Radioactive is the most penetrating nuclear radiation
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>
Answer:
Explanation:
To solve the problem, we must know the kind of compounds we are dealing with.
For the first compound, P1 and second compound P2:
N O N O
Mass percent 64.17 35.73 47.23 52.79
Atomic mass 14 16 14 16
Number of
moles 64.17/14 35.73/16 47.23/14 52.79/16
4.58 2.23 3.37 3.30
Simplest
ratio 4.58/2.23 2.23/2.23 3.37/3.30 3.3/3.3
2 1 1 1
P1 compound is N₂O
P2 compound is NO
These are the compounds,
In N₂O = 28:16
NO = 14:16
This is the ratio of nitrogen to a fixed mass of oxygen for the two compounds.
Hydrogen as it has only 1 proton and therefore only an atomic mass of 1...
