What is the difference between plain potassium pills and potassium gluconate pills?

In practicality, none. It is fairly simple chemistry. Potassim (K) typically does not just exist naturally as itself. It is usually is bonded with some other elements or substance. In the case of Potassium Pills, it is bonded with chloride and you get KCl. Potassium Gluconate just uses a a gluconate molecule instead of a Cl to bind it to. You may compare this to Na Cl or Sodium Chloride (Table Salt). You never eat sodium alone, it is always in combination with Chloride. The reason in short is that when Potassium is combined with another chemical it becomes charged positive (K+) and this is useful for your body. Any supplement you buy that contains Potassium, whether it be Potassium Gluconate or Potassium Chloride, are most often the same.

Why is potassium iodide used in iodometric titrations instead of sodium iodide?

I would guess that this is so because of potassium's mass, being much more than, sodium's molar mass per ion. So can sodium iodide be used instead of potassium iodide? Perhaps, but maybe not to the same level effectiveness. Potassium molecules have been known to dissolve better than sodium molecules. One example is Potassium Chloride and Sodium Chloride thanks


Potassium 595mg equals how many potassium meq?

how many meq's is 595 mg of potassium gluconate in pill form? _____________ You seem to be asking how translate a dose of potassium chloride, which is often expressed as mEq's when prescribed as a drug, into an equivalent dose of potassium in supplemental potassium gluconate, which is generally expressed in mg. 595 mg of potassium gluconate contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride also contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride is about 2.54 mEq That said, the potassium in potassium gluconate is more easily absorbed by the body than is the potassium in potassium chloride, so seeking the equivalent elemental potassium dosage may not be what you want as it may produce different effects in the body. For example, my mother had been prescribed 20mEq of potassium chloride by her doctor, which contains 781.960 mg of elemental potassium. The large pills were hard for her to swallow. Instead i gave her about 1/4 teaspoon of powered potassium gluconate mixed in a glass of water, which contained only about 135 mg elemental potassium, about the same contained in 3.5 mEq of potassium chloride. That was less than a fifth the amount prescribed by her doctor, yet her potassium levels in her blood tests were just fine.

Can potassium chloride be used in lieu of sodium chloride in salt water pool systems?

There is a system available now that uses a mixture of Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride instead of the old Potassium chloride we have been using it in our pool for about 5 months and the results are great Ive never seen the water as good without any problems whatsoever. I am not sure however if the electrodes need to be different in the chlorine generator to do what you are thinking of. The system I am talking about is called Magnablu. It is originally German but was handled handled by Poolrite in Australia. Poolrite Autralia however has gone to the wall and I don't know who took this part of their business over. Dragonfly.biz had dealings with them and may perhaps be able to help.
