  2. Arsenic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_acid

    Arsenic acid is slowly formed when arsenic pentoxide is dissolved in water, and when meta- or pyroarsenic acid (H 4 As 2 O 7) is treated with cold water. Arsenic acid can also be prepared directly from elemental arsenic by moistening it and treating with ozone. 2 As + 3 H 2 O + 5 O 3 → 2 H 3 AsO 4 + 5 O 2

  3. Arsenic contamination of groundwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_contamination_of...

    Arsenic contaminated water typically contains arsenous acid and arsenic acid or their derivatives. Their names as "acids" is a formality; these species are not aggressive acids but are merely the soluble forms of arsenic near neutral pH. These compounds are extracted from the underlying rocks that surround the aquifer.

  4. Arsenic compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_compounds

    Arsenic forms colorless, odorless, crystalline oxides As 2 O 3 ("white arsenic") and As 2 O 5 which are hygroscopic and readily soluble in water to form acidic solutions. Arsenic(V) acid is a weak acid and the salts are called arsenates, [5] the most common arsenic contamination of groundwater, and a problem that affects

  5. Arsenic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic

    Arsenic(V) acid is a weak acid and its salts, known as arsenates, [36] are a major source of arsenic contamination of groundwater in regions with high levels of naturally-occurring arsenic minerals. [37]

  6. Arsenic found in bottled water sold by Whole Foods and Walmart

    A recent study by the Center for Environmental Health has revealed high levels of arsenic in two brands of bottled water sold by Whole Foods and Walmart.

  7. Arsenate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenate

    In deoxygenated water, with low pe, arsenite species dominate. [16] [17] Depending on the pH, arsenate can be found as trihydrogen arsenate (that is arsenic acid H 3 AsO 4), dihydrogen arsenate (H 2 AsO − 4), hydrogen arsenate (HAsO 2− 4), or arsenate (AsO 3− 4). [18] Trihydrogen arsenate is also known as arsenic acid.

  8. Arsenic poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenic_poisoning

    Arsenic compounds also disrupt ATP production through several mechanisms. At the level of the citric acid cycle, arsenic inhibits pyruvate dehydrogenase and by competing with phosphate it uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, thus inhibiting energy-linked reduction of NAD+, mitochondrial respiration, and ATP synthesis. Hydrogen peroxide ...

  9. Iron oxide adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_oxide_adsorption

    Arsenic is a common natural contaminant of well water and is highly carcinogenic. Iron oxide adsorption treatment for arsenic in groundwater is a commonly practiced removal process which involves the chemical treatment of arsenic species such that they adsorb onto iron oxides and create larger particles that may be filtered out of the water stream.
