Yes, because chemical properties of sodium and potassium ions are nearly same.

Is potassium chloride used as substitute for sodium chloride?
This is a loose question. Since the most well known use for salt is in human diet, we could start an answer in this context. To replace dietary sodium chloride salt completely with potassium could well have fatal effects. Sodium chloride is essential for the function of the nervous system. However a high sodium (ion) intake can also be fatal. In the last few years, low sodium (ion) salts have been marketed. These might have as little 35% of the sodium of typical sodium chloride table salt, the substitute for the missing sodium is sometimes purely potassium chloride and sometimes potassium with some magnesium.
How many moles of silver chromate could be formed from 50.00ml of 0.0500m silver nitrate solution and 100.00ml of 0.0600m potassium chromate solution?
Ag+ = 50 x 0.05 = 2.5 millimoles CrO4^2- = 100 x 0.06 = 6 millimoles Ag2CrO4 moles = 1.25 x 10^-3 moles formed.
Could sodium chloride and potassium nitrate be separated using extraction?
Extraction has no meaning as a specific, particular process. The question makes no sense.
What metal can displace sodium metal from sodium chloride?
You could use potassium, rubidium or caesium. However, there is no practical reason why you would do this. You'd have to do it in the melt, which would be hazardous, as all these metals react with water.
Is sodium used as a salt substitute?
PURE SODIUM will blow your face off. Na+H2O=explosion. Pure sodium is also very soft, and needs to be stabily kept in kerosene. A good substitute for NaCl(sodium chloride, also known as table salt) is NaK-Sodium potassium. The funniest thing about soduim and chlorine is one is a yellow gas that will choke you to death, while the other dropped in water will cause huge explosions. Also, DO NOT TRY TO MAKE YOUR OWN SALT. The reaction could burn you seriously, or an uncontrolled chlorine leak will kill you. The short answer is 'no' -- sodium is a component of salt. What we commonly think of as 'table salt' -- the stuff on french fries that makes them taste, well, salty -- is sodium chloride, or NaCl. When sodium molecules meet chlorine molecules, they form edible salt. The most common 'salt substitute' is potassium chloride, or KCl, which, you might notice, is just like table salt except that it's potassium and chlorine instead of sodium and chlorine.
Can sodium chloride be used to make soap instead of lye?
No, because sodium chloride isn't alkaline; you could use sodium hydroxide instead of potassium hydroxide (lye) but sodium chloride wouldn't work very well.
Will lithium hydroxide and sodium chromate react?
No, lithium hydroxide and sodium chromate will not react with each other. They are both ionic compounds and do not have any shared ions that could undergo a chemical reaction.
How to deal with high blood pressure and high potassium?
Many 'lite salt' products use a potassium salt instead of a sodium salt, and you are correct: your husband should not use these as his potassium levels could rise too high.
What is papadkhar- an ingredient used in making Indian papads?
it could be sodium bicarbonate or potassium carbonate or sodium benzoate.

Which metal element reacts explosively with water?
Lithium, sodium, potassium. rubidium, cesium, francium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium all react with varying degree of vigor with water to produce hydrogen gas. Other metals also will but not as vigorously.
Where could you find nitrogen in solids?
For example in nitrates as: sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate, uranyl nitrate, ammonium nitrate, etc.
Sodium and potassium are found mostly in what part of the body?
Sodium and potassium are two very important micronutrients of the body. They are present in every cells of the body, Sodium (Na), normally outside the cells (in the extra-cellular fluid) and Potassium (K), normally inside the cell (in the cytoplasm) . By changing the balance of which of them are in a greater percentage inside and outside the cells , they are able to create membrane potential, which are necessary for the nerve impulses. (See sodium/potassium pumps, please) They are also electrolytes, maintaining the body's proper fluid balance. More info could be find on related links.
Which metal is preserved in kerosine?
sodium and potassium are kept under kerosene surface to protect them from rust since the are very active elements and react with O as soon as being exposed to it.
Is eating too much baking soda bad for your health?
Its high in sodium. High amounts of sodium can elevate blood pressure. Potassium bicarbonate could be used in place of baken soda. It is often sold by home brewing stores to reduce the acidity of wines. Too much potassium could be dangerous to people with kidney problems.
