Patient Care Technicians work under the supervision of nephrology nurses (nurses who are trained to help people with kidney disease) to provide safe, comfortable and hygienic dialysis treatments for patients. They are often the staff members who have the most âone on oneâ time with guests at the facility.
Potassium iodide, a white salt, is used as an additive in some brands of iodized table salt. The melting point of potassium iodide is 681.0Â°C. Convert this value to degrees Fahrenheit (Â°F), and kelvin (K).
NOTE FROM THE PROFESSOR: Potassium always seems to react particularly violently; 2K + 2H2O â 2KOH + H2. It may just be that we use bigger lumps of it or perhaps the melting point is just right for the metal to begin melting when the reaction is already going strongly.
