The FT-IR spectroscopy was performed on pure zinc sulphate crystals to identify the presence of functional groups. The grown crystals have been subjected to powder X-ray diffraction to determine the unit cell dimensions and the crystal structure. The lattice parameters are found to be‚ a = 9.9810 Å‚ b = 7.2500 Å and c = 24.2800 Å‚ respectively. The values were in good agreement with those of the reported values. The

According to recent studies‚ there are less than two hundred thousand cases of bone cancer per year. There are three varieties of bone cancer which are called chondrosarcoma‚ Ewing’s sarcoma‚ and osteosarcoma. The most dangerous out of the three is Ewing’s Sarcoma‚ which only seventy percent out of one hundred survive after five years of the diagnosis. Chondrosarcoma is also very dangerous if it has progressed further before treatment‚ making it only a twenty-five percent survival rate after five
