Document Summary
Class a: chemically as they form ionic bond-low toxicity. Class b: very nasty and toxic-form covalent bond. Most of em are toxic in their organic form as much as they are in their organic forms. they form organometalics?-originally toxic or borderlines. Redox potential-ability to donate or take an electron. Fruits then leaves than stems and roots-most concentration in the roots then upwards. Ex: you will find the most lead conc. If soil has slight contamination than its better to grow grain so that its going to have least. Not carrots coz they are the roots and high conc. You can grow potato too coz potato is not a root its a storage. Mercury is toxic and can also go thru the gloves!. Just some drops that will go on a person is enough to kill an adult. Very toxic its form can kill you but the least toxic state is its liquid state.
