How toxic is uranium

Chemistry
2 answers:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Inhaling large concentrations of uranium can cause lung cancer from the exposure to alpha particles. Uranium is also a toxic chemical, meaning that ingestion of uranium can cause kidney damage from its chemical properties much sooner than its radioactive properties would cause cancers of the bone or liver.

What is the atomic number (Z) of an atom containing 30 neutrons and having A= 70?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
A= mass number = number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Z= number of electrons = number of protons
Given, number of neutrons= 30

Z = A - 30 = 70 - 30 = 40

Z = 40

Citric acid is a naturally occurring compound. what orbitals are used to form each indicated bond? be sure to answer all parts.2
Rina8888 [55]

Answer : The orbitals that are used to form each indicated bond in citric acid is given below as per the attachment.

Answer 1) σ Bond a : C has SP^{2}  O has SP^{2} .

Explanation : The orbitals of oxygen and carbon which are involved in SP^{2} hybridization to form sigma bonds. This is observed at 'a' position in the citric acid molecule.

Answer 2) π Bond a: C has π orbitals and  O also has π  orbitals.

Explanation : The pi-bond at the 'a'position has carbon and oxygen atoms which undergoes pi-bond formation. And has pi orbitals of oxygen and carbon involved in the bonding process.

Answer 3) Bond b:  O SP^{3}  H has only S orbital involved in bonding.

Explanation : The bonding at 'b' position involves oxygen SP^{3} hydrogen atoms in it. It has SP^{3} hybridized orbitals and S orbital of hydrogen involved in the bonding.

Answer 4) Bond c:   C is SP^{3}  O is also SP^{3}

Explanation : The bonding involved at 'c' position has carbon and oxygen atoms involved in it. Both the atoms involves the orbitals of SP^{3} hybridized bonds.

Answer 5) Bond d:   C atom has SP^{3}  C atom has SP^{3}

Explanation : At the position of 'd' the bonding between two carbon atoms is found to be SP^{3}. Therefore, the orbitals that undergo SP^{3} hybridization are SP^{3}.

Answer 6) Bond e : C1 containing O SP^{2}    

C2 is SP^{3}

Explanation : The carbon atom which contains oxygen along with a double bond has SP^{2} hybridized orbitals involved in the bonding process; whereas the carbon at C2 has SP^{3} hybridized orbitals involved during the bonding. This is for the 'e' position.
