Identify particular chemical properties of bismuth that suit it for its special role in treating gastric ailments, noting that the stomach environment is highly acidic.
Homework Answers
Bismuth subsalicylate is used as an antacid. Bismuth reduces the flow of fluids and electrolytes into the stomach. Also, it has bactericidal properties which will selectively destroy harmful bacteria. This property makes it a suitable antacid.
Bismuth is the most metallic in the nitrogen group and hence it neutralises the acidic nature of the stomach to the required level.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
