Protons define the atomic number due to their positive charge and six of them bound in an atomic nucleus is an atomic number of six. This makes the element carbon. It has six orbiting electons which cancel out the charge on the nucleus.

Carbon is the sixth element in the periodic table. Located between boron (B) and nitrogen (N), it is a very stable element. Because it is stable, it can be found both by itself and in many naturally occurring compounds. Scientists describe the three states of carbon as diamond, amorphous, and graphite.

It was first recognized as an element in the second half of the 18th century. Name: A.L. Lavoisier proposed carbon in 1789 from the Latin carbo meaning “charcoal.” A.G. Werner and D.L.G.

That is a mole. So, by definition, the molar mass of CCl4 is saying that it is 153.8 grams of CCl4 for every 6.0*10^23 molecules.

Average human body has 0.2 milligrams of Gold. A human body is composed of many elements. An average person’s body weighing 70 kilograms would contain a total mass of 0.2 milligrams of gold. The trace amount of Gold if turned a solid cube of purified gold will make a cube of 0.22 millimeters in measurement.

“The gold we found was at the level of a minimal mineral deposit,” said co-author Dr Kathleen Smith, from the US Geological Survey (USGS). In addition to gold and silver, human waste also contains amounts of rare earth metals such as palladium and vanadium.

An adult human body weighing 70 kg contains about 0.2 milligrams of gold. It’s been found that the element plays an important health function, helping to maintain our joints, as well as facilitating the transmittal of electrical signals throughout the body.

Non-edible gold leaf, which is used for gilding, sometimes contains copper, which can be toxic in high doses. Consuming impure gold preparations such as colloidal gold or gold salts can lead to a change in skin pigmentation and other adverse health effects. Gold and silver leaf are also certified kosher.
