  • Of the Periodic Table
    of the Periodic Table teacher notes Give your students a visual introduction to the families of the periodic table! This product includes eight mini- posters, one for each of the element families on the main group of the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron/Aluminum Group (Icosagens), Carbon Group (Crystallogens), Nitrogen Group (Pnictogens), Oxygen Group (Chalcogens), Halogens, and Noble Gases. The mini-posters give overview information about the family as well as a visual of where on the periodic table the family is located and a diagram of an atom of that family highlighting the number of valence electrons. Also included is the student packet, which is broken into the eight families and asks for specific information that students will find on the mini-posters. The students are also directed to color each family with a specific color on the blank graphic organizer at the end of their packet and they go to the fantastic interactive table at www.periodictable.com to learn even more about the elements in each family. Furthermore, there is a section for students to conduct their own research on the element of hydrogen, which does not belong to a family. When I use this activity, I print two of each mini-poster in color (pages 8 through 15 of this file), laminate them, and lay them on a big table. I have students work in partners to read about each family, one at a time, and complete that section of the student packet (pages 16 through 21 of this file). When they finish, they bring the mini-poster back to the table for another group to use.

  • Paediatric Barium Swallow/Meal Information for Parents and Carers Your Doctor Has Referred Your Child for a Barium Swallow/Meal to Look at Their Food Pipe and Stomach
    Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust Paediatric Barium Swallow/Meal Information for parents and carers Your doctor has referred your child for a barium swallow/meal to look at their food pipe and stomach. We have written this information leaflet to help you and your child to understand this test. We hope it answers some of the questions you both may have and helps you and your child to feel more prepared and relaxed. page 2 What is a barium swallow/meal? A barium swallow/meal uses a special liquid to allow the X-ray doctor (radiologist) to see your child’s oesophagus (food pipe or gullet), stomach and the first part of their intestines using an X-ray camera. What does this test involve? Your child will be asked to drink a special drink called barium. This is a white liquid with a chalky texture. It is not radioactive but is used as it shows up well on X-ray images. Your child will need to drink the barium whilst lying on a couch with the X-ray camera over their tummy (about 75cm away). They may need to change position, so you will be asked to stay close to them at all times to make sure they are safe. If your child is able to, they will usually be asked to drink using a straw so that they can stay lying down. If they are not able to use a straw they can drink the barium from a bottle or beaker. If they are currently being fed through a nasogastric (NG) tube, we will use that to give them the barium.

  • Absorption of X-Rays by Lead Glasses and Lead Barium Glasses
    U. S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS RESEARCH PAPER RP870 Part of Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, Volume 16, March 1936 ABSORPTION OF X"RAYS BY LEAD GLASSES AND LEAD BARIUM GLASSES By George Singer ABSTRACT The results of a study of the protective properties of a group of typical flint and barium-flint glasses are reported. In chemical composition, the protective glasses analyzed were found to resemble closely the denser optical flint and barium-flint glasses. The protection coefficients of the glasses were determined by an ionization method; of the various component elements it was found that only lead and barium contribute appreciably to the protective effectiveness of the glasses. For flint glass empirical relations were established between the protection coefficient and the chemical composition, density, and refractivity; for barium­ flint glass an empirical relation is given between the protection coefficient and the lead-oxide and barium-oxide components of the glass.

Noria Alta, Guanajuato C.P. 36050, Mexico 2 Instituto de Química, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Av. Universidad 3000, Ciudad Universitaria, Ciudad de México 04510, Mexico * Correspondence: [email protected] (M.C.-C.); [email protected] (A.M.) Received: 22 June 2019; Accepted: 22 July 2019; Published: 24 July 2019 Abstract: The origin of life from the chemical point of view is an intriguing and fascinating topic, and is of continuous interest. Currently, the chemical elements that are part of the different cellular types from microorganisms to higher organisms have been described. However, although science has advanced in this context, it has not been elucidated yet which were the first chemical elements that gave origin to the first primitive cells, nor how evolution eliminated or incorporated other chemical elements to give origin to other types of cells through evolution. Calcium, barium, and strontium silica-carbonates have been obtained in vitro and named biomorphs, because they mimic living organism structures. Therefore, it is considered that these forms can resemble the first structures that were part of primitive organisms. Hence, the objective of this work was to synthesize biomorphs starting with different mixtures of alkaline earth metals—beryllium (Be2+), magnesium (Mg2+), calcium (Ca2+), barium (Ba2+), and strontium (Sr2+)—in the presence of nucleic acids, RNA and genomic DNA (gDNA).

  • Cesium What Is It? Cesium Is a Soft, Silvery White-Gray Metal That Occurs in Nature Symbol: Cs As Cesium-133
    Human Health Fact Sheet ANL, October 2001 Cesium What Is It? Cesium is a soft, silvery white-gray metal that occurs in nature Symbol: Cs as cesium-133. The natural source yielding the greatest quantity of cesium is the rare mineral pollucite. American ores of pollucite, found in Maine and Atomic Number: 55 South Dakota, contain about 13% cesium oxide. Although it is a metal, (protons in nucleus) cesium melts at the relatively low temperature of 28o C (82o F), so like mercury Atomic Weight: 133 it is liquid at moderate temperatures. This most alkaline of metals reacts (naturally occurring) explosively when it comes in contact with cold water. There are 11 major radioactive isotopes of cesium. (Isotopes are different forms of an element that have the same number of protons in the nucleus but a different number of neutrons.) Only three have half-lives long enough to warrant concern: cesium-134, cesium-135 and cesium-137. Each of these decays by emitting a beta particle, and their half-lives range from about 2 to 2 million years. The half-lives of the other cesium isotopes are less than two weeks. Of these three, the Radioactive Properties of Key Cesium Isotopes isotope of most concern for and an Associated Radionuclide Department of Energy (DOE) Specific Radiation Energy (MeV) Decay environmental management Isotope Half-Life Activity Mode Alpha Beta Gamma sites such as Hanford is (Ci/g) (α) (β) (γ) cesium-137 which has a half- 2.1 yr 1,300 β - 0.16 1.6 life of 30 years.

  • Reactive Metals Hazards Packaging
    Document No: RXM20172301 Publication Date: January 23, 2017 Revised Date: October 25, 2017 Hazard Awareness & Packaging Guidelines for Reactive Metals General Due to recent events resulting from reactive metals handling, CEI personnel and clients are being updated regarding special packaging guidelines designed to protect the safety of our personnel, physical assets, and customer environments. CEI’s Materials Management staff, in conjunction with guidelines from third party disposal outlets, has approved these alternative packaging guidelines to provide for safe storage and transportation of affected materials. This protocol primarily impacts water reactive or potentially water reactive metals in elemental form, although there are many compounds that are also affected. The alkali metals are a group in the periodic table consisting of the chemical elements lithium, sodium , potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium. This group lies in the s-block of the periodic table as all alkali metals have their outermost electron in an s-orbital. The alkali metals provide the best example of group trends in properties in the periodic table, with elements exhibiting well- characterized homologous behavior. The alkali metals have very similar properties: they are all shiny, soft, highly reactive metals at standard temperature and pressure, and readily lose their outermost electron to form cations with charge +1. They can all be cut easily with a knife due to their softness, exposing a shiny surface that tarnishes rapidly in air due to oxidation. Because of their high reactivity, they must be stored under oil to prevent reaction with air, and are found naturally only in salts and never as the free element.
