what is Potassium

Potassium is a mineral essential to maintain proper health On the Periodic Table of the Elements Potassium has the atomic number of 19 and atomic symbol of K It was first isolated by Sir Humphry Davy in 1807 It is a soft metal that can easily be cut by a knife Potassium is one of the most highly reactive metals and rarely used alone However combined with many other elements such as sodium or chloride it forms compounds which can be found in many common items such as glass soap and fertilizer Potassium is probably best known as an important nutrient It can be found in a variety of foods from bananas apples broccoli and peas to whole grains nuts flounder and salmon Potassium one of the main electrolytes is an essential element in the basic everyday workings of the body It plays a role in muscle growth and contractions nerve cell function and protein synthesis Along with another eloctrolyte sodium it also helps to to regulate the water balance in and outside of the cell A lack of potassium most commonly will cause fatigue or muscle cramps but a severe potassium deficiency or hypokalemia can cause serious problems such irregular heart function nervous system impairment and even death Hypokalemia is usually caused by gastrointestinal problems such as diarrhea or vomiting or by the use of diuretics to treat other conditions As potassium is regulated by the kidneys a renal condition could also affect the amount of potassium in the body It is more unusual to have elevated levels of potassium called hyperkalemia as any excessive amounts will removed by the kidneys and excreted through urine Usually hyperkalemia will be caused by a medical condition such as a major infection or renal impairment and could affect cardiac function as well There is no specific RDA for potassium but a healthy individual who eats the recommended fruits and vegetables should get a sufficient amount 1 medium banana contains Calories 108 56 Calories from Fat 5 1 Fat 0 566g Carbohydrate 27 65g Fiber

Mmmm delicious corrosive Potassium Oxide K20

quot <a href= http en wikipedia org wiki Potassium oxide >Potassium oxide< a> is a compound of potassium and oxygen used mainly as an intermediate in inorganic synthesis It is formed by reacting metallic potassium with a limited supply of oxygen This is done by only oxidizing a small portion of the metal with dry air at a time to prevent peroxide formation Potassium oxide can also be synthesized by heating appropriate quantities of potassium nitrate with metallic potassium in a vacuum As the potassium nitrate is heated it decomposes into potassium nitrite and oxygen In this manner the amount of oxygen produced can be carefully controlled and an intimate mixture of the two reagents ensures that the oxygen will react evenly with the potassium In both cases an excess of potassium is used and is subsequently vacuum distilled at high temperatures to separate it from the potassium oxide quot Probably the best part of this clever marketing campaign from Kellogg s in terms of naming a quot Protein Water quot K2O quot Potassium oxide is a very basic oxide and reacts with water violently to produce the caustic potassium hydroxide It is deliquescent in air and will absorb water from the atmosphere initiating this vigorous reaction <b>It is therefore both toxic and corrosive to human tissue < b> quot But then again this is <i>SPECIAL< i> K20 so maybe it won t tear through your GI tract

Potassium

He was a physicist more precisely an astrophysicist diligent and eager but without illusions the Truth lay beyond inaccessible to our telescopes accessible to the initiates This was a long road which he was traveling with effort wonderment and profound joy Physics was prose elegant gymnastics for the mind mirror of Creation the key to man s dominion over the planet but what is the stature of Creation of man and the planet His road was long and he had barely started up it but I was his disciple did I want to follow him Primo Levi <i>The Periodic Table< i> Chapter 5 Potassium

NIF Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate Crystal

The <a href= https lasers llnl gov >National Ignition Facility< a> at <a href= https www llnl gov >Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory< a> requires optics produced from large single crystals of potassium dihydrogen phosphate KDP and deuterated potassium dihydrogen phosphate DKDP Each crystal is sliced into 40 centimeter square crystal plates Traditionally DKDP has been produced by methods requiring approximately two years to grow a single crystal With the development of rapid growth methods for KDP the time required to grow a crystal has been reduced to just two months Process improvements at Livermore have doubled the potential yield of optics from each rapid growth KDP crystal The current rapid growth process produces optics that are up to 66cm 2 ft 2 in wide 50cm 1 ft 8 in tall and weighing 380 kilograms 840 lbs NIF requires 192 optics produced from traditionally grown DKDP and 480 optics rapidly grown from KDP Approximately 75 production crystals will have been grown totaling a weight of nearly 100 tons
