    outside the cell and concentrated potassium exists inside the cell. When nerve cells are stimulated, sodium passes into the cell and a negative electrical charge is created. The electrical travels to a muscle cell which causes the muscle to contract. To maintain healthy intracellular charges, muscle contraction and fluid balance, a diet high in potassium is highly recommended. Fresh fruits and vegetables, grains, beans, whole milk and meat can help achieve a potassium-rich diet. Sodium and chloride

    The data show that salinity stress levels increased sodium and decreased potassium contents in the shoots and fruits of pepper plants which is a typical response of plants in saline environments arising from the inability of plants to distinguish between sodium and potassium ions (Storey et al., 1983). The increase in Na+ content mainly in the vacuole provides an osmotic adjustment of salt affected plants (Sakr et al., 2007). This accumulation might be due to the important role of sodium in increasing

    From the table four appropriate simple tests can be conducted in order to determine the structure type and identify the four white powders. This includes conducting tests of melting point, flame color, solubility and the conductivity in water (H20). The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which the material changes from a solid to a liquid state. The determination of melting points is a form of identification and test method for organic substance. The melting point is an easy way measure
