Deadliest Poisons (soft-skill)











This idea inspired by a serial comic from Japan called Conan, a.k.a detective Conan. It has so many stories about a person murdered by a poison. So i did some research on Google, and start writing my second soft skill assignment. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!

1. CYANIDE


Cyanide is a chemical compound containing a Cyano group with the third carbon atom bonded to a nitrogen atom. Recognizable because of the smell like Almond (often shows in a Japan Serial Comic "Conan"). 
CN groups can be found in many compounds. Some are gases, and the other is Solid or a Liquid, or it could be like Salt, some are Covalent, Several are molecular, Ionic, and Polymeric. Cyanide is very Toxic.
Cyanide kills by preventing red blood cells from absorbing Oxygen. This process known as "Internal shortness of breath". Cyanide capsule allegedly used by spies in world war 2. 
Cassava contains HCN (Hydrogen Cyanide), especially a cassava with bitter taste. That is why people can throw up and get drunk after eating cassava. But there's no need to worry about it, the cassava that we usually buy at the supermarket is a cassava that has a low HCN levels. 




2. STRYCHNINE







Do you guys know that Strychnine is one of the most popular forms of toxins in the early twentieth century? Strychnine attacks the central nervous system and causes an excessive reflex reaction. with the correct dose, victim can die within ten to twenty minutes! amazing right? Strychnine is a poison that acts fast, effective treatment now may not exist and it can only be seen as an efficient murder weapon and a very old-fashioned 
murder show. 



3.ARSENIC



Arsenic is one of the most favorite killer poison and has always been the one of the most favorite devices used in a murder mystery story! in the UK, Arsenic is available as a free poison that can be purchased at a pharmacy to assist pets rodents. i guess this might be the only poison that has a positive side. Arsenic compound present in all normal human tissues, and Arsenic is one of the 20 elements that are most frequently encountered. when Arsenic is used as a poison, the effect of this poison will lead to stomach discomfort, vomiting and a diarrhea with blood. sounds bad right? 



4. HEMLOCK




well, this poison doesn't look bad at all. as you can see, Hemlock is a poison that used to kill a Socrates, Greek philosopher. Hemlock was found in the highest concentrations of toxins, which are obtained from the roots of plants. one bite of this beautiful flower can cause DEATH in adults. it leads to your muscle failure, ultimately death. 




5. SNAKES

The most poisonous snake is Viper, Cobra and Adders. It causes a symptoms such as, swelling, organ failure, vomiting, bleeding from the eyes, nose and gums or a pain at the right place where the snake bites. watch out from poisonous snakes!

In cases in 25 states (mainly in the south and west-central) Fiddleback bite is usually painless but after eight hours, the victim will be in pain! just a small bite will cause symptoms of vomiting, blisters, and necrosis Delirium! scary right?
