Answer:
We report an unusual case of mercury vapor poisoning from using a heated tobacco product. The suspect had added grains of mercury into 20 cigarettes in a pack. When a 36-year-old Japanese man inserted one of these cigarettes into the battery powered holder, it was heated to a temperature of 350 °C, and he inhaled vaporized mercury. After using 14 of the cigarettes over 16 h, he noticed he had flu-like symptoms so he visited the hospital. Although no physical abnormalities were revealed, 99 μg/L of mercury was detected in his serum sample. His general condition improved gradually and his whole blood mercury level had decreased to 38 μg/L 5 days later. When the remaining six cigarettes in the pack were examined, many metallic grains weighing a total of 1.57 g were observed. Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry confirmed the grains as elemental mercury. Accordingly, the victim was diagnosed with mercury poisoning. Because the mercury was incorporated into cigarettes, an unusual and novel intoxication occurred through the heating of the tobacco product. Both medical and forensic scientific examination confirmed this event as attempted murder.
Explanation:
Atomic mass is the decimal number that is on the periodic table...
Boron's atomic mass is 10.81
Answer:
★ Molecular geometry is described by VSEPR theory, which basically states that electron pairs around a central atom will repel each other, and get as far apart as possible, in three dimensions.

Answer: The complete reaction is as follows.
Explanation:
When nucleus of two or more atoms are bombarded together then it leads to the formation of new particles with new identity. This type of reaction are called nuclear reaction.
For example, 
Here, nitrogen atom when bombarded with a neutron then it is forming hydrogen and a carbon atom.
As total atomic mass on reactant side is (14 + 1) = 15
So, the atomic mass of carbon formed on product side is (15 - 1) = 14.
The number of protons holded by this carbon atom is (7 - 1) = 6.
Therefore, we can conclude that the complete reaction is as follows.
