What else can I help you with?
I am Heavy rare and expensive?
I am sodium because I am a metal and metals are heavy and i am also very expensive.
Is arsenic considered as a heavy metal?
No, arsenic is a metalloid, which means it has characteristics of both metals and non-metals.
how do heavy metals affect us?
They tend to be poisonous to humans and can contaminate water and soil. Heavy metals would include elements such as lead, mercury, tin, arsenic, and antimony.
Does distillation kill microbes and remove heavy metal contaminants?
Distillation can effectively remove heavy metal contaminants from water by separating them from the water through vaporization and condensation. However, it may not effectively kill all microbes present in the water, as some heat-resistant microbes can survive the distillation process. It is recommended to use additional water treatment methods to ensure complete microbial disinfection.
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.
What method of treating water kills microbes and removes other contaminates such as heavy metals?
No one method does both of these things optimally. For drinking/potable water supplies: * Killing microbes (bacteria, protozoa, etc.) is done with disinfection using chlorine, bromine or UV light or thermal treatment. * Heavy metals removal can be don with reverse osmosis, activated carbon filtration, deionization, coagulation precipitation and filtering, or distillation. Distillation is generally reserved for small amounts of water not municipal supplies. For swimming pools heavy metals are not a major concern and only disinfection is used. For treating water (sewage or industrial wastewater) before discharge to a watercourse disinfection and filtering is generally used . The majoriyty of metals are asorbed by the activated sludge and can be removed as any solid.
Where are heavy metals found in the periodic table?
Heavy metals are typically found in the middle of the periodic table. These heavy metals are often also transition metals.
Why must we purify our water?
Most water contains microbes (bacteria, spores, viruses) and harmful chemicals (toxins, heavy metals, carcinogens, etc.) that can cause ill health and death. Various treatments are used to remove the poisons and kill or eliminate the microbes, such as chlorination and filtration.
What are the importance of heavy metals in cooking?
Heavy metals compounds have frequently toxic properties.
Is platinum heavy compared to other metals?
Yes, platinum is heavy compared to other metals.
Are calcium gluconate magnesium sulfate and potassium phosphate heavy metals?
No, calcium gluconate, magnesium sulfate, and potassium phosphate are not heavy metals. They are inorganic salts commonly used in pharmaceuticals and medicine for various purposes. Heavy metals typically include elements like lead, mercury, and cadmium.
Why ammonia is added in heavy metals limit test?
Ammonia is added in heavy metals limit tests to precipitate heavy metals as their insoluble hydroxides. This allows for the separation of heavy metals from other interfering substances in the sample, making it easier to detect and quantitate the heavy metals present.
Is real gold light or heavy in comparison to other metals?
Real gold is heavy in comparison to other metals.
Why are lead and mercury considered heavy metals?
they are considered heavy metals because of the weight to volume ration in comparison to other metals. they have more mass with little volume than other metals do.
What is the difference between heavy metals and the other metals?
Scientifically speaking, there are a couple of fundamental differences between heavy metals and other metals in the table of the elements. Heavier metals tend to have more ions and typically, less toxic elements.
Is gold one of the lightest metals?
No, gold is not one of the lightest metals. It is actually quite dense and heavy compared to many other metals.
