Adsorption When a solid surface is exposed to gas or liquid molecules then gas or liquid molecules accumulate at the surface it is called adsorption. The substance that deposits at the surface is called adsorbate. And the solid on whose surface the adsorption occurs is called adsorbent. Attachment of Particle The solid particles have more compact molecules than liquid or gases. So, it acts as a foundation in adsorption for liquid or gas particles. On surface they can join by the following ways Ionic bonding  Physical interactions Chemical Interaction Difference between adsorption and absorption    Adsorption means deposition on surface only while absorption means penetration into the body of solid. Types of adsorption Adsorption fundamentally divided into two main categories 1. Physical Adsorption It is the interaction of liquid or gas particles with solid particles surface and there is physical characteristics are involved Example Many drugs are absorbed from GIT and sk...

Electrolyte balance

Electrolytes of body Electrolyte s are minerals in your blood and other body fluids that carry an electric charge Electrolytes affect the amount of water in your body, the acidity of your blood (p), your muscle function, and other important processes You lose electrolytes when you sweat You replace them by drinking fluids.   Common electrolytes include: Calcium Phosphorous  Chloride Potassium Magnesium Sodium ELECTROLYTE BALANCE kokookoo Electrolyte balance, or salt balance, is necessary in controlling fluid movements within the body Salts are lost in perspiration, urine, feces and may be lost excessively in diarrhea, vomiting and sweating.

Sodium: The predominant positive ion (cation) in fluid outside of cells is sodium. Na+ is the chemical symbol for sodium. Table salt is what is produced when chloride is added. U...
