True The positive electric charge of a proton is equal in magnitude to the negative charge of an electron; therefore, the net electric charge of an ion is equal to its number of protons minus its number of electrons. Ions are highly reactive species.
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:
Atom
Explanation:
The smallest unit which maintains an element's properties is an atom.
Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,
Explanation :
Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of individual elements present on product side.
The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,
This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of atoms of individual elements are not balanced.
In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 2 is put before the 
, the coefficient 3 is put before the 
and the coefficient 4 is put before the 
.
The energy evolved in this reaction = 
Thus, the balanced chemical reaction will be,
