  • 5 Heavy Metals As Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals
    5 Heavy Metals as Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals Cheryl A. Dyer, PHD CONTENTS 1 Introduction 2 Arsenic 3 Cadmium 4 Lead 5 Mercury 6 Uranium 7 Conclusions 1. INTRODUCTION Heavy metals are present in our environment as they formed during the earth’s birth. Their increased dispersal is a function of their usefulness during our growing dependence on industrial modification and manipulation of our environment (1,2). There is no consensus chemical definition of a heavy metal. Within the periodic table, they comprise a block of all the metals in Groups 3–16 that are in periods 4 and greater. These elements acquired the name heavy metals because they all have high densities, >5 g/cm3 (2). Their role as putative endocrine-disrupting chemicals is due to their chemistry and not their density. Their popular use in our industrial world is due to their physical, chemical, or in the case of uranium, radioactive properties. Because of the reactivity of heavy metals, small or trace amounts of elements such as iron, copper, manganese, and zinc are important in biologic processes, but at higher concentrations they often are toxic. Previous studies have demonstrated that some organic molecules, predominantly those containing phenolic or ring structures, may exhibit estrogenic mimicry through actions on the estrogen receptor. These xenoestrogens typically are non-steroidal organic chemicals released into the environment through agricultural spraying, indus- trial activities, urban waste and/or consumer products that include organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, bisphenol A, phthalates, alkylphenols, and parabens (1). This definition of xenoestrogens needs to be extended, as recent investi- gations have yielded the paradoxical observation that heavy metals mimic the biologic From: Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals: From Basic Research to Clinical Practice Edited by: A.

Occur together in nature, in minerals, e.g. monazite (a mixed rare earth phosphate). 2. Very similar chemical properties. Found combined with non-metals largely in the 3+ oxidation state, with little tendency to variable valence. 3. Small difference in solubility / complex formation etc. of M3+ are due to size effects. Traversing the series r(M3+) steadily decreases – the lanthanide contraction. Difficult to separate and differentiate, e.g. in 1911 James performed 15000 recrystallisations to get pure Tm(BrO3)3! f-Orbitals The Effective Electron Potential: • Large angular momentum for an f-orbital (l = 3). • Large centrifugal potential tends to keep the electron away from the nucleus. o Aufbau order. • Increased Z increases Coulombic attraction to a larger extent for smaller n due to a proportionately greater change in Zeff. o Reasserts Hydrogenic order. This can be viewed empirically as due to differing penetration effects. Radial Wavefunctions Pn,l2 for 4f, 5d, 6s in Ce 4f orbitals (and the atoms in general) steadily contract across the lanthanide series. Effective electron potential for the excited states of Ba {[Xe] 6s 4f} & La {[Xe] 6s 5d 4f} show a sudden change in the broadness & depth of the 4f "inner well".

  • The Periodic Electronegativity Table
    The Periodic Electronegativity Table Jan C. A. Boeyens Unit for Advanced Study, University of Pretoria, South Africa Reprint requests to J. C. A. Boeyens. E-mail: [email protected] Z. Naturforsch. 2008, 63b, 199 – 209; received October 16, 2007 The origins and development of the electronegativity concept as an empirical construct are briefly examined, emphasizing the confusion that exists over the appropriate units in which to express this quantity. It is shown how to relate the most reliable of the empirical scales to the theoretical definition of electronegativity in terms of the quantum potential and ionization radius of the atomic valence state. The theory reflects not only the periodicity of the empirical scales, but also accounts for the related thermochemical data and serves as a basis for the calculation of interatomic interaction within molecules. The intuitive theory that relates electronegativity to the average of ionization energy and electron affinity is elucidated for the first time and used to estimate the electron affinities of those elements for which no experimental measurement is possible. Key words: Valence State, Quantum Potential, Ionization Radius Introduction electronegative elements used to be distinguished tra- ditionally [1].

  • An Alternate Graphical Representation of Periodic Table of Chemical Elements Mohd Abubakr1, Microsoft India (R&D) Pvt
    An Alternate Graphical Representation of Periodic table of Chemical Elements Mohd Abubakr1, Microsoft India (R&D) Pvt. Ltd, Hyderabad, India. [email protected] Abstract Periodic table of chemical elements symbolizes an elegant graphical representation of symmetry at atomic level and provides an overview on arrangement of electrons. It started merely as tabular representation of chemical elements, later got strengthened with quantum mechanical description of atomic structure and recent studies have revealed that periodic table can be formulated using SO(4,2) SU(2) group. IUPAC, the governing body in Chemistry, doesn‟t approve any periodic table as a standard periodic table. The only specific recommendation provided by IUPAC is that the periodic table should follow the 1 to 18 group numbering. In this technical paper, we describe a new graphical representation of periodic table, referred as „Circular form of Periodic table‟. The advantages of circular form of periodic table over other representations are discussed along with a brief discussion on history of periodic tables. 1. Introduction The profoundness of inherent symmetry in nature can be seen at different depths of atomic scales. Periodic table symbolizes one such elegant symmetry existing within the atomic structure of chemical elements. This so called „symmetry‟ within the atomic structures has been widely studied from different prospects and over the last hundreds years more than 700 different graphical representations of Periodic tables have emerged [1]. Each graphical representation of chemical elements attempted to portray certain symmetries in form of columns, rows, spirals, dimensions etc. Out of all the graphical representations, the rectangular form of periodic table (also referred as Long form of periodic table or Modern periodic table) has gained wide acceptance.

  • Periodic Table 1 Periodic Table
    Periodic table 1 Periodic table This article is about the table used in chemistry. For other uses, see Periodic table (disambiguation). The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, organized on the basis of their atomic numbers (numbers of protons in the nucleus), electron configurations , and recurring chemical properties. Elements are presented in order of increasing atomic number, which is typically listed with the chemical symbol in each box. The standard form of the table consists of a grid of elements laid out in 18 columns and 7 Standard 18-column form of the periodic table. For the color legend, see section Layout, rows, with a double row of elements under the larger table. below that. The table can also be deconstructed into four rectangular blocks: the s-block to the left, the p-block to the right, the d-block in the middle, and the f-block below that. The rows of the table are called periods; the columns are called groups, with some of these having names such as halogens or noble gases. Since, by definition, a periodic table incorporates recurring trends, any such table can be used to derive relationships between the properties of the elements and predict the properties of new, yet to be discovered or synthesized, elements. As a result, a periodic table—whether in the standard form or some other variant—provides a useful framework for analyzing chemical behavior, and such tables are widely used in chemistry and other sciences. Although precursors exist, Dmitri Mendeleev is generally credited with the publication, in 1869, of the first widely recognized periodic table.

  • Upper Limit of the Periodic Table and the Future Superheavy Elements
    CLASSROOM Rajarshi Ghosh Upper Limit of the Periodic Table and the Future Department of Chemistry The University of Burdwan ∗ Superheavy Elements Burdwan 713 104, India. Email: [email protected] Controversy surrounds the isolation and stability of the fu- ture transactinoid elements (after oganesson) in the periodic table. A single conclusion has not yet been drawn for the highest possible atomic number, though there are several the- oretical as well as experimental results regarding this. In this article, the scientific backgrounds of those upcoming super- heavy elements (SHE) and their proposed electronic charac- ters are briefly described. Introduction Totally 118 elements, starting from hydrogen (atomic number 1) to oganesson (atomic number 118) are accommodated in the mod- ern form of the periodic table comprising seven periods and eigh- teen groups. Total 92 natural elements (if technetium is consid- ered as natural) are there in the periodic table (up to uranium hav- ing atomic number 92). In the actinoid series, only four elements— Keywords actinium, thorium, protactinium and uranium—are natural. The Superheavy elements, actinoid rest of the eleven elements—from neptunium (atomic number 93) series, transactinoid elements, periodic table. to lawrencium (atomic number 103)—are synthetic. Elements after actinoids (i.e., from rutherfordium) are called transactinoid elements. These are also called superheavy elements (SHE) as they have very high atomic numbers. Prof. G T Seaborg had Elements after actinoids a very distinct contribution in the field of transuranium element (i.e., from synthesis. For this, Prof. Seaborg was awarded the Nobel Prize in rutherfordium) are called transactinoid elements. 1951.
