HELP!!!!!!!!!!! *What are some of the safety concerns for Barium sulfate & Barium Sulfide? Explain
Alex

BaSO₄ is relatively harmless, but BaS is highly toxic.

BaSO₄ is quite insoluble (240 µg/100 mL). It is a <em>mild irritant</em> in cases of skin contact and inhalation. However, it is <em>safe enough</em> that health professionals ask patients to drink a suspension of BaSO₄. The Ba is opaque to X-rays, so it makes the stomach and intestines more visible to radiographers.

BaS is soluble (7.7 g/100 mL). It reacts slowly with water and more rapidly in the acid conditions of the stomach to <em>release H₂S</em>.

BaS + 2HCl ⟶ BaCl₂ + H₂S

An H₂S concentration of 60 mg/100 mL can be <em>fatal within 30 min</em>.

<em>Don’t eat barium sulfide!</em>

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used as a strong base in organic synthesis. LDA is itself prepared by an acid-base reaction be
kakasveta [241]

Explanation:

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used in many organic synthesis and is a strong base. It is prepared by the acid base reaction of N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) and butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ).

The equation is show below as:

[(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH + Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃  ⇒  [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺  + CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃

N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) is a weaker acid and hence,  LDA ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺ ) is stronger base. (Weaker acid has stronger conjugate base)

Butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very strong base and hence, butane ( CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very weak acid. (Strong base has weaker conjugate acid)
