this question is based on conservation of mass.
Lead hydrogen arsenate, also called lead arsenate,
acid lead arsenate or LA, chemical formula
PbHAsO4, is an inorganic insecticide. if suppose a
small amount of it, enters the human's body by
any means (a very minute quantity can enters via
food also, if it was used as insecticide).
answer the following statements with reasonable
explanation also.
1) if it enters the human's body, most of lead and
arsenic removed from the body via urine
excretion. a small quantity of it may stay in the
body. (True/False)
2) if suppose small quantity of it, stayed in the
body, the amount of lead arsenate can increases
with time in his body, even though the person do
not exposed to it further
(True/False)
3) statement 2 is against conservation of mass,
since our body can not produce lead arsenate by
it's own. it has to come from externally to
accumulate (True/False)
4) if suppose a small quantity of it stored in liver,
the size of liver increases with time due to the
amount of lead and arsenic increases with time,
even though the person do not exposed to it
further (True/False)
5) statement 4 is wrong, since our liver can not
produce these heavy metals (lead and arsenic) by
it's own. these elements created in nuclear
reactions which occurred during the big bang and
inside the massive stars. (True/False)
6) None of the elements created in our body, our
body just uses the elements from what we eat
(True/False).
