• A sodium ion is only bonded to the chloride ion it donated its electron to.
• As a result the sodium ion is ejected from the filter.
• The Sodium Ion is a monovalent cation.
• In addition, the outer shell now has a full complement of eight electrons so that the Sodium ion is now stable.
• You are a sodium ion (Na+).
• There could be billions of sodium ions and chloride ions packed together, or trillions, or whatever - it simply depends how big the crystal is.
• As it is unreceptive to other ions, the electrode takes highly accurate measurements of sodium ion concentrations.
• Links to relevant publications on the WWW Technical Specifications for the Sodium Ion-Selective Electrode (ELIT 8230) Click here to download a printer-friendly MS Word 97 Specification Sheet.
• However, the sodium ion itself is quite inert, with high solubility for its salts and weak complexation abilities.
