Polonium 210, botulinum toxin, and the toxin from the poison frog are perhaps the most toxic and deadly poisons known to mankind. Polonium 210 is so radioactive that a gram of it can kill 10 million people and the few that will survive will undeniably have cancer. Botulinum toxin is the most lethal toxin. A few drops could kill billions of people. It causes botulism which weakens the muscles of the body and eventually leads to death. The poison frog is used to add poison to arrows of hunters in South America. Simply touching the small frog will surely cause death either by cardiac arrest or lung failure.

What is the mole fraction of solute in a 3.19 m aqueous solution?
Bumek [7]
Molality= mol/ Kg

if we assume that we have 1 kg of water, we have 3.19 moles of solute. 

the formula for mole fraction --> mole fraction= mol of solule/ mol of solution

1) if we have 1 kg of water which is same as 1000 grams of water. 

2) we need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water 

molar mass of H₂O= (2 x 1.01) + 16.0 = 18.02 g/mol

1000 g (1 mol/ 18.02 grams)= 55.5 mol

3) mole of solution= 55.5 moles + 3.19 moles= 58.7 moles of solution

4) mole fraction= 3.19 / 58.7= 0.0543

A community needs more electrical energy. The community is located in an
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

D BIOMASS ENERGY

Explanation:

Most biomass requires arable land to develop. This means

that land used for biofuel crops such as corn and soybeans

are unavailable to grow food or provide natural habitats.

Forested areas that have matured for decades (so-called

“old-growth forests”) are able to sequester more carbon

than newly planted areas.

What makes a metal and a non metal most
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

The reactivity of elements in the periodic table is based on the number of electrons in there outermost shell. Elements (metals) that have few electrons in there outermost shell are highly reactive because it is easier to lose fewer number of electrons (in the outermost shell during a reaction) than to lose more electrons in the outermost shell - thus metals that have one electron in there outermost shell are most reactive and are more reactive than those that have two electrons in there outermost shell. Hence, metals in group 1 are the most reactive metals because they all have one electron in there outermost shell.

Non-metals that have fewer electrons to complete there octet configuration are highly reactive because it is easier to gain fewer number of electrons (in the outermost shell during a reaction) than to gain more number of electrons - thus nonmetals that have seven electrons in there outermost shell are more reactive than nonmetals that have six electrons in there outermost shell. Hence, nonmetals in group 17 are the most reactive nonmetals because they contain seven electrons and have just one electron left to complete there octet configuration.
