Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 Umm, a gram of francium would kill everyone within a couple of blocks with radiation poisoning. That's femto- or attograms they sell it (as decay producst, as you might understand). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_73 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 still you carnt beat the price of francium 1g for £30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 "they sell ethylene perchlorate there as well." And what's that good for? I've never heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_73 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 what would you store francium in because there its been stored in a glass vial but if its so radioactive surley you would store it in a lead container Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budullewraagh Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 um...it would decay before it got to your house anyway "they sell ethylene perchlorate there as well." And what's that good for? I've never heard of it. well, imagine an organic perchlorate. think about it for awhile... it reduces SO easily it's rediculous. as a result it is an incredibly powerful oxidizing agent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_73 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 plus most probably increadably dangerous all organic explosives or oxidisers are dangerous. well why on earth do they sell it if it would decay before it got to my house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 *Sigh* How many times do I have to explain this? It's like 0.1 attograms / gram of the substance within the ampoule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_73 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 so its fine if its in an ampoule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 Yes, since it's such a minimal quantity. "well why on earth do they sell it if it would decay before it got to my house" As I already said, it's a DECAY PRODUCT. So, at every given moment, 0.1 attograms of francium exists for each gram of the substance in the ampoule. So, if you had 10 grams of it, you would have 1 attogram of francium at every given moment.

Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 If you lived in a house made of the stuff, perhaps then it would cause some harm then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boris_73 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 if i lived i a house of the stuff i wouldnt go near the house especially if it started to rain:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilded Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 If you mean with the rain thing the reaction of francium with water, it doesn't really matter since even in a 100 ton amount of the stuff, there wouldn't even be a visible amount of it.
