The water in my garden water butt is not all that clean - so how do I purify it?
I am told that potassium permanganate can be used for this purpose, but I don’t know how much to add to the water butt.
And where can I buy it in the UK - chemists’ shops, shops like Wilkinson’s or Woolworth’s, or where? I don’t have a car, so it is tricky to get to garden centres.
Does potassium permanganate do any damage to plants if it gets on the leaves, or is it safe to use all over the garden?
Is there anything better than potassium permanganate to use for this purpose?
I wish all gardeners and Yahoo enthusiasts a happy weekend.

I have chronically low potassium levels. Is it OK to take potassium supplements, or do I need to get it from foods for better absorbency? What are some foods that are high in potassium besides bananas? Thanks for your input.

apparently she can’t eat anything. we really are despertate! thanks for any suggestion.

Include answers to the following:
oWhy is water essential to health maintenance?

oWhat happens to the body when it does not get the water it needs?
oCompare and contrast how different electrolytes—sodium, potassium, and chloride—function in the body.
oWhat effects can alcohol and caffeine have on hydration levels in the body?

I have untreated high blood pressure (usually around 144/99). I am taking my blood pressure each day to monitor the situation and establish what level I am at. I know I need to go on medication, but I want a medication that will have few side effects. I am particularly concerned about sexual side effects and I would still like to be able to have a couple drinks now and again.

Well i’ve been good on my diet and decided to give myself a treat and got a small banana sonic blast and when i had it i wanted to see how many calories are in it. Sonics website doesn’t show the calories in a small but show the regular and large. Does anyone know how much a small would have? Please!

Regular 560
Large 790

You know… they say that having a diet rich in fruits can make your *** and area taste better, and diets high in junky food can make it smell and taste foul.

Do you think women today have too much sodium in their diet that affects their "pH" balance?

Just wondering….

Sulfuric acid (1M), potassium permanganate(0.02M) and oxalic acid(0.2M) are combined in an experiment to observe the effect of temperature on rate of reaction.

Why is the potassium permanganate acidified and what is the equation for the whole reaction?

Thanks.
