Physical properties of potassium chloride

Chemical properties of potassium chloride

When it gets into water, potassium salt breaks down into its component ions.

KCl ↔ K+ + Cl—

The substance in question is capable of reacting with concentrated solutions of strong mineral acids and potassium perchlorate.

2KCl + H2SO4 (conc.) = K2SO4+ 2HCl↑

KCl + NaClO4= KClO4↓ + NaCl (t = 10 ˚C)

During the decomposition of the molten potassium salt, the formation of potassium is observed at the potassium cathode, and bubbles are observed at the chlorine anode. The substance turns into gas and evaporates.

2KCl = 2K + Cl2↑

Indications for use

The use of Potassium Chloride is indicated for:

• hypokalemia (including patients with diabetes mellitus , vomiting , prolonged diarrhea , as well as patients using glucocorticoids , some diuretics and antihypertensive drugs);
• prevention and treatment of paroxysmal tachycardia , glycoside intoxication , ectopic arrhythmias (in the acute period of myocardial infarction ).

What is potassium chloride

Potassium chloride is a simple inorganic compound also known as potassium salt or sylvite. The compound appears as a homogeneous white powder with visible crystals. It is characterized by a white or light gray color, a complete absence of odor and an unpleasant bitter-salty taste. Visually, potassium salt resembles sugar.

Potassium chloride crystals dissolve easily in ordinary water. In an alcohol medium and in acetone, the additive remains unchanged.

Potassium chloride is not only available in chemistry laboratories - it can be found in nature as large natural minerals. In addition, this substance is part of sylvinite, which is sometimes used to obtain a food additive. Production is also possible in laboratory conditions by mixing various components under different conditions.

• metabolic disorders ( hyponatremia with hypovolemia , acidosis ).

Side effects

• muscle weakness;
• arrhythmias;
• paresthesia;
• allergic manifestations;
• confusion;
• decreased blood pressure;
• heart block;
• hyperkalemia;
• heart failure.

The effect of potassium chloride on the human body

Potassium chloride is easily absorbed by the human body from the intestines, and residual substances are eliminated in the same way. Potassium salt is completely safe for the human body.

Potassium salt has more benefits than harm to health. Thus, in reasonable amounts, potassium chloride has a positive effect on the functioning of the heart muscle, normalizes the acid-base balance and ensures the correct conduction of nerve impulses in the body.

Benefits of consuming potassium chloride

Potassium salt is completely safe for the human body, however, it also does not have beneficial properties on its own - the additive has a positive effect only as part of medications.

There is evidence that in moderate quantities, potassium chloride can normalize acidity in the stomach and restore the concentration of minerals in the body. The supplement takes an active part in protein synthesis and amino acid metabolism. Thanks to potassium salt, proper transmission of impulses is ensured, muscles contract correctly.

Potassium chloride is a common component of medications whose action is aimed at improving the functioning of the heart muscle. The minimum dosage of the drug dilates the blood vessels of the heart, and the maximum - narrows it.

Harm from consuming potassium chloride

Although the additive in question is a synthetic product, it does not harm the body. Potassium salt does not have a long list of dangerous properties: the compound does not provoke diseases or allergic reactions.

Despite its relative harmlessness, potassium salt is not recommended for use by those who have hypersensitivity to it, as well as chronic or acute renal failure. Experts do not recommend the use of drugs containing potassium chloride for those diagnosed with heart block, as well as for those treated with potassium-sparing diuretics.

The effect of potassium salt on pregnant women has not been established.

Instructions for use of Potassium Chloride

If indications for use of the drug are diagnosed, Potassium Chloride is prescribed intravenously in a bolus, using potassium chloride in ampoules, or infusion (drip) together with dextrose (5% solution).

In case of intoxication with glycosides, it is recommended to administer potassium chloride in a daily dosage of 2-3 grams, in case of serious intoxication - up to 5 grams.

For hypokalemia occurring with heart rhythm disturbances , 1-1.5 grams are prescribed 4-5 times every 24 hours, with a reduction in dosage after the heart rhythm is .

In case of continuous vomiting or manifestations of severe intoxication that require immediate elimination, use a 4% solution diluted in 40% glucose . 50 ml of the drug is dissolved in a tenfold higher dose (500 ml) of water daily and administered as an infusion with a frequency of 20-30 drops/min. It is also possible to administer by infusion at the rate of 2.5 grams in 500 ml of 5% dextrose or 0.9% sodium chloride .

To level out paroxysmal tachycardia, 8-12 grams of the drug are used on the first day, with a further reduction in the dosage to 3-6 grams.

In order to prevent or treat ectopic arrhythmias in the acute period of myocardial infarction , a polarizing mixture is prepared, for which potassium chloride is dissolved in 5-10% dextrose with the addition of short-acting insulin dextrose ).

Potassium chloride (Potassium chloride)

Concomitant administration with potassium-sparing diuretics (including triamterene, spironolactone, amiloride) can lead to severe hyperkalemia due to a decrease in renal excretion of potassium ions. ACE inhibitors are a risk of developing hyperkalemia because ACE inhibitors reduce the secretion of aldosterone, which leads to potassium retention in the body. Beta blockers increased both the maximum serum potassium concentration and the time required to return to baseline in patients receiving acute intravenous potassium loading. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs - the risk of developing hyperkalemia due to the development of secondary hyperaldosteronism after inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the kidneys. Heparin reduces the synthesis of aldosterone, which can lead to the development of hyperkalemia, especially in cases of existing renal failure or other conditions that impair potassium excretion from the body. The administration of potassium supplements is not recommended in patients with severe and complete heart block who are simultaneously using cardiac glycosides. When potassium supplements are used to correct hypokalemia in such patients, careful monitoring is required. Simultaneous use with insulin and sodium bicarbonate reduces the potassium content in the blood serum. The following drugs that contain potassium or predispose to the development of hyperkalemia can lead to accumulation of potassium when used concomitantly with potassium preparations: aliskiren, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, cyclosporine, tacrolimus. Pharmaceutically compatible with the following solutions for intravenous administration: Ringer's solution in combination with glucose (dextrose) for injection, Ringer's lactate solution in combination with glucose (dextrose) for injection, 5% glucose (dextrose) solution in Ringer's lactate solution for injection, glucose solution (dextrose) in combination with sodium chloride, 5% solution of glucose (dextrose) in 0.9% sodium chloride solution, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 20% solutions of glucose (dextrose) in water for injection, Ringer's solution for injection, Ringer's lactate solution for injection, 0.45%, 0.9%, 3% sodium chloride solutions. Pharmaceutically incompatible when diluted with solutions containing: amikacin sulfate, amphotericin B, amoxicillin sodium, benzylpenicillin, diazepam, dobutamine hydrochloride, ergotamine tartrate, etoposide with cisilantine and mannitol, methylprednisolone sodium succinate, phenytoin sodium, promethazine hydrochloride, sodium nitroprusside, streptom icin sulfate, mannitol, a sterile fat emulsion containing soybean oil and lecithin (this list is not exhaustive).

Overdose

In case of overdose hyperkalemia , characterized by the following symptoms: muscle hypotonicity , paresthesia of the extremities, arrhythmia , inhibition of atrioventricular conduction, cardiac arrest . The first manifestations of hyperkalemia usually occur when the serum potassium is more than 6 mEq/L (loss of the U wave, if it was present on previous cardiograms; highlighting of the T wave; prolongation of the QT interval; decrease in the ST segment; increase in the QRS complex. Serious symptoms of hyperkalemia ( muscle paralysis and cardiac arrest ) are formed at a plasma content of 9-10 meq/l.

To relieve this condition, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride and 300-500 ml of 5% dextrose containing insulin (10-20 units/liter) is prescribed. If necessary, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis .

Reactions with potassium chloride

The substance easily reacts with sodium and its various compounds. For example, potassium salt easily reacts with sodium at temperatures in the range from 760 to 890˚C:

KCl + Na → K + NaCl

Potassium salt easily reacts with sodium nitrite to form potassium nitrous acid and sodium hydrochloric acid:

NaNO2 + KCl → KNO2 + NaCl

Potassium chloride reacts with zinc chloride, upon completion of the reaction, potassium tetrachlorozincate is formed:

Example of problem solution

Determine the boiling point of a concentrated (at 100°C) solution of potassium chloride. At 100°C, 56.7 g of potassium chloride dissolves in 100 g of water.

Solution

Let's make a proportion:

56.7 g KCl – 156.7 g solution, x g KCl – 1000+x g solution,

From here

156, 7 ⋅ x = 56700 + 56, 7 ⋅ x 156.7 \cdot x=56700+56.7 \cdot x 156.7⋅x=56700+56.7⋅x

100 ⋅ x = 56700 100 \cdot x = 56700 100⋅x=56700

x = 56700 100 = 567 x=\frac{56700}{100} = 567 x=10056700​=567 g.

1 mole of KCl – 74.555 g, x moles of KCl – 567 g.

From here

x = 567 ⋅ 1 74 , 555 = 7 , 60 x=\frac{567\cdot1}{74.555} = 7.60 x=74.555567⋅1​=7.60 mol.

When KCl dissociates according to the scheme KCl ↔ Cl- + K+, i = 2 ions are obtained.

Table value for water E = 0.51 K.

Then the increase in boiling point of the solution:

Δ t k and p = i ⋅ E ⋅ C = 2 ⋅ 0, 51 ⋅ 7, 60 = 7, 75 \Delta t_{kip}=i\cdot E \cdot C =2\cdot 0.51 \cdot 7, 60=7.75 Δtboil=i⋅E⋅S=2⋅0.51⋅7.60=7.75K.

Hence t k and p = 100 + 7, 75 = 107, 75 t_{kip} =100+7.75=107.75 tkip​=100+7.75=107.75 °C.

Answer: tk and p = 107.75 t_{kip} =107.75 tkip​=107.75 °C.
