What is reducing the amount of calcium and magnesium the water?

Reducing calcium and magnesium in the water is known as water softening. A water softener uses a carbon filtration system.


What is the concentration of chloride ion in a 2.0M solution of calcium chloride?

CaCL2 on its own cannot have a concentration. It would have to be dissolved in a solution first. Then, from the amount of CaCl2 which is dissolved in a certain amount of a solute (such as water), you would be able to figure out the concentration.

How do I explain this hypothesis 'The higher the amount of calcium hydroxide added the more the pH will increase'?

Calcium hydroxide has a low solubility in water yet if the concentration of hydroxyl ions increase the pH increase.


What is hardness in relation to water quality?

Hardness of water pretains to the concentration of minerals and other trace elements in your local water supply. Well water-such in my area is "very hard"-meaning it contains a large amount of iron and other minerals-when boiled down in a pot of the water on your stove-it will leave a deposit on the pan once the water has boiled away. A water softener helps filter out these particles.


What affects the concentration of sodium in the blood?

The concentration of sodium in the blood plasma depends on two things: the total amount of sodium and water in arteries, veins, and capillaries


The amount of neurotransmitter released at a synapse is controlled by?

The amount of calcium ions which come into the axon terminal after an action potential arrives, which depends in part upon the concentration of calcium ions inside and outside the neuron, and also upon the amplitude and shape of the arriving action potential (short duration AP spend less time above the Ca ion gate activation threshold, resulting in fewer gates being opened, therefore less Ca allowed in).


What would you expect to happen to a resting skeletal muscle if the sarcolemma suddenly became very permeable to calcium ions?

Because the amount of cross-bridge formation is proportional to the amount of available calcium ions, increased permeability of the sarcolemma to Ca2+ would lead to an increased intracellular concentration of Ca2+ and a greater degree of contraction.


What is the amount in an object or substance?

The amount [of stuff] in an object or substance is its mass.


What is the measurement of the amount of calcium and magnesium which water contains?

The amount of calcium and magnesium in water determines its hardness.


What is the term for The amount of a solute per amount of solvent?

The term for "the amount of solute dissolved in a given volume of solution" is "concentration"


Is a concentration of a chemical in a solution the same as the density?

No, they are very different properties. But the density depends on concentration for solutions. Density is the ratio mass/volume. Concentration is the amount of an element (or compound) in a given mass (or volume) of an another compound or mixture.
