Selenium:
· is an important part of a molecule in the body that protects blood cells from certain damaging chemicals
· helps our system produce antibodies (a structure of molecules that binds to the surface of a virus and prevents it from damaging your body)
· helps keep the pancreas and heart functioning properly
· makes our tissues elastic (stops our skin from stretching apart)
Selenium dioxide (SeO2) is the most widely used selenium compound in industry. It is used as an oxidising agent in drug and other chemical manufacture, a catalyst in organic syntheses, and an anti-oxidant in lubricating oils.
A selenium camera is a type of light metering system that uses a selenium cell to measure the amount of light available for a photograph. It is commonly found in older film cameras and works by converting light into an electrical current which helps to determine the optimal exposure settings for a photo.
There is one mole of selenium in one mole of selenium tetrafluoride, as the formula for selenium tetrafluoride is SeF4. Therefore, there is 1 mole of selenium in 1 mole of selenium tetrafluoride.
Yes. selenium is a non metal
Jons Jacob was the man to discover Selenium.
Selenium is represented by the symbol Se on the periodic table. It is a nonmetal element with various industrial uses, including in electronics and glass manufacturing.

The chief commercial uses for selenium today are in glassmaking and in pigments. Selenium is a semiconductor and is used in photocells. Uses in electronics, once important, have been mostly supplanted by silicon semiconductor devices. Selenium continues to be used in a few types of DC power surge protectors and one type of fluorescent quantum dot.

Some applications of selenium:- red glass fabrication- rubber vulcanization- manganese refinning by electrolysis- component of alloys- solar cells- photoconductive materials- inorganic dyes
Sleneium is the main chelating agent in the selenium chelation process it is present in the human body normally in small quantities and can be used to extract mercury from the body helping to treat mercury poisoning.

This compound is called selenium hexafluoride.
There is one mole of selenium in one mole of selenium tetrafluoride, as the formula for selenium tetrafluoride is SeF4. Therefore, there is 1 mole of selenium in 1 mole of selenium tetrafluoride.
The main uses for grains is to feed birds!:)
