A chemical compound having the formula MgO which appears under the form of a noncombustible, white, alkaline powder, either light or heavy depending upon whether it is prepared by heating magnesium carbonate or the basic magnesium carbonate, is slightly soluble in water, soluble in acids and ammonium salt solutions, insoluble in alcohol, combines with water to form magnesium hydroxide, occurs naturally as the mineral periclase, is derived(1) by calcining magnesium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide,(2) by treating magnesium chloride with lime and heating or by heating it in air,(3) from seawater via the hydroxide, and is used as an inorganic rubber accelerator, a polycrystalline ceramic for aircraft windshields, in refractories, especially for steel furnace linings, for electrical insulation, in fertilizers, oxychloride and oxysulfate cements, paper manufacture, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, semiconductors, for the removal of sulfur dioxide from stack gases and as a feed additive and in the food industry(mainly for the deacidification of butter, cooa, and some canned or frozen foods).  7, record 1, English, - magnesium%20oxide

In most instances, the iron is bound to sulfur(s) from cysteine residues in polypeptide backbone and also to inorganic sulfurs in the iron-sulfur cluster. The chief role of the iron-sulfur cluster is to facilitate electron transfer, while in others, the clusters contribute to catalytic function.  6, record 2, English, - inorganic%20sulfur%20compound

Tin is a metal which can combine with other chemicals to form compounds. When tin is combined with chemicals such as chlorine, sulfur, or oxygen, it is called an inorganic tin compound. Inorganic tin compounds are found in small amounts in the earth's crust. They are present in toothpaste, perfumes, soaps, coloring agents, and dyes. Tin can also combine with carbon-containing materials to form organotin compounds. These compounds are used in making plastics, food packages, plastic pipes, pesticides, paints, wood preservatives, and rodent(rats and mice) repellents. There can be tin metal, as well as inorganic and organic tin compounds in the air, water, and soil near places where they are naturally present in the rocks, mined, manufactured, or used.  3, record 3, English, - inorganic%20tin%20compound

Mercury combines with other elements, such as chlorine, sulfur, or oxygen, to form inorganic mercury compound or "salts. "Most inorganic mercury compounds are white powder or crystals. Mercury also combines with carbon to make organic mercury compounds.... Inorganic mercury(metallic mercury and inorganic mercury compounds) enters the air mining ore deposits, burning coal and waste, and from manufacturing plants. It enters the water or soil from natural deposits, disposal of water, and the use of mercury-containing fungicides.  3, record 4, English, - inorganic%20mercury%20compound
