    used in many industries including mining and iron and steel production. Additionally, cyanide treats wastewater. According to Wu, F. et al. (2014), socio economics status would be a factor likely to increase exposure of foodborne toxicity because people with low-income consume only one or two foods. On the other hand, children under 18 years old are at high risk in toxicological effects of cyanide since they are immature and differ from adult (ATSDR, 2006). Cyanide compounds would be lethal…

    What are group one elements? Group one elements are alkali metals. The physical properties of group one elements are that they are shiny and the alkali metals are very soft. Lithium is the hardest alkali metal and they become softer as you go down the group. The chemical properties of group one is that they’re very reactive when mixed with water or when in contact with the air. Each element in group one has one electron in their outermost shell. Also, group one elements get more reactive as you…

    Task-5 a) • Metals Metal structure is made up of crystals of metals which are made up of positive metal ions and these ions are surrounded by a sea of delocalized electrons. To separate these substances from this crystal lattice a lot of energy is needed. In between the positive and negative ions is present a strong electrostatic force of attraction. That is the reason why metals have strong melting and boiling points. In order to slide one layer of the metal ions over the other layer very less…

    Introduction Lead (Pb) contamination is a pervasive issue in many low-income neighborhoods throughout the United States. The toxicity of lead poses significant risks to human health, and proves to be especially harmful for children in terms of cognitive and physical development. Lead in the environment is primarily related to a legacy of anthropogenic sources including leaded gasoline, leaded paint, and various industrial applications. Although the presence of heavy metals is ubiquitous in the…
