Explanation:
盐形式与游离碱形式使用量相等--I think I would sort the word order like this, so we don't repeat "使用"in one single sentence.

inherently = 内在的;固有的; amounts to something = 相当于[等于]某物


Explanation:
inherently = having a certain quality naturally present 内在的;固有的 eg He was misguided on this occasion, but he's not inherently evil. 他这次是误入歧途,他并非生性堕落的人.

amount, amount to something = a. to mean something without stating it directly 相当于[等于]某物 eg His words amounted to a refusal. 他的话等于拒绝. b. to make a total of a particular amount 总计;合计 eg His debts amount to over $2000. 他欠债总数达一千多英镑.
-> it is a.
