What else can I help you with?
Is NaCN soluble or insoluble and which ions would be present in an aqueous solution if any?
NaCN is soluble in water. The ions present would be the sodium ion (Na+) and the cyanide ion (CN-).
Do you need a license to buy a chemical in the UK?
If the chemical is NaCl (sodium chloride = ordinary salt), the answer is no. If the chemical is cyanide, for instance, then the answer would be yes.
Does cyanide cause pain?
Sometimes. Injestion of toxic cyanides like hydrogen cyanide, potassium cyanide, and sodium cyanide, in less than lethal doses, can cause headaches (and/or eupohoria, shortness of breath, vertigo, confusion, adema, paralysis)- however, a highly concentrated dose would act so quickly that it's unlikely the potential headache would have a chance manifest before the subject falls into a coma then dies one to three minutes later.
Would artificial respiration save a person who has cyanide poisoning?
No, artificial respiration would not save a person who has cyanide poisoning. Cyanide inhibits cellular respiration by blocking the enzyme cytochrome c oxidase in the mitochondria, preventing the cells from using oxygen. Therefore, providing artificial respiration would not be effective in delivering oxygen to the cells and reversing the effects of cyanide poisoning. Immediate medical intervention with antidotes such as hydroxocobalamin or sodium thiosulfate is crucial in treating cyanide poisoning.
Does rat poison contain cyanide?
Some rat poisons may contain cyanide as an active ingredient, but not all rat poisons do. Cyanide can be a highly toxic substance that interferes with cellular respiration, leading to cell death. It is important to always use rat poisons as directed and keep them away from children and pets.
What would happen if someone had cyanide?
If you took cyanide, then you would most likely die within minutes.
How much cyanide would kill an elephant?
About 150mg of cyanide can kill a 60kg human so about 15g should kill a 6000 kg adult male elephant. The cyanide would kill the elephant in much the same way it kills humans because we are both mammals.
What happened in Romania with the cyanide mine?
Corrupt Romanians politicians insist now on approving the project; the mine is for gold and silver (sodium cyanide would be only a material for extraction). The foreigners (from Canada ad others) want to steal our gold and silver by the intermediate of local gangsters.
Cyanide binds with at least one molecule involved in producing ATP If a cell is exposed to cyanide most of the cyanide would be found within the?
mitochondria. Cyanide binds to cytochrome c oxidase, a key enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain involved in producing ATP. Therefore, most of the cyanide would be found within the mitochondria of the cell.
Do apples contain cyanide?
Yes there is cyanide in apple seeds but it would take many to kill you.
What is the lethal dose of cyanide?
The lethal dose of potassium or sodium cyanide is 200 to 300 mg and of hydrocyanic acid is 50 mg. Effects begin within seconds of inhalation and within 30 min of ingestion.Now why you would want to know this, I'm unsure. Be safe.http://www.manbir-online.com/diseases/cyanide.htm
What would happen if cyanide was spilled?
You would die
