Poisoning and disease can occur due to human exposure to trace quantities of heavy metals. Common trace metals include Mercury (Hg), arsenic (Ar) and lead (Pb).

What heavy metals can be found in crude oil?

Easy answer you could have come up with by yourself I think. Crude oil, means oil straight from the ground and not refined yet. Heavy metals means not light metals. So not iron or sodium but Lead and other heavy stuff. Since oil comes from the ground and metals are mined from the ground, it makes sense that they could be found together. So if the teacher wants a different answer he should have said "how is crude oil formed" or something like that.

How aas is used in heavy metal analysis?

Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) is a technique used in heavy metal analysis to determine the concentration of metals in various samples. In this method, a sample is atomized in a flame or graphite furnace, and the metal atoms absorb light at specific wavelengths corresponding to their unique energy levels. The amount of light absorbed is proportional to the concentration of the metal in the sample, allowing for quantitative analysis. AAS is particularly effective for detecting trace levels of heavy metals in environmental, biological, and industrial samples.
