What else can I help you with?
How many electrons does an uncharged atom polonium have?
polonium has 84 protons and 125 neutrons.84 electrons
Is there a picture of polonium and radium?
Polonium and radium are both radioactive elements that cannot be photographed because they are not visible to the naked eye and require specialized equipment to detect. They emit radiation that can be harmful to living organisms.
Does polonium has a odor?
Polonium has no odor.
Is polonium an insulator?
Polonium is not an insulator.The electrical resistivity of polonium is: 0, 40 microohm.meter.
What is polonium charge?
Polonium valence may be 2, 4 or 6.
Do smokers emit polonium radiation?
Any danger exist from the smokers irradiation; but tobacco contain traces of polonium.
Is polonium found in cigarette smoke?
Polonium exists both naturally, as a by-product of the radioactive decay of naturally occurring Uranium 238, and from the 'fall out' of nuclear accidents and the hundreds of atomic bomb tests last century. All plants, including those we eat and feed to livestock, MAY absorb extremely low concentrations of polonium from the environment. The tobacco plant is no exception. Polonium has also been detected in fish. Another potential source of polonium in plants is from phosphate fertilizers. The phosphate ores used have the ability to absorb and trap radioactive contaminants and this is another industrial use of the ores. (Others include the treatment of drinking water and as a whitener in toothpaste!) No commercially viable method is known to eliminate polonium from cigarettes nor from the plants (and fish) in the human food chain, where the levels are considered 'safe'. However, there are many other health risks associated with smoking.
How does polonium help with people addicted to drugs?
We can find no references regarding Polonium (a radioactive element) being in any way beneficial to addicts. Quite the reverse, in fact. Polonium 210 is believed to be responsible for as much as 90% of the lung cancer associated with smoking, and some of the cancers associated with "smokeless tobacco," due to its presence in and on tobacco plants.
Can polonium melt iron?
I consider that is not possible.
Can polonium give you cancer?
Yes, unfortunately it is possible.
How many electrons in polonium?
Polonium, element number 84 on the periodic table, has 84 electrons.
Can a metal detector detect tobacco?
Nope. Just metal...
Is polonium in tobacco smoke?
Polonium occurs naturally in the soil and in the air and ALL plants absorb it from both. The amount obviously varies from place to place. So the answer is YES - possibly from the tobacco and possibly from the 'fresh air' that is by far the major constituent of tobacco smoke. There could be also be some from cooking fumes, especially from frying, grilling and BBQing, and in the fresh fruit and vegetables we eat.
How many electrons does an uncharged atom polonium have?
polonium has 84 protons and 125 neutrons.84 electrons
Why was polonium chosen?
Polonium was chosen because it is a highly toxic radioactive element, making it effective for use in assassinations or covert operations. It is difficult to detect and leaves little evidence, making it a preferred choice for those seeking to carry out clandestine activities.
Is there a picture of polonium and radium?
Polonium and radium are both radioactive elements that cannot be photographed because they are not visible to the naked eye and require specialized equipment to detect. They emit radiation that can be harmful to living organisms.
Name the two poisonous radioactive elements in tobacco?
Radium and Polonium are often found in tobacco. This is caused by the fertilizers used in the growing of the tobacco leaf itself. Tobacco contains only one radioactive element which is found in tar these are Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons. The ammounts are negligible but undoubtedly contribute to the ill health asssosciated with smoking.
