Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.43QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Considering the position of strontium in the periodic table it should be explain that why it is particularly harmful to human.
Concept introduction:
- Periodic table is the table that shows the elements which are represented by various symbols, their
atomic number ,average atomic mass … and elements with similar chemical properties are grouped together. - Each vertical column in the periodic table is referred as group. Eighteen (18) groups are there in periodic table.
- The elements within the same group have similar properties.
- An element with same atomic number and different mass number is referred as isotope if the nucleus of this element is unstable and dissipate excess energy by emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta and gamma rays is known as radioactive isotope.
To find: a reason for the harmful effect of strontium in human body by considering the position of Strontium in the periodic table.
