[128] [129] For example, the mold Scopulariopsis brevicaulis produces trimethylarsine if inorganic arsenic is present. [130] The organic compound arsenobetaine is found in some marine foods such as fish and algae, and also in mushrooms in larger concentrations. The average person's intake is about 10–50 μg/day.
Arsenic (33 As) has 32 known isotopes and at least 10 isomers. Only one of these isotopes, 75 As, is stable; as such, it is considered a monoisotopic element. The longest-lived radioisotope is 73 As with a half-life of 80 days.
Nucleosynthesis is the process that creates new atomic nuclei from pre-existing nucleons (protons and neutrons) and nuclei. According to current theories, the first nuclei were formed a few minutes after the Big Bang, through nuclear reactions in a process called Big Bang nucleosynthesis. [1]
Arsenic is a metalloid with an atomic number of 33, and its common oxidation states are +3 or +5, as arsenate(As III) and arsenite(As V). [12] Arsenic is primarily found as organic arsenic compounds, inorganic arsenic compounds, and arsine gas.
For other isotopes, the isotopic mass is usually within 0.1 u of the mass number. For example, 35 Cl (17 protons and 18 neutrons) has a mass number of 35 and an isotopic mass of 34.96885. [7] The difference of the actual isotopic mass minus the mass number of an atom is known as the mass excess, [8] which for 35 Cl is –0.03115.
The group discovered the unfathomable supervoid that is 1.8 billion light-years across, according to Sky News. A section of space of that size would typically house 10,000 galleries.

Aston discovered the whole number rule, that the masses of all the particles have whole number relationships to oxygen-16, [18] which he took to have a mass of exactly 16. [4] (Today the whole-number rule is expressed in multiples of an atomic mass unit (amu) relative to carbon-12. [19]). Significantly, the one exception to this rule was ...
