No. It is a strategically valuable metal for its use in nuclear reactors, but almost everyone who has a rechargeable battery has NiCad or nickel-cadmium. You can buy pure cadmium metal, although cadmium powder is toxic if allowed to combust.
Cadmium
You use it for something that probably involves science.
cadmium diiodide or cadmium (II) iodide --------- Right Answer: Cadmium iodide
Cadmium is the element that has a nuclear charge of +48. It has a melting point of 610 degrees Fahrenheit.
These are the uses of Cadmium occurs as a minor component in most zinc ores and therefore is a byproduct of zinc production. Cadmium was used for a long time as a pigment and for corrosion resistant plating on steel. Cadmium compounds were used to stabilize plastic. With the exception of its use innickel-cadmium batteries and cadmium telluride solar panels, the use of cadmium is generally decreasing in its other applications. These declines have been due to competing technologies, cadmium's toxicity in certain forms and concentration and resulting regulations [4]. Although cadmium is toxic, one enzyme, a carbonic anhydrase with cadmium as reactive center has been discovered.
