Overview The Tampa Electric Company’s Big Bend Station in Apollo Beach creates a toxic environmental issue for the surrounding communities. Water pollution arising from this plant is slowly poisoning the environment by leaching toxins such as arsenic‚ boron‚ molybdenum‚ mercury‚ chromium‚ and others into the drinking water. The main source of concern for the TECO plant is the use of millions of tons of coal burning continuously to power the plant. The chemicals given off by the plant may cause cancer

Nucleophilic hydride is unstable by itself so it must be used through a hydride reagent such a NaBH4 or LiAlH4. The hydrogen is more electronegative than boron and aluminum giving it a negative charge. This causes the hydrogen to act like a hydride. This is important because it causes it causes it to be selective. A hydride has a negative charge so it will attack the positive carbon in a carbonyl group. This

Chemistry Atomic Structure: The Electron A myriad of trends occur on the periodic table‚ whether it is defined through the size of the atoms or the first ionization energy that may occur‚ many other trends can be found simply looking horizontally or vertically on to the table. As you look from left to right you can see that the reactivity of the elements increase‚ this is due to the number of electrons increasing on the shell. This also once you go down the table; the shells become further and

Properties of Gallium Gallium is a chemical element that is located in Group 13 or the “Boron Group” on the periodic table of the elements. It has the chemical symbol Ga and has an atomic number of 31 meaning it has 31 protons and 31 electrons. The atomic mass of Gallium is 69 meaning it has 38 neutrons. Gallium is a transition metal and was discovered in 1875 by French Chemist Paul Emile Lecoq de Boisbaudran after the element was predicted by Dmitri Mendeleev who created the periodic table of the
