Notes

My guardian is displaying symptoms of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance, which can be serious if not addressed promptly, If I'm unable to convince my guardian to start eating or drinking, medical personnel would likely administer intravenous fluids containing electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and chloride. These fluids help to re-hydrate the body and restore the balance of essential minerals, In are easily digestible and gentle on the stomach, such as plain crackers, rice, or bananas. Electrolytes are crucial for various bodily functions, including, muscle function, nerve signaling, and maintaining proper hydration levels. 

Key Concept Terms:

Reactant: A substance that takes part in a chemical reaction.
Product: The substance that takes the result of a chemical reaction.
Rearrange Atoms, Molecules, Substance: Chemical reaction involves the rearrangement of atoms and molecules to form new substances with different properties.
Scale Model: A representation of an object or phenomenon at a smaller or large scale.
Melting and Boiling Points: The temperature at which a substance changes from solid to a liquid or from liquid to gas.
Property: Characteristics of a substance, such as color, density, or reactivity. New substances through the breaking and forming of chemical bonds between atoms, resulting in the creation of different Molecules with unique properties.


Extra Bonus: Ionic Bonds: Ionic Bonds are formed when one atom transfers electrons to another, resulting in the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions. Many pharmaceutical medications utilize elements from the periodic table that can form ionic bonds to create stable compounds with specific therapeutic effects.

Covalent Bonds: Covalent bonds occur when atoms share electrons, creating a strong bond between the atoms. Pharmaceutical medications also utilize Covalent bonds to form complex organic molecules with precise structures, allowing for targeted structures within the body.
