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:
Answer: 1) Temperature can change the solubility of a solute.
Explanation:
The chart is missing so there is no way to tell what does the graph show.
Yet, I can help you because I can explain the status of each statement of the choices. As you will see there is only one possibility..
<span>1) Temperature can change the solubility of a solute.
Yes, temperature definetly can, and mostly do, modify the solubility of a solute.
You can search any chart of solubility and will find that.
I can give you two examples:
a) Sodium chloride: dissolve some spoons of salt in a cold water until you can not dissolve more. Then, heat the water, you will find that more salt will get dissolved, proving that the temperature of the solution increases the solubility of sodium chloride.
b) Carbon dioxide gas: the soft drinks have CO₂ molecules dissolved in it.
The higher the temperature of the soft drink the less the amount of CO₂(g) that can be dissolved. That is why the soda bottling plants cool the beverage before adding the CO₂(g).
2) </span><span>Temperature has no affect on the solubility of a solute.
Since this is the opposite to the first statement and the first is true, this is false.
3) Salt has a greater solubility than sugar.
False.
This is an empirical result, which you cannot predict theoretically. So you need to see at the data either in a table or in a chart. Else you can test it at home. After the empirical data are shown it results that more grams of sugar can be dissolved in water compared to salt.
That is something you ca see in a chart or you can prove by yourself.
4) Nitrite salt has a greater solubility than sugar.
</span>
False.
Looking at some data you can find that sodium nitrite solutiliby is aroun 70 - 100 g/10 g while sugar (sucrose) solutiblity is around 180 - 235 g/ 100 g.
Although I’m not entirely sure what answer you’re looking for, I’d say because most scientific investigations require multiple trials of an experiment
Answer:
4 is b, 9 is c, 10 is b, 11 is a, 17 is c, 18 is a
Explanation:
I did fossils in science Olympiad
They have different number of Neutrons and protons, so their masses are different
Hope this helps!
