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:
Explanation:
Elements need a total of eight electrons to gain stability and look like a noble gas. So, they sometimes need sharing of two, four or even six electrons to complete their octate. So, they form double and triple covalent bonds. One more the reason is the interaction between the p orbitals of the combining atoms. for example A double bond, as in ethene H2C=CH2, arises from one combination of the s orbitals and one combination of the p_y orbitals.
The surface metabolism model evokes mineral
catalysts. Surface metabolism model dissolved gases in contact with
minerals lining the walls of the deep-sea hydrothermal vents and formed more
complex, organic molecules while Prebiotic soup model is molecules in
atmosphere or from meteorites condensed in the ocean which led to the formation
of more complex molecules.
The answer is 4.45 × 10²⁴ units.
To calculate this, we will use Avogadro's number which is the number of units (atoms, molecules) in 1 mole of substance:
6.02 × 10²³ units per 1 mole
So, we need a proportion:
If 6.02 × 10²³ units are in 1 mole, how many units will be in 7.40 moles:
6.02 × 10²³ units : 1 mole = x : 7.40 moles
After crossing the products:
1 mole * x = 7.40 moles * 6.02 × 10²³ units
x = 7.40 * 6.02 × 10²³ units
x = 44.5 × 10²³ units = 4.45× 10²⁴ unit
B, Rocks are always being recycled into different forms.
