objectives

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

• List the role of the six most important electrolytes in the body
• Name the disorders associated with abnormally high and low levels of the six electrolytes
• Identify the predominant extracellular anion
• Describe the role of aldosterone on the level of water in the body
• The body contains a large variety of ions, or electrolytes, which perform a variety of functions. Some ions assist in the transmission of electrical impulses along cell membranes in neurons and muscles. Other ions help to stabilize protein structures in enzymes. Still others aid in releasing hormones from endocrine glands. All of the ions in plasma contribute to the osmotic balance that controls the movement of water between cells and their environment.

Electrolytes in living systems include sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, calcium, phosphate, magnesium, copper, zinc, iron, manganese, molybdenum, copper, and chromium. In terms of body functioning, six electrolytes are most important: sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, calcium, and phosphate.
