Thallium can enter the body through inhalation, absorption through the skin, or through ingestion. Acute symptoms of thallium exposure include, but are not limited to, stomach pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. More serious neurological symptoms don't appear until days after the metal has been ingested.
A saturated solution of equal parts of thallium(I) formate (Tl(HCO 2)) and thallium(I) malonate (Tl(C 3 H 3 O 4)) in water is known as Clerici solution. It is a mobile, odorless liquid which changes from yellowish to colorless upon reducing the concentration of the thallium salts.
Since thallium(I) sulfate is a simple powder with indistinctive properties, it can easily be mistaken for more innocuous chemicals. It can enter the body by ingestion, inhalation, or through contact with the skin. The thallium(I) cation is very similar to potassium and sodium cations, which are essential for life.
Clerici solution is an aqueous solution of equal parts of thallium formate (Tl(HCO 2)) and thallium malonate (Tl(C 3 H 3 O 4)). It is free-flowing and odorless. Its color fades from yellowish to colorless when diluted. At 4.25 g/cm 3 at 20 °C (68 °F), saturated Clerici
Thallous acetate or thallium(I) acetate is a salt of thallium and acetate with the chemical formula TlCH 3 COO. It is used in microbiology as a selective growth ...
Prussian blue, also known as potassium ferric hexacyanoferrate, is used as a medication to treat thallium poisoning or radioactive caesium poisoning. [1] [2] For thallium it may be used in addition to gastric lavage, activated charcoal, forced diuresis, and hemodialysis. [3] [4] It is given by mouth or nasogastric tube.
n November 1954, 29-year-old Sammy Davis Jr. was driving to Hollywood when a car crash left his eye mangled beyond repair. Doubting his potential as a one-eyed entertainer, the burgeoning performer sought a solution at the same venerable institution where other misfortunate starlets had gone to fill their vacant sockets: Mager & Gougelman, a family-owned business in New York City that has ...
Thallium(I) iodide has the CsCl crystal structure. The monohalides, also known as thallous halides, all contain thallium with oxidation state +1. Parallels can be drawn between the thallium(I) halides and their corresponding silver salts; for example, thallium(I) chloride and bromide are light-sensitive, and thallium(I) fluoride is more soluble in water than the chloride and bromide.
