What can iodine tablets do against radiation?

Iodine tablets are taken by individuals who have just been or are being exposed to radioactive materials that include radioactive iodine. In nuclear fission reactors, uranium (or sometimes plutonium) fission to create energy. When these fuel atoms split (fission), there are a number of fission products that can result, including a radioactive isotope of iodine. In a reactor accident that includes a meltdown and the release of radioactive fission products into the environment, radioactive iodine can be present. By taking iodine tablets, an individual who is exposed to radioactive iodine that was released in a nuclear reactor accident can avoid having his body absorb this radioactive material. Taking iodine tablets keeps iodine levels in the body high, and the thyroid gland, which absorbs iodine, high. This effectively prevents radioactive iodine from being absorbed and taken up by the thyroid. As absorbing radioactive iodine can lead to thyroid cancer, taking iodine tablets is a good shield against uptake of the radioactive isotope.

What make an acid or a base strong?

Metals are needed to make bases, and strong metals - by which I do not mean physically strong, but rather chemically strong, in that they have a particularly weak grip on their valence electrons - make strong bases. And non-metals are needed to make acids, and strong non-metals, meaning those which have a particularly strong attraction to the electrons of other elements - make strong acids. That is why fluorine, the strongest non-metal - in more technical terms, the element with the highest electronegativity - makes the strongest acid, hydrofluoric acid. And the elements with the lowest electronegativity make the strongest bases. You may wonder how this works. An acid, dissolved in water, releases hydrogen ions, and a base releases hydroxide ions. Hydrogen will ionize most completely when its electron has been taken away by the element with the strongest attraction to electrons. And hydroxide radicals will also ionize most completely when they have taken away electrons from the elements that hold on to their electrons the most weakly. It's all about the hydrogen and the hydroxide. That's what makes things acidic or basic.
